Requirements
- Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Claude Code 1.0+
- Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Read
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.
- Deep Reading: Deeply read story text, accurately understand characters, character relationships, and event plots in story.
- Information Extraction: Extract main characters, character relationships, and key plots.
- Structure Organization: Organize information according to story development logic, build outline framework.
- Outline Writing: Summarize story into a fluent story outline.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6ced54f. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:
Read
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.
Compatibility
Claude Code 1.0+
From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Context cost
Story Outliner loads about 1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~3.4k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 54 tokens; SKILL.md has 297 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.
