Story Arc Builder

Building a story arc from a concept involves processing a story concept file to generate a comprehensive arc architecture. This defines act progression, character trajectories, subplot maps, and thematic pressure points to establish a structural skeleton for development.

Narrative arc architecture is the structural skeleton of a story generated from a basic concept. It includes detailed act progression, character trajectories, subplot mapping, and thematic development to guide subsequent writing and scene outlining.

Yes, you need a story concept file like canon/story-concept.md before generating a narrative structure. The Skill processes this input to architect the complete story arc and outputs the resulting structure to a canon/story-arc.md artifact.

Yes, you can map character trajectories and subplots simultaneously when structuring your plot. The generated arc architecture integrates subplot maps and character evolution alongside act progression and thematic pressure points.

The best way to establish a structural skeleton for scene outlining is to generate a full story arc architecture. This converts your initial concept into defined act progression and thematic pressure points, providing the necessary foundation for writing individual scenes.
