About
novel-init-wizard
Purpose
Create a new novel project by walking the user through a staged planning interview instead of asking for one flat premise.
Reference: docs/local-codex-studio.md
Workflow
- Start a wizard session with
POST /api/wizard/start. - Ask one question at a time.
- Prefer short options first; allow custom input when the user's answer does not fit.
- Continue through the full session until the wizard returns a preview.
- Show the preview summary:
- title
- genre
- premise
- key roles
- volume one direction
- chapter one brief
- Only after confirmation, call
POST /api/wizard/finish.
Guardrails
- Do not skip ahead and invent unanswered fields.
- Do not collapse the whole interview into one giant prompt.
- The wizard creates project seed, canon seed, volume outline, and chapter one brief; it does not directly draft chapter one.
