Start with these
A few from each category. Open a category for all of them.
Fiction
All 20- Check story continuity
Finds continuity errors across chapters (names, timelines, physical details, objects, who knows what, world rules) and lists them by location with quotes. Use before beta readers or submission.
- Critique a fiction draft
Gives developmental feedback on a fiction draft covering point of view, pacing, stakes, character and dialogue, prioritised and without rewriting the author's prose. Use between drafts.
- Design a plot twist
Designs plot twists that feel surprising yet inevitable, naming the reader's false assumption, the reveal, which clues to plant where and how to hide them. Use for novels and screenplays.
- Develop a character
Develops a fictional character with a want, a need, a flaw, a backstory that matters, a distinct voice and an arc that serves the story. Use when a character feels flat or generic.
Poetry
All 7- Analyse a poem
Analyses a poem's meaning, form, imagery, sound and context, and offers more than one reading, each supported by evidence from the lines. Use when studying, teaching or reading a poem closely.
- Critique a poem
Gives close-reading feedback on a poem covering imagery, line breaks, sound and compression, then poses questions for revision instead of rewriting it. Use on a draft you want to push further.
- Generate poetry prompts
Generates a sequenced set of poetry writing prompts and exercises (constraint, image, form, memory) with steps and timing, for a workshop session or a daily writing practice.
- Poetry mentor
Poetry mentor who reads closely, asks what the poem wants, teaches craft through examples and encourages risk over polish. Use as a long-running companion for developing a poetry practice.
Screenwriting
All 9- Adapt a story for the screen
Plans a screen adaptation of a story, book or real event, deciding what to keep, cut and externalise, the new structure and a sample scene, with a rights check. Use before adapting source material.
- Develop a TV series concept
Develops a TV series concept into pitch-ready material with logline, series engine, characters, season-one arc, episode ideas and tone references. Use before writing a pilot or a pitch deck.
- Format a screenplay scene
Writes or converts a scene into correct film, TV or stage script format with sluglines, action and dialogue, flagging anything unfilmable. Use to turn prose or notes into a script page.
- Script consultant
Script consultant who reads for story, character and structure as a producer would and gives prioritised, actionable notes. Use with screenwriters and playwrights at any draft stage.
Music
All 13- Analyse a song's structure
Analyses a song's sections, hook placement, chord movement, rhyme scheme, prosody and dynamics to show why it works, with lessons and exercises for your own writing. Use to study songs.
- Music producer
Music producer who serves the song, makes clear arrangement and production calls, gives specific mix and performance feedback, and keeps the session moving toward a finished track.
- Plan instrument practice
Builds an instrument practice plan for a level and goal, with warm-ups, technique, repertoire, ear training, timing work and progress checks sized to your daily time. Use to practise with purpose.
- Plan a live set
Plans a live set or gig from your songs and the slot, with setlist order, energy curve, transitions, banter cues, a timing budget and a backup plan for running long, short or into trouble.
Image generation
All 7- Build a style kit for a series of generated images
Builds a reusable style kit (style statement, style tokens, prompt template, negative prompts, character sheets, consistency techniques, QA checklist) to keep generated image series consistent.
- Create a storyboard with image prompts
Creates a shot-by-shot storyboard with shot size, angle, movement, action, sound and timing, plus a consistent image prompt for every frame. Use when planning a video, animation or comic.
- Write character consistency prompts
Builds a character sheet and prompt kit that keeps one character recognisable across image generations, with locked traits, outfits, poses, expressions, a reference strategy and a drift checklist.
- Write an image-edit prompt
Writes precise AI image-edit instructions for inpainting, background changes, style transfer or object removal that state what must not change, with mask guidance and checks. Use before an edit.
Worldbuilding
All 7- Build a magic system
Builds a magic or technology system with a source, rules, costs and limits, stress-tests it for exploits, and lists the story conflicts it creates. Use for fiction or tabletop settings.
- Build a series bible
Compiles a series bible from drafts or notes (characters, places, world rules, timeline, terminology, open threads), citing sources and flagging every contradiction. Use for novel series and TV.
- Build a world timeline
Builds a fictional world's history as eras and pivotal events with causes, lasting consequences and contested memories that feed the present-day story's conflict. Use for novels, games and campaigns.
- Create a fictional language
Sketches a fictional language that fits its culture, with sounds, romanisation, word shapes, core grammar, a starter lexicon and glossed sample phrases, at the depth your story or game needs.
