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

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

Requirements: Node.js ≥ 20.0.0

Quick Start

bash
# 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
bash
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
bash
inkos write next 吞天魔帝 # Write next chapter (auto-loads all context)

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)

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)
RuleCondition
Forbidden patterns不是……而是…… constructs
Em-dash ban—— character
Transition word density仿佛/忽然/竟然≤1 per 3000 chars
High-fatigue wordsPer-book list, ≤1 per chapter
Meta-narrativeScreenwriter-style narration
Report terminologyAnalytical framework terms in prose
Author moralizing显然/不言而喻 etc.
Collective reaction「全场震惊」clichés
Consecutive 了≥4 consecutive sentences with 了
Paragraph length≥2 paragraphs over 300 chars
Book-specific bansbook_rules.md forbidden list
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)
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)
typescript
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
typescript
// 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
typescript
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:

markdown
# 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.
