4 use cases

  • Break a multi-episode series into acts and act outs

    Get an act-by-act breakdown with act outs for each episode of your series, using the series structure skill.

    View prompt
    Using the screenwriting-skills repo (sw-series-structure), read the series outline in <path or pasted text> and produce an act breakdown for each episode with act-out and cliffhanger placements. Verify that every episode lists a teaser or cold open and at least one act-out before returning the result.

  • Rewrite on-the-nose dialogue in a scene

    Revise a scene whose characters say exactly what they feel, using the dialogue and scene craft skills together.

    View prompt
    Using the screenwriting-skills repo (sw-dialogue and sw-scene-craft), revise the scene in <pasted scene text> so that the characters stop stating their feelings directly and the conflict shows in action. Return the revised scene and a list of changed lines with reasons. Verify that the character names and the scene's facts are unchanged.

  • Turn a long novel into a series episode outline

    Convert a long manuscript into a numbered episode outline with a series engine and bible, using the Chinese series skill.

    View prompt
    Using the screenwriting-skills repo (sw-chinese-series-practice and sw-series-engine-bible), read <novel synopsis or file> and produce a series engine statement plus a numbered episode outline for <target episode count> episodes. Verify that each episode has a distinct turn and that the engine statement is stated before the episode list.

  • Track a screenplay project's stage across sessions

    Use the workflow orchestrator and a story bible file to keep your screenplay's stage and decisions between chats.

    View prompt
    Using the screenwriting-skills repo (sw-workflow), set up a project for <project name> and create a story bible file that tracks the current stage, settled decisions and open questions. Verify at the start of each new session that the agent reads the file and states the current stage before writing anything.
