What does this agent skill do?

Story Review

Analytical review of existing prose. This skill is for diagnosis, not rewriting. Keep /reader-sim separate when the task needs a felt first-time reader experience rather than analytical critique.

Choose the review level before reading. Start big before small unless the caller explicitly asks for a late-stage pass. The edit levels move from structural to surface, and each assumes the levels above it are stable:

  • Editorial review — holistic third-party book-editor pass. What kind of revision does this draft need, and in what order?
  • Developmental edit — structure, promise, causality, pacing, character arc. Is the draft the right shape?
  • Line edit — voice, rhythm, clarity, texture. Does the prose move well?
  • Copyedit — grammar, usage, punctuation, consistency. Is it correct?
  • Proofreading — final surface pass. What slipped through?

Each level has a dedicated resource with method and checklist:

  • resources/editorial-review.md
  • resources/developmental-edit.md
  • resources/line-edit.md
  • resources/copyedit.md
  • resources/proofreading.md

For adversarial craft critique (as opposed to editorial review), load:

  • resources/prose-critique.md — methodology and focus-area routing.
  • resources/prose-critique/ — deep resources per focus area (structure, character, voice, prose, continuity).

When review incorporates reader-sim data:

  • resources/reader-sim-signal.md — how to interpret and synthesize reader-sim output alongside analytical critique.

Add the canonical catalog link to the repository README so users can inspect current installs and available audits. The publishing guide covers the complete discovery path.
