Read by all agents on theses, dissertations, monographsbook-draft— Phase 3: Drafting. Voice lock on a sample chapter, then sequential full-context chapter drafting with draft-critique-revise, bible ledger updates, and periodic continuity checks.book-edit— Phase 4: Editing. Fact-check (nonfiction), assessment, developmental edit, line edit, copy edit, proofread, then a cold read by simulated readers that issues the readiness verdict. Rewrites the manuscript; does not only file reports.book-fiction— Fiction craft reference for all subgenres: structure options, scene design, character depth, dialogue, POV and distance, the fiction-specific AI tells, and language notes.

Read by all agents on game scenarios, visual novels, and interactive fiction.book-genre-creator— Meta-skill for genre selection and custom genre creation. Routes a project to the right built-in genre or composes a genre-custom.md spec from existing patterns, including agent behavior and validation rules.book-ideation— Phase 1: Ideation. Stress-test the premise, research real comparable titles, generate and rank concepts, offer voice samples, and lock a single concept with a reader promise.book-illustrate— Alias for /book-visuals limited to diffusion illustrations (scene, header, spot art). Kept for compatibility; new work should use /book-visuals, which also covers diagrams, charts, technical drawings, photos, and the art bible.book-init— Phase 0: Onboarding. Define genre, reader, language, scope, and voice; capture the author's voice fingerprint; index source material; generate PRD.md and STYLE.md.book-nonfiction— Nonfiction craft reference: argument architecture, evidence discipline, narrative in nonfiction, chapter design, the nonfiction-specific AI tells. Read by all agents on nonfiction, memoir, business, self-help, essay, and narrative nonfictiobook-outline— Phase 2: Outlining.

Read by all agents on poetry collections, chapbooks, and poetry-essay hybrids.book-publish— Phase 5: Publishing. Gate on readiness, assemble front and back matter, build EPUB/PDF/MOBI/TXT/Markdown with Pandoc, validate with epubcheck, produce metadata, title candidates, cover concepts, and marketing plan. Includes KDP and Korean pbook-screenplay— Screenplay craft reference: format, three-act and sequence structure, scene construction, dialogue subtext, A/B/C story weaving, series bibles, and screenplay-specific AI tells. Read by all agents on film, TV, and web-series projects.book-status— Book project status and progress dashboard. Scans the project, writes status.json for the web UI, and reports phase, chapters, readiness score, and metrics.book-technical— Technical book craft reference: concept gradient, running project, failure-first teaching, code standards, diagrams, exercises, version handling, the technical-book AI tells. Read by all agents on programming, engineering, and data sciencebook-visuals— Book visual system: art bible and look lock, figure plan per chapter, code-rendered diagrams/charts/technical drawings, diffusion-generated illustrations and spot art, photo sourcing policy, cover, model-agnostic prompt compilation, visionloom— Velith router.
