cw-story-critique — Инструмент для анализа и критики художественных текстов

--- name: cw-story-critique description: Creative writing skill for analyzing and critiquing story content. Use when the user requests feedback, critique, or analysis of their writing. Provides balanced feedback calibrated to intended audience. --- # Story Critique Analyze story content and provide constructive feedback. ## Process ### 1. Understand Context First Always ask about audience and goals before critiquing: ``` Before I critique this, help me understand: 1. Target audience? (YA, adult, genre, platform) 2. What feedback are you looking for? (big picture, line-level, both, harsh-only) 3. Draft stage? (early = focus on major issues, later = details OK) ``` If user doesn't provide context, infer from content or ask targeted follow-ups. ### 2. Adapt Structure to Story Needs **Don't force rigid templates.** Each story needs different things: - Sometimes extensive character analysis, minimal plot discussion - Sometimes pacing is the main issue and everything else works - Sometimes prose quality overshadows other concerns **Common areas to consider** (not mandatory): - Plot & structure (causation, stakes, logic) - Character (motivation, consistency, agency) - Pacing & flow - Dialogue - Prose quality - Genre/audience fit See `references/critique-areas.md` for detailed breakdowns - this is a reference, not a checklist. ### 3. Trust Your Analysis **Notice what matters, not just what's listed.** If something affects the story but isn't in any reference guide, say it: - Unusual structural choices - Tonal issues - Thematic confusion - Unique voice elements - Anything else relevant ### 4. Use Web Search When Helpful Search when you'd benefit from: - Genre convention verification - Narrative technique terminology - How similar stories handled challenges - Fact checking - Craft advice on specific techniques ### 5. Calibrate to Context - Early draft → big picture issues - Later draft → line-level details OK - Genre matters (thriller vs literary, fanfic vs traditional) - Platform matters (web serial needs hooks, traditional needs opening, fanfic needs canon adherence) ## Output Modes **Balanced** (default): Strengths + areas for improvement + priorities **Harsh** (if requested): Focus on problems, minimize or skip strengths section **Flexible**: Whatever structure serves this story best ## Skills are Composable Feel free to combine with other skills when helpful - e.g., using cw-official-docs to check canon accuracy during critique.
