danjdewhurst/story-skillsSkill
This skill should be used when the user asks about "pantsing", "discovery write", "write without an outline", "discovery draft", "write into the dark", "story kernel", "reconcile a chapter", "dead end", "drafting sprint", "writing cadence", or wants to draft a story by discovery with retrospective bible reconciliation. NOT for outline-first drafting, or mysteries and other clue-dependent genres where setup must come before payoff (use chapter-writing), or a reverse outline of an existing linear draft, a subplot cut, or another revision pass on existing chapters (use revision-continuity).
Why this score
This repo hosts 10 skills, so its 332 stars are split between them (about 33 each) for scoring.
Popularity score: 64/100 from public GitHub signals only. It shows how widely used and maintained this is, not how well it works. Not included yet: the fake-star check. The security scan is shown separately and doesn't change the score. How we rank
Security
Scanned Oct 20, 2026 at commit 4b8019d7fa08, with Cisco's open-source skill-scanner.
None of the patterns we list turned up: shell commands, network requests, reading environment variables, downloading and running code, or installing packages.
A scan lists patterns in the code. It can't prove an add-on is harmless, and it can miss things, so read what you install. How we scan
