SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Writers managing novels, screenplays, or serialized fiction struggle to keep characters, plot structure, timelines, and chapter content consistent across many markdown files. This Skill provides structured workflows for character development, story planning, chapter writing, and automated consistency and timeline checking. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Character Development: Build deep character profiles with backstories, arcs, relationships, and voice using a dedicated reference framework. - Story Planning & Structure: Outline plots using Three-Act Structure, Hero's Journey, or Save the Cat beat sheets tailored to genre. - Chapter & Scene Writing: Generate chapters with scene/sequel structure, POV headers, and timeline markers that maintain continuity. - Automated Analysis Scripts: Run timeline_tracker.py and consistency_checker.py to detect chronological gaps, age contradictions, and name inconsistencies. - Use Case: A novelist asks "Check my story for consistency" — the Skill runs the consistency checker, flags that Maya is 18 in her profile but 21 in Chapter 3, and offers to fix the contradiction. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to check the consistency of your story project and fix any contradictions it finds.

Run the consistency_checker.py script from the project root with the project directory as an argument. It scans character profiles and chapter files, then reports age discrepancies, physical description contradictions, and name capitalization variations ranked by severity.

How do I track a story timeline in markdown files?▼

Use the timeline_tracker.py script, which extracts time markers like "Day 3" or "**Timeline:**" headers from chapter files. It outputs a chronological event list grouped by character and chapter, plus warnings for events missing time markers.

The story structures reference covers Three-Act Structure, Hero's Journey, and Save the Cat beat sheets, plus genre-specific frameworks for mystery, romance, and fantasy. It also includes scene/sequel structure and pacing guidelines by genre.

The skill detects common patterns like characters/, chapters/, story-planning/, and summary.md, including capitalized variants like Characters/ or Scenes/. If no structure exists, it recommends organizing files into characters, chapters, story-planning, and a summary file.

The checker catches physical attribute contradictions, age discrepancies, and name variations, but cannot detect subtle personality inconsistencies, complex plot logic errors, or thematic contradictions. Manual review remains necessary for deep narrative consistency.
