Story Maintenance

Overview

Run deterministic maintenance for Story Skills projects. Use the CLI for structure validation, registry rebuilds, word counts, link checks, continuity checks, project reports, next-action reports, schema migration, entity helpers, manuscript import, and manuscript export. The creative skills still own story decisions; this skill handles mechanical consistency.

CLI Access

Prefer the first available command:

1. story <command> - when the package bin is installed
2. bun run story -- <command> - when working from this repository
3. node scripts/story.js <command> - bundled fallback, resolving scripts/story.js relative to this skill folder

If none of these are available, perform the requested maintenance manually using the conventions in story-init.

Run the installed or bundled CLI in place. Do not copy scripts/story.js into the user's story project, and do not create project-local build scripts, generator scripts, or bulk writer scripts to generate story content. Story projects should remain markdown-first, plus explicitly requested exports such as manuscript.md.
