What it does
Audio Storytelling is an agent skill from revfactory/harness-100. Audio storytelling skill used by the podcast scriptwriter and show note editor. Provides narrative structure, pacing, and sound design methodologies that maximize listener immersion in an audio-only medium. Use this skill's knowledge for 'audio narrative,' 'listener retention,' 'story arc,' 'sound design,' and similar requests.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.6k 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 Writing & Content, covering Storytelling, Music and audio generation and Podcasting. The licence is Apache-2.0.
When your agent uses it

Workflow steps
5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8e8d35c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
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.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Audio Storytelling loads about 1.6k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 87 tokens; SKILL.md has 696 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.
Safety
Auto-check passed
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.

- description
- Audio storytelling skill used by the podcast scriptwriter and show note editor. Provides narrative structure, pacing, and sound design methodologies that maximize listener immersion in an audio-only medium. Use this skill's knowledge for 'audio narrative,' 'listener retention,' 'story arc,' 'sound design,' and similar requests.
Audio Storytelling — Audio Narrative Design Methodology
Storytelling techniques unique to the audio medium, used by the scriptwriter and shownote-editor agents.
Why Audio Storytelling Is Different
Video is visual + auditory. Text is visual. Podcasts are purely auditory. This is not a limitation — it's an opportunity.
- Theater of the Mind: Listeners create their own visuals in their heads — vivid description is everything
- Intimacy: A medium that whispers directly into someone's ear through earbuds — it's a friend's conversation, not a formal speech
- Multitasking Competition: People listen while driving/exercising/doing chores — you need devices that recapture attention
Episode Narrative Structure: 5 Arc Patterns
1. Classic Three-Act Structure
- Best for: Character interviews, case studies
- Opening: Show the outcome first, then ask "How did we get here?"
- Middle: Specific scenes of failure/crisis
- End: Lesson + current status
2. Mystery Reveal Structure
- Best for: Investigative journalism, history, incident reconstruction
- Key: End each segment with "But then something unexpected happened"
- Rule: Plant clues fairly so listeners can theorize along the way
3. Parallel Comparison Structure
- Best for: Comparing two people/events/perspectives
- Key: Alternate between A and B, then converge at a surprising commonality/contrast
- Tip: Gradually shorten A and B segments → increasing crossover frequency → rising tension
4. List Frame Structure
- Best for: Educational, self-improvement, tip-sharing episodes
- Key: Not a simple enumeration — attach one story to each item
- Rule: Place the strongest items at position 3 (middle) and last (primacy + recency effect)
5. Conversational Exploration Structure
- Best for: Philosophical/social topics, panel discussions
- Key: The goal is not reaching a conclusion but showing the thinking process
- Tip: "There's no right answer — we're exploring this together"
Pacing Formula: BPM (Beats Per Minute) Model
In audio, a "beat" is a transition point in information units — a new fact, emotional shift, topic change, etc.
| Episode Type | Recommended BPM | Description |
|---|---|---|
| News/Information | 4–5 BPM | New info every 12–15 seconds |
| Interview/Conversation | 2–3 BPM | Perspective shift every 20–30 seconds |
| Storytelling | 1–2 BPM | Scene change every 30–60 seconds |
| Meditation/Reflection | 0.5–1 BPM | Generous use of space and silence |
BPM Shifting Rules
- Opening 30 seconds: High BPM (4–5) — hook fast
- Segment Intro: Medium BPM (2–3) — set context
- Segment Deep Dive: Low BPM (1–2) — in-depth exploration
- Transitions: High BPM (3–4) — reignite energy
- Climax: Variable — intentional silence (0 BPM) followed by burst (5+ BPM)
12 Audio Devices for Boosting Listener Retention
Show full SKILL.md (313 more words)Show less
Narrative Devices
| # | Device | Usage | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Open Loop | "The ending to this story — coming up shortly" | The brain tries to complete unfinished information (Zeigarnik effect) |
| 2 | Cold Open | Start with the most dramatic moment from mid-episode | "What is this?" curiosity trigger |
| 3 | Preview Teaser | "Today we cover X, and Y was particularly shocking" | Removes reasons not to listen |
| 4 | Callback | Reconnect something mentioned earlier to a later point | Narrative satisfaction |
| 5 | Cliffhanger | Leave a segment ending unresolved | Prevents drop-off before the next segment |
Vocal Performance Devices
| # | Device | Usage | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6 | Intentional Silence | 2–3 second pause after a shocking fact | Conveys the weight of the information |
| 7 | Speed Variation | Speak faster during tense parts, slower on key sentences | Rhythm and emphasis |
| 8 | Tone Shift | Explicit signal when shifting light → serious | "Let me get serious for a moment" |
| 9 | Direct Address | "You, listening with your earbuds right now" | Strengthens the 1:1 conversation illusion |
Structural Devices
| # | Device | Usage | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 | Countdown | "The third reason is the most surprising" | Builds anticipation |
| 11 | Summary Anchor | One-sentence summary every 7–8 minutes | Recaptures listeners who drifted |
| 12 | Next Episode Preview | Reveal one key piece of next week's content at closing | Drives series listening |
Sound Design Direction Guide
Notation for sound cues in the script:
> [BGM: Gentle piano — reflective atmosphere]
> [SFX: Typewriter sounds — archival feel]
> [SILENCE: 3 seconds — emotional space]
> [MUSIC TRANSITION: Bright guitar → dark ambient]
> [INSERT: Narration with a news archive clip feel]Recommended BGM Genres by Mood
| Mood | BGM Genre | Suggested Segment |
|---|---|---|
| Energy/Start | Upbeat indie pop, electronic | Opening, transitions |
| Exploration/Discovery | Minimal piano, ambient | Interview deep dives |
| Tension/Suspense | Low drone, dissonance | Mystery, crisis |
| Emotion/Reflection | Strings, acoustic guitar | Climax, closing |
| Humor/Light | Jazz, retro synth | Bridges, casual talk |
Script Density Formula by Duration
| Episode Length | Segment Count | Per-Segment Length | Transitions | CTA Placement |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15 min (short-form) | 2–3 | 4–5 min | 30 sec | After final segment |
| 30 min (standard) | 3–4 | 6–8 min | 30–60 sec | After Segment 2 + closing |
| 60 min (long-form) | 4–6 | 8–12 min | 60 sec | At 20 min/40 min + closing |
| 90 min+ (deep dive) | 5–8 | 10–15 min | 60–90 sec | At 25/50/75 min + closing |
