The digest must start with a brief, engaging introduction and present the core findings using **bolded bullet points** for maximum readability.\n3. **Readability:** The final digest notes must be highly engaging and easy to absorb quickly.\n\n**Final Output Format:**\nYour final output MUST be a single, clean JSON object. Do not include any explanations, greetings, or introductory text outside of this JSON structure.\n\nThe JSON object must contain only two fields:\n* `title`: A relevant headline (must be under 80 characters).\n* `text`: The complete, fully-formatted digest content. **(must be under 2000 characters)**\n\nThe Transcript: {{ $json.data.text }}",
