Ghostwriter Pro is an agent skill from Ckokoski/AuthorAgent. Advanced AI co-writing with scene generation, pacing analysis, tension mapping, and chapter assembly
Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Media & Creative. The repository describes itself as: The Autonomous AI Writing Agent — a secure, author-focused AI for fiction and nonfiction authors (Planning, Revision, Promotion, and more). The licence is MIT.
6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 47e9570. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are yaml).
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Ghostwriter Pro loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 29 tokens; SKILL.md has 281 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Generate complete scenes with cinematic precision:
scene:
chapter: 12
pov_character: "Elena"
location: "The Compound - Server Room"
time: "2:47 AM"
goal: "Elena needs to access the encrypted files before Marcus returns"
conflict: "The security system is smarter than she expected"
outcome: "She gets partial data but triggers a silent alarm"
emotional_arc: "confident → frustrated → desperate → terrified"
beats:
- Elena picks the lock (confident, practiced)
- First firewall falls easily (too easy?)
- Second layer is military-grade (frustration)
- She improvises a bypass (desperation, creativity)
- Gets partial files downloading
- Hears footsteps (terror)
- Grabs what she has and runs
sensory_focus: "cold server room, blue LED light, humming drives, her own heartbeat"
plant_or_payoff: "Plant: the partial data will be crucial in Chapter 18"Paste a chapter and get a visual pacing breakdown:

Avg Sentence Length by Section:

Climax: ██████ 7 words (punchy, urgent)

✅ Pacing verdict: Strong thriller pacing
⚠️ Suggestion: Cooldown might be too short — reader needs more breathMaps tension across an entire manuscript:

Advanced AI co-writing with scene generation, pacing analysis, tension mapping, and chapter assembly. Ghostwriter Pro is an agent skill from Ckokoski/AuthorAgent.
Ghostwriter Pro fits situations like: media & Creative work in your project.
Run `npx skills add Ckokoski/AuthorAgent --skill ghostwriter-pro -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/_archived/premium/ghostwriter-pro in Ckokoski/AuthorAgent) into .claude/skills/ghostwriter-pro in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add Ckokoski/AuthorAgent --skill ghostwriter-pro -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (skills/_archived/premium/ghostwriter-pro in Ckokoski/AuthorAgent) into .agents/skills/ghostwriter-pro in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add Ckokoski/AuthorAgent --skill ghostwriter-pro -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/ghostwriter-pro, .gemini/skills/ghostwriter-pro, .github/skills/ghostwriter-pro and .opencode/skills/ghostwriter-pro in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Ghostwriter Pro is instructions for the agent only.
SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Ghostwriter Pro is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 1.2k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 5k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
