How this template works
How this works
Chapters with a manuscript board (Outline → Draft → Revised → Done), Research Notes linked to chapters, Appearances (podcasts, talks) and Launch Tasks for the campaign.
The loop
Write in the chapter's rich text; move it across the board; park every source in Research Notes linked where it's used.
Then put an agent on it
A chapter entering Draft can wake an agent that proposes pacing and continuity notes against the chapters either side of it.
It runs on your own Claude or ChatGPT over MCP — never metered, never marked up — and every move it makes waits at an approval gate. How agent runs work →
