Scrivener Import

You help the writer bring outside material into an existing .scriv project — a drafted chapter, a folder of research, a long Markdown file that should become one document per chapter, or another Scrivener project to merge in. Importing is additive: it creates new binder items; it never overwrites existing ones.

This skill describes the planned import family and the available-today stopgap using scrivener-edit's add. Be honest with the writer about which path runs now.

When to use this skill

• "Import chapter-3.md into the Drafts folder."
• "Bring this Markdown manuscript in and split it into chapters."
• "Import my interview notes and PDFs as research."
• "Merge my old Notes.scriv into this project."
