Long-Form Novel Generator

Problem

Long-form writing often drifts in character, leaves foreshadowing unresolved, or loses pacing. This skill breaks novel creation into reviewable stages, so the model works under explicit constraints for genre, cast structure, ending style, and length instead of emitting one uncontrolled block of text.

How it works

Preference collection
- Confirm genre, character architecture, ending style, and length
- Use templates for protagonist-plus-supporting, protagonist-versus-antagonist, or ensemble casts

Character design and outline
- Complete key details for the protagonist, supporting cast, or antagonist
- Generate a title, world summary, three-act roadmap, and chapter plan
- Wait for user confirmation before drafting chapters

Chapter generation and export
- Produce 1-3 chapters per round, each about 2000-5000 words
- Advance plot, emotional, and thematic threads together
- Write the completed novel to novel_{title}.txt

Boundary

Best for iterative creative work where settings and outline need review. If genre or character information is missing, the skill fills the setup first; it is not intended for skipping outline confirmation and dumping an entire long novel in one pass.
