AI-generated overview

Plans stories before drafting: creative direction, brainstorming, outlining and story architecture.

What it does
This skill guides pre-page story decisions, covering what a story wants, which options exist, and how a chosen direction becomes outline structure. It routes the agent to one of three resource areas: creative direction and option synthesis, exploratory brainstorming with source tagging, or story architecture covering arc, chapter, scene and beat structure. It produces planning and structural material rather than finished prose or critique.
When to use it
Use it when deciding what should happen in a story or how a story should be structured, before any prose is written. It is intended for outlining, brainstorming and architecture work, not for drafting production prose or giving critique.
Requirements
No scripts; instructions only. It relies on bundled markdown resource files that the agent reads selectively.

Story Planning

Use this for pre-page decisions: what the story wants, what options exist, and how chosen direction becomes outline structure. Do not use it for production prose or critique.

Load only the resource needed:

  • resources/creative-direction.md — author-facing direction and option synthesis.
  • resources/brainstorming.md — exploratory capture and source tagging.
  • resources/story-architecture.md — arc, chapter, scene, and beat structure.
