What problem does it solve?

Keeps a safe, auditable record of a novel project's state by creating snapshots that capture memory, chapters, and events, enabling easy rollback during rewriting, planning, or major revisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Create snapshots before major revisions to preserve a stable baseline
  • Restore to a previous snapshot with an automatic backup of the current state
  • List and inspect snapshots with metadata and a clear recovery path
  • Snapshot metadata stored under .snapshots with per-snapshot memory, chapters, and events

Quick Start

Describe the current project state and request a snapshot to back up memory, chapters, and events.

FAQPage Schema
How do I backup novel chapters before a major revision?

Creating a project snapshot saves your novel's current memory, chapters, and events into a backup baseline. This allows you to safely rewrite or plan major revisions and easily rollback if regressions occur.

What is the best way to version chapters and track novel progress?

Versioning chapters and tracking novel progress is best done by creating snapshots that capture memory, chapters, and events. This maintains an auditable record with metadata stored under a .snapshots directory for clear recovery paths.

How do I restore a previous version of my novel project?

Restoring a previous novel version involves selecting a snapshot to rollback to, which automatically backs up your current state first. This safely recovers memory, chapters, and events without losing recent progress.

Can I use Python scripts to manage novel project backups?

You can use Python scripts to manage novel project backups by executing file operations and copying directories. The script maintains snapshot metadata within a .snapshots directory to preserve memory, chapters, and events.

Do I need Python to create snapshots of novel memory and events?

Python is required to run the snapshot scripts that perform file operations and copy directories for your novel project. These scripts maintain the .snapshots metadata to backup and restore memory, chapters, and events.
