novel-writer_skill

Overview

This skill is an AI assistant built for long-form web fiction creation and lifecycle management. It guides users from initial world and character setup through chapter generation, iterative revisions, and automated quality control. The tool enforces document naming, state synchronization, and consistent output formats to keep large projects organized.

How this skill works

The skill accepts structured inputs (title, protagonist, synopsis, core character list) and generates a complete initial setting and story roadmap in Markdown. After user confirmation it creates per-volume guides and generates full chapters as TXT files (single chapter ≥ 4000 words). Each output triggers automated consistency checks, a quality audit, and state synchronization that updates character files and relationship maps.

When to use it

• Starting a new long-form novel with structured setup and planning
• Converting an outline into full chapters while preserving world rules
• Iteratively refining character sheets, worldbuilding, or volume guides
• Adding or revising individual chapters with automatic cross-checks
• Maintaining consistency across many volumes and serialized releases

Best practices

• Provide clear initial inputs: title, protagonist name, full synopsis, and core character traits
• Approve or iterate on the initial setting before chapter generation to lock core logic
• When requesting edits, specify the target module and exact modification direction
• Respond to clarification prompts to resolve ambiguous or conflicting requirements
• Keep naming conventions intact to ensure automated state sync and traceability

Example use cases

• Create a new serialized web novel: generate worldbuilding, full-volume guides, then auto-produce chapter files
• Polish an existing book module: select a module (world, characters, outline) and request AI optimization
• Add a new chapter that auto-reads current outlines and character states, then appends a TXT chapter file
• Revise a published chapter: AI rewrites per feedback while preserving core settings and triggers QC
• Run automated quality audits after any generation to get a marked-up document and sync logs
