InkOS Multi-Agent Novel Writing

Skill by ara.so — Daily 2026 Skills collection

InkOS is a multi-agent CLI system that autonomously writes, audits, and revises novels. Agents handle the full pipeline: Writer → Validator → Auditor → Reviser, with human review gates at configurable checkpoints.

Installation

npm install -g @actalk/inkos
# or run directly
npx @actalk/inkos --version

Requirements: Node.js ≥ 20.0.0

Quick Start

# Create a new novel project
inkos book create --title "吞天魔帝" --genre xuanhuan

# Write the next chapter
inkos write next 吞天魔帝

# Audit a specific chapter
inkos audit 吞天魔帝 --chapter 3

# Run the full daemon (continuous production)
inkos daemon start

Project Structure

After inkos book create, the project directory contains:

story/
  outline.md              # Story outline (architect agent input)
  book_rules.md           # Per-book custom rules and audit dimensions
  chapter_summaries.md    # Auto-generated per-chapter summaries
  subplot_board.md        # Subplot progress tracking (A/B/C lines)
  emotional_arcs.md       # Per-character emotional arc tracking
  character_matrix.md     # Character interaction matrix + info boundaries
  parent_canon.md         # Spinoff only: imported canon constraints
  style_profile.json      # Style fingerprint (if style import used)
  style_guide.md          # LLM-generated qualitative style guide
  chapters/
    ch001.md
    ch002.md
    ...

Core Commands

Book Management

inkos book create --title "Title" --genre xuanhuan  # genres: xuanhuan | xianxia | dushi | horror | general
inkos book list
inkos book status 吞天魔帝

Writing Pipeline

inkos write next 吞天魔帝           # Write next chapter (auto-loads all context)
inkos write chapter 吞天魔帝 5      # Write specific chapter
inkos audit 吞天魔帝 --chapter 3    # Audit chapter (33 dimensions)
inkos revise 吞天魔帝 --chapter 3   # Revise based on audit results
inkos revise 吞天魔帝 --chapter 3 --mode spot-fix   # Point fix only (default)
inkos revise 吞天魔帝 --chapter 3 --mode rewrite    # Full rewrite (use cautiously)
inkos revise 吞天魔帝 --chapter 3 --mode polish     # Polish (no structural changes)

Genre System

inkos genre list                        # List all built-in genres
inkos genre show xuanhuan               # View full rules for a genre
inkos genre copy xuanhuan               # Copy genre rules to project for customization
inkos genre create wuxia --name 武侠     # Create new genre from scratch

Style Matching

inkos style analyze reference.txt               # Analyze style fingerprint
inkos style import reference.txt 吞天魔帝        # Import style into book
inkos style import reference.txt 吞天魔帝 --name "某作者"

Spinoff (Prequel/Sequel/IF-branch)

inkos book create --title "烈焰前传" --genre xuanhuan
inkos import canon 烈焰前传 --from 吞天魔帝       # Import parent canon constraints
inkos write next 烈焰前传                         # Writer auto-reads canon constraints

AIGC Detection

inkos detect 吞天魔帝 --chapter 3     # Detect AIGC markers in chapter
inkos detect 吞天魔帝 --all           # Detect all chapters
inkos detect --stats                  # View detection history statistics

Daemon (Continuous Production)

inkos daemon start                    # Start scheduler (default: 15 min/cycle)
inkos daemon stop
inkos daemon status

Agent Architecture

InkOS runs five specialized agents in sequence:

ArchitectAgent  →  outline.md, book_rules.md
     ↓
WriterAgent     →  ch00N.md (reads: outline, summaries, arcs, matrix, style_guide, canon)
     ↓
ValidatorAgent  →  11 deterministic rules, zero LLM cost
     ↓  (error found → trigger spot-fix immediately)
AuditorAgent    →  33 LLM dimensions, temperature=0 for consistency
     ↓
ReviserAgent    →  spot-fix | rewrite | polish | anti-detect

Post-Write Validator Rules (Deterministic, No LLM)

Audit Dimensions (33 total, LLM-evaluated)

Key dimensions include:

• Dims 1–23: Core narrative quality (plot, character, pacing, foreshadowing)
• Dim 24–26: Subplot stagnation, arc flatness, rhythm monotony (all 5 genres)
• Dim 27: Sensitive content
• Dim 28–31: Spinoff-specific (canon conflicts, future info leakage, world rule consistency, foreshadowing isolation)
• Dim 32: Reader expectation management
• Dim 33: Outline deviation detection

Code Integration Examples

Programmatic Usage (TypeScript)

import { BookManager } from '@actalk/inkos'
import { WriterAgent } from '@actalk/inkos/agents'
import { ValidatorAgent } from '@actalk/inkos/agents'

// Create and configure a book
const manager = new BookManager()
const book = await manager.createBook({
  title: '吞天魔帝',
  genre: 'xuanhuan',
  outlinePath: './my-outline.md'
})

// Run the write pipeline for next chapter
const writer = new WriterAgent({ temperature: 0.8 })
const chapter = await writer.writeNext(book)

// Run deterministic validation (no LLM cost)
const validator = new ValidatorAgent()
const validationResult = await validator.validate(chapter, book)

if (validationResult.hasErrors) {
  // Auto spot-fix triggered
  const reviser = new ReviserAgent({ mode: 'spot-fix' })
  const fixed = await reviser.revise(chapter, validationResult.errors, book)
  console.log('Fixed violations:', validationResult.errors.length)
}

Webhook Handler (Express)

import express from 'express'
import crypto from 'crypto'

const app = express()
app.use(express.raw({ type: 'application/json' }))

app.post('/hooks/inkos', (req, res) => {
  const sig = req.headers['x-inkos-signature'] as string
  const expected = crypto
    .createHmac('sha256', process.env.INKOS_WEBHOOK_SECRET!)
    .update(req.body)
    .digest('hex')

  if (sig !== `sha256=${expected}`) {
    return res.status(401).send('Invalid signature')
  }

  const event = JSON.parse(req.body.toString())

  switch (event.type) {
    case 'chapter-complete':
      console.log(`Chapter ${event.chapter} of "${event.book}" complete`)
      // Trigger human review gate
      notifyReviewer(event)
      break
    case 'audit-failed':
      console.log(`Audit failed: ${event.criticalCount} critical issues`)
      break
    case 'pipeline-error':
      console.error(`Pipeline error in "${event.book}":`, event.error)
      break
  }

  res.status(200).json({ received: true })
})

Custom Genre Definition

// genres/wuxia.ts
import type { GenreConfig } from '@actalk/inkos/types'

export const wuxia: GenreConfig = {
  id: 'wuxia',
  name: '武侠',
  chapterTypes: ['江湖相遇', '武功切磋', '恩怨纠葛', '门派争斗', '武林大会'],
  forbiddenPatterns: [
    '内力值', '战力', '等级提升',   // No numerical power system
    '系统', '面板', '属性点'
  ],
  fatiguedWords: ['震惊', '无敌', '碾压', '秒杀'],
  languageRules: [
    {
      bad: '内力增加了100点',
      good: '一股暖流沿经脉漫开，指尖的颤抖渐渐平息'
    }
  ],
  auditDimensions: [
    '武功描写感官化',
    '江湖规则内部一致性',
    '恩怨情仇弧线完整性'
  ]
}

Style Import Pipeline

import { StyleAnalyzer } from '@actalk/inkos/style'

const analyzer = new StyleAnalyzer()

// Analyze reference text
const profile = await analyzer.analyze('./reference-novel.txt')
console.log(profile)
// {
//   avgSentenceLength: 18.3,
//   ttr: 0.42,           // Type-Token Ratio
//   rhetoricalDensity: 0.15,
//   paragraphLengthDist: { p25: 45, p50: 89, p75: 156 },
//   punctuationStyle: 'sparse'
// }

// Import into book (generates style_profile.json + style_guide.md)
await analyzer.importToBook('./reference-novel.txt', '吞天魔帝', {
  authorName: '某作者'
})

Audit Revision Loop

The v0.4 hardened audit-revision loop prevents revision from introducing more AI markers:

AuditorAgent (temp=0)
     ↓ critical issues found
ReviserAgent spot-fix
     ↓
AI marker count comparison
     ↓ markers increased?
  YES → discard revision, keep original
  NO  → accept revision
     ↓
Re-audit (temp=0)

Key settings for audit consistency:

• Auditor always runs at temperature: 0 — eliminates 0–6 critical variance on same chapter
• Default revision mode is spot-fix (only modify problem sentences)
• rewrite mode is available but measured to introduce 6× more AI markers
• polish mode is boundary-locked: no paragraph add/delete, no name changes, no new plot

Spinoff Canon Constraints

When parent_canon.md is detected, 4 additional audit dimensions activate automatically:

# parent_canon.md (auto-generated by `inkos import canon`)

## 正传世界规则
- 力量体系: 炼体→炼气→炼丹→炼神→炼虚
- 地理: 九州大陆，东海以东无人居住
- 阵营: 正道五宗 vs 魔道三门

## 关键事件时间线
- 第1章: 主角获得吞天诀
- 第45章: 正道五宗盟约成立 [分歧点]

## 角色快照 (分歧点时状态)
- 林天: 炼气期第三层，未知父母身世
- 剑宗宗主: 在世，尚未叛变

## 伏笔状态 (正传专属，番外禁止回收)
- 古剑残片: 未解
- 神秘老人身份: 未解

Troubleshooting

Validator fires on every chapter Check book_rules.md fatigue word list — words listed there are enforced ≤1 per chapter. Remove infrequently used terms.

Audit results wildly inconsistent between runs Confirm auditor temperature is locked to 0 in config. If using a proxy LLM API, ensure it respects temperature: 0.

Revision introduces more AI markers than original This is expected behavior — InkOS v0.4 automatically detects this and discards the revision. If it happens repeatedly, switch from rewrite to spot-fix mode explicitly.

Spinoff audit incorrectly flags events Verify parent_canon.md has accurate divergence point timestamps. Events before the divergence point are canon-locked; events after are fair game for the spinoff.

Daemon stops a book after repeated failures Check daemon status for the suspended book. After fixing the underlying issue (usually outline ambiguity or book_rules.md contradiction), run inkos daemon resume 书名.

Style guide not being applied by writer Run inkos style import again — if style_guide.md is missing or empty, the writer skips style injection silently. Check that the reference text is ≥5000 characters for reliable fingerprinting.
