  abstract     = {{Notation frameworks have long existed to help structure propositional logic, and to map out philosophical arguments. Similar frameworks exist for outlining long texts and scaffolding manuscript drafting. These frameworks are helpful in structuring texts and developing drafts, yet can still leave the draft with hidden incoherence. To address this gap I propose ArgMap, a notation system based on category theory that explicitly models a reader’s knowledge state and casts claims as processes, or morphisms, that operate on, and change those reader states. The notation enriches claims with types (Empirical, Theoretical, Review, or Bare), and supports workflow status indeces (stub, drafted, cited, complete). The underlying categorical model is presented along with the notation; a full worked example is provided in the appendix.}},
