A Codex skill for fiction planning, chapter drafting, scene continuation, and revision that stays concrete about narrative problems instead of giving vague workshop-style feedback.
This skill is meant for longform fiction work where narrative judgment matters.
It helps Codex:
Use this repo when the task is mainly about fiction craft:
If your main problem is project recovery, chapter-state tracking, or workspace governance across a large novel, use novel-project-strategy alongside this skill.
Use novel-writing. Review this chapter and give concrete findings with locations, not vague feedback.Plan a chapter that introduces the rival clearly and moves the relationship forward.Continue this scene without flattening the author's voice or cutting style-bearing detail.Manual install:
git clone https://github.com/wgwtest/novel-writing.git
mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills
cp -R novel-writin
# Novel Writing [](https://github.com/wgwtest/novel-writing) [](https://github.com/wgwtest/novel-writing/stargazers) [](https://github.com/wgwtest/novel-writing/releases) [](./LICENSE) A Codex skill for fiction planning, chapter drafting, scene continuation, and revision that stays concrete about narrative problems instead of giving vague workshop-style feedback. ## Why Use It This skill is meant for longform fiction work where narrative judgment matters. It helps Codex: - plan chapters and scenes with actual narrative function - draft or continue fiction prose without collapsing everything into summary - review prose with concrete findings instead of soft impressions - protect style-bearing material during revision - check whether scenes obey realism and access limits ## Good Fit Use this repo when the task is mainly about fiction craft: - chapter or scene planning - prose continuation - rewrite while preserving voice - structural review of a chapter - character introduction quality - realism constraints inside a scene If your main problem is project recovery, chapter-state tracking, or workspace governance across a large novel, use [novel-project-strategy](https://github.com/wgwtest/novel-project-strategy) alongside this skill. ## Example Prompts - `Use novel-writing. Review this chapter and give concrete findings with locations, not vague feedback.` - `Plan a chapter that introduces the rival clearly and moves the relationship forward.` - `Continue this scene without flattening the author's voice or cutting style-bearing detail.` ## Install Manual install: ```bash git clone https://github.com/wgwtest/novel-writing.git mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills cp -R novel-writin
