SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill automates the creation of a fully formed worldbuilding entity by applying a chosen template, ensuring consistent structure and ready-to-edit content.

Core Features & Use Cases

Template-driven creation: maps an entity type to the appropriate template (e.g., City.md for settlements, Deity.md for gods).
Structured frontmatter & content: fills required fields (name, status) and generates all sections, prompts, and image prompts for immediate use.
World-wide linking: generates reciprocal connections and references to other entities and worlds for coherent worldbuilding.

Quick Start

To begin, issue the create-entity command to generate a city named Ironhold in the Eldermyr world and save it under Worlds/Eldermyr/Settlements/Ironhold.md.
