What problem does it solve?
Long-form fiction, screenplays, and multi-chapter productions accumulate character inconsistencies: out-of-character behavior, conflicting relationships, wardrobe or injury mismatches, broken motivations, and setting contradictions across chapters. This Skill systematically detects these issues with cited evidence instead of impressionistic judgment.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Traceable Character Timelines: Builds first-fact records and time-ordered state logs per character, tracking what each character knows, wants, and can do at every story node.
- Classified Conflict Detection: Separately audits identity facts, relationships, goals, knowledge boundaries, and physical state, distinguishing true contradictions from reasonable growth, deliberate deception, or unrevealed information.
- Minimal-Impact Revisions: Proposes at least one minimal fix per confirmed conflict that preserves plot intent, and re-checks that fixes do not introduce new timeline or causality problems.
- Use Case: Before production, feed a multi-chapter script or storyboard set to the auditor and receive a character state table, a severity-ranked conflict list with before/after evidence, and a stable-facts list to seed the character bible.
Quick Start
Ask the agent to audit the character continuity of the attached novel chapters or script and output a conflict list with evidence and minimal revision suggestions.
