What it does

Developmental Editing is an agent skill from revfactory/harness-100. 편집자(manuscript-editor)가 사용하는 발전적 편집 전문 스킬. 원고 구조 분석, 서사 아크 진단, 캐릭터 아크 설계, 페이싱 조절, 장르별 편집 기준을 제공한다. '원고 편집', '구조 편집', '서사 분석', '원고 피드백' 등에 활용한다.

Its SKILL.md is about 790 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The licence is Apache-2.0.

Example prompts

  • “/developmental-editing”

Workflow steps

12 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. 이 책이 존재해야 하는 이유는 무엇인가?
  2. 독자는 이 책을 읽고 무엇이 달라지는가?
  3. 첫 페이지가 독자를 붙잡는가?
  4. 각 장이 전체에 기여하는가? 빼도 되는 장은 없는가?
  5. 가장 약한 장은 어디인가?
  6. 독자가 이탈할 지점은 어디인가?
  7. 핵심 메시지가 반복 강화되고 있는가?
  8. 사례/스토리가 충분한가?
  9. 독자 수준에 맞는 어휘인가?
  10. 결말이 만족스러운가?
  11. (소설) 주인공이 변화하는가?
  12. (소설) 갈등이 매 장에 존재하는가?

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

Developmental Editing loads about 791 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 41 tokens; SKILL.md has 455 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~41
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~791

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
편집자(manuscript-editor)가 사용하는 발전적 편집 전문 스킬. 원고 구조 분석, 서사 아크 진단, 캐릭터 아크 설계, 페이싱 조절, 장르별 편집 기준을 제공한다. '원고 편집', '구조 편집', '서사 분석', '원고 피드백' 등에 활용한다.

Developmental Editing — 발전적 편집 방법론

manuscript-editor 에이전트가 원고를 구조적으로 편집할 때 활용하는 편집 전문 지식.

왜 발전적 편집인가

교정교열(맞춤법/문법)은 편집의 10%에 불과하다. 발전적 편집은 원고의 구조, 서사, 캐릭터, 페이싱을 진단하고 개선하는 것으로, 책의 완성도를 결정하는 핵심 작업이다.

원고 구조 진단: SPINE 체크

요소점검 항목진단 질문

What does Developmental Editing need to run?

SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Developmental Editing is instructions for the agent only.

Does Developmental Editing access the network?

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.

Is Developmental Editing safe to install?

What licence does Developmental Editing use?

Developmental Editing is published under the Apache-2.0 licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.

How many tokens does Developmental Editing use?

About 791 tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 3.2k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full.
