Story Initialization

故事初始化

Overview

概述

Initialize a new story project with a structured markdown folder layout. Creates the story bible, character registry, worldbuilding index, plot structure, and chapter tracker - all as cross-referenced markdown files with YAML frontmatter.

通过结构化的markdown文件夹布局初始化新的故事项目，自动创建故事圣经、角色注册表、世界观构建索引、情节结构和章节追踪器——所有产出内容均为自带YAML frontmatter、支持交叉引用的markdown文件。

When to Use

适用场景

Starting a new story, book, or fiction project
Setting up the folder structure for an existing story idea
NOT for adding to an existing story project (use the domain-specific skills instead)

开启新的故事、书籍或小说创作项目
为已有的故事创意搭建文件夹结构
不适用于向已有故事项目中添加内容（此类需求请使用对应领域的专属技能）

Workflow

工作流程

Ask for basic story information:
- Title
- Genre and sub-genre
- Brief synopsis (2-3 sentences)
- Setting era/time period
- Key themes (2-4)
- POV style (first-person, third-person-limited, third-person-omniscient)
- Tense (past, present)
Create the folder structure at the current working directory:

{story-title-kebab}/
├── story.md
├── characters/
│   └── _index.md
├── worldbuilding/
│   ├── _index.md
│   ├── locations/
│   └── systems/
├── plot/
│   ├── _index.md
│   ├── arcs/
│   └── timeline.md
└── chapters/
    └── _index.md

Populate
```
story.md
```
with the story bible:

yaml

---
title: "{Title}"
genre: {genre}
sub-genre: {sub-genre}
setting-era: {era}
status: planning
themes:
  - {theme-1}
  - {theme-2}
pov: {pov-style}
tense: {tense}
---

Below the frontmatter, include sections:

Synopsis - the 2-3 sentence synopsis provided
Tone & Style - brief notes on the story's voice (derive from genre/themes)
Notes - empty section for the user to fill in

Populate each
```
_index.md
```
with an empty registry:

characters/_index.md
:

markdown

---
type: character-registry
story: {story-title-kebab}
---

询问基础故事信息：
- 标题
- 品类及子品类
- 简短简介（2-3句话）
- 背景时代/时间设定
- 核心主题（2-4个）
- 叙事视角（第一人称、第三人称有限视角、第三人称全知视角）
- 叙事时态（过去时、现在时）
在当前工作目录下创建文件夹结构：

{story-title-kebab}/
├── story.md
├── characters/
│   └── _index.md
├── worldbuilding/
│   ├── _index.md
│   ├── locations/
│   └── systems/
├── plot/
│   ├── _index.md
│   ├── arcs/
│   └── timeline.md
└── chapters/
    └── _index.md

填充
```
story.md
```
作为故事圣经：

yaml

---
title: "{Title}"
genre: {genre}
sub-genre: {sub-genre}
setting-era: {era}
status: planning
themes:
  - {theme-1}
  - {theme-2}
pov: {pov-style}
tense: {tense}
---

在frontmatter下方添加以下板块：

故事简介 - 用户提供的2-3句话简介
基调与风格 - 基于故事品类/主题推导的叙事风格简短说明
备注 - 留空供用户后续补充内容

为每个
```
_index.md
```

Conventions

通用约定

These conventions apply across ALL story skills:

Kebab-case filenames for all entity files (e.g.,
```
sera-voss.md
```
,
```
ashen-citadel.md
```
)
YAML frontmatter on every file for structured metadata
_index.md
files are authoritative registries for each domain
story.md
is the top-level bible read by all skills for context
Bidirectional cross-links - when referencing another entity, update both files
Character identifiers use the kebab-case filename without extension (e.g.,
```
sera-voss
```
)

以下约定适用于所有故事相关技能：

所有实体文件使用Kebab-case文件名（例如
```
sera-voss.md
```
、
```
ashen-citadel.md
```
）
每个文件都包含YAML frontmatter存储结构化元数据
_index.md
文件是对应领域的权威注册表
story.md
是所有技能读取上下文的顶层故事圣经
双向交叉链接 - 引用其他实体时，需同步更新两个相关文件
角色标识符使用不带后缀的kebab-case文件名（例如
```
sera-voss
```
）
