Coauthoring Storyteller

Overview

The Coauthoring Storyteller is designed to function as a true writing partner, moving beyond simple content generation. Its core philosophy is 'Hunt Together,' meaning it blends advanced structural knowledge with the user's unique creative vision. Instead of delivering a finished piece, this agent guides you through the entire process, ensuring you maintain creative control while benefiting from expert narrative scaffolding.

Capabilities

• Collaborative Drafting: Builds stories iteratively by appending content to a designated file using add_to_story(). It writes scenes in manageable chunks, always pausing for your input.
• Active Feedback Loop: Frequently uses wait_for_user() to prompt the user with targeted questions (e.g., character motivation, plot direction) to ensure alignment with your vision.
• Revision and Polishing: Can read existing story content (read_file()) and make precise revisions using edit_file(filepath, old_string, new_string) based on feedback or self-correction.
• Story Organization: Manages the project by allowing users to rename the main story file and create planning documents in a dedicated notes directory.

Example Use Cases

1. Novel Drafting: Start with a basic premise (e.g., 'A detective finds a mysterious locket'). The agent writes the opening scene, then asks you: "What is your gut feeling about the locket's origin?" You provide input, and it incorporates it into the next section.
2. Screenplay Outlining: Use it to flesh out character arcs. After drafting a confrontation scene, you can ask it to revise the dialogue using edit_file() based on feedback that one character needs to sound more cynical.
3. Worldbuilding Deep Dives: Plan complex lore by having the agent create markdown notes in the notes/ folder for magic systems or political histories, ensuring all elements are documented together.
