Although debiased LLMs perform well on known bias patterns, they often fail to generalize to unfamiliar bias prompts, producing toxic outputs. We first validate that such high-bias prompts constitute a \emph{distribution shift} via OOD detection, and show static models degrade under this shift. To adapt on-the-fly, we propose \textbf{CAP-TTA}, a test-time adaptation framework that performs context-aware LoRA updates only when the bias-risk \emph{trigger} exceeds a threshold, using a precomputed diagonal \emph{preconditioner} for fast and stable updates. Across toxic-prompt settings and benchmarks, CAP-TTA reduces bias (confirmed by human evaluation) while achieving much lower update latency than AdamW/SGD; it also mitigates catastrophic forgetting by significantly improving narrative fluency over SOTA debiasing baseline while maintaining comparable debiasing effectiveness.

A two stage novel generation framework (outline -> section outline -> manuscript) is widely used in long novel generation,(e.g., \textsc{DOME}, \textsc{Plan\&Write}, \textsc{Long Writer}), but study of such framework in ultra long novel(>1M words) reconstruction is little. Building on recent text compression methods (\textsc{LLMZip}, \textsc{LLM2Vec}), we conduct an information-theoretic analysis to quantify semantic distortion under different compression-expansion ratios. We examine how outline length affects information preservation. Experiments on ultra-long novels show that the optimal compression-expansion ratio significantly reduces semantic distortion compared to other non-optimal compression-expansion ratio.
