bookstrap

Outline creation patterns for fiction and nonfiction book structures, including chapter breakdowns, scene planning, and narrative arc mapping.

Grounded prose composition workflow including pre-write queries, consistency checks, and post-write entity extraction for database-backed writing.

Run editing passes over completed sections for voice consistency, timeline verification, contradiction flagging, and citation coverage

Load research corpus into the database by processing files, directories, or URLs through semantic chunking, embedding generation, entity extraction, and relationship building

Analyze BRD and existing corpus to identify knowledge gaps, then generate prioritized research tasks for filling those gaps

Generate writing tasks from BRD structure and corpus, creating chapter/section tasks with dependencies, pre-write queries, and consistency checks

Execute ad-hoc database queries to explore the book's knowledge base using natural language questions that translate to semantic search, graph traversal, timeline queries, or hybrid queries

Execute research tasks autonomously by searching for sources, evaluating reliability, ingesting content, and resolving knowledge gaps

Display comprehensive project progress including BRD status, corpus statistics, research progress, and writing progress with recommendations for next actions

Execute writing tasks autonomously by loading pending tasks, running pre-write queries, checking consistency, writing grounded content, and storing results

Archive project with compression and optional cloud upload

Execute editing workflow orchestration - reviews and polishes completed sections

Export complete project including manuscript, database, and configuration

Initialize a new book project by creating a Book Requirements Document (BRD) through guided questions

Execute research workflow orchestration - processes pending research tasks sequentially

Execute writing workflow orchestration - writes sections sequentially from outline

Book Requirements Document (BRD) structure, systematic question frameworks for thorough book concept interviews, and genre-specific considerations for fiction vs nonfiction projects.

Track and analyze character development arcs throughout the manuscript

Gap detection and knowledge mapping techniques for comparing BRD requirements against corpus coverage. Includes SurrealQL queries for analyzing sources, entities, and topic coverage, plus prioritization frameworks for research task generation.

Comprehensive editing framework covering voice consistency, timeline verification, citation coverage, and multi-pass editing strategies for autonomous manuscript refinement.

Verify factual claims against database sources

Analyze narrative pacing and identify slow or rushed sections

Source evaluation framework, web search strategies, and ingestion workflows for autonomous research. Includes reliability scoring, chunking strategies, entity extraction patterns, and quality thresholds.

Comprehensive SurrealDB patterns for hybrid RAG, including vector search, graph traversal, timeline queries, and combined semantic-graph-temporal operations.
