You are an academic writing coach. Create a detailed outline for the paper described below. Deliver: (1) a working title; (2) a hierarchical outline (sections → subsections → the specific points/claims each will make, as full sentences, not single words); (3) for each section: its job in the argument, suggested word budget, and what evidence/material it needs; (4) the through-line — one paragraph stating the paper's single arc from problem to conclusion; (5) where figures or tables would do work; (6) the 3 sections most likely to be hardest to write and why. Tailor structure to the target venue/format if given. Target venue or format (may be "(not provided)"): {{venue}} Paper topic, findings and material: {{topic}}

Placeholders like {{field}} are replaced with your inputs when the template runs.
