Brainstorm: Ten Directions, Grounded in Your Book
When you are stuck, highlight a passage and get ten directions it could take, each grounded in the records the passage touches: facts, open loops, characters, promises, terms. One click drafts a direction into a reviewable diff.
Why this is hard
Long manuscripts have problems that short documents do not.
Writer's block. You stare at a passage and cannot see where it goes next.
Generic brainstorming produces generic ideas. A useful direction needs to be grounded in what your book has already established and what it still needs to resolve.
You highlight a passage (15+ words) and get ten directions it could take, each grounded in the records the passage touches: facts, open loops, characters, promises, key terms. Each direction is phrased in your voice. One click drafts a direction into the usual reviewable diff.
You pick a direction or none. Drafting a direction creates a reviewable diff, not a replacement.
What other Inkloom features interact with it
Chapter Editor
A real rich-text manuscript editor with precise search, syntax-highlighted code blocks, a command palette, local recovery, typewriter mode, private notes, full-manuscript search, autosave, full version history, focus mode, familiar keyboard shortcuts, and reviewable AI actions. Your text is never overwritten.
Continuity
Facts are extracted from your chapters into structured records with fact types, entity labels, confidence percentages, and source passages. Proposed facts promote to canonical with one click. Conflicts become cards. Nothing is ever silently resolved.
Context Trace
Every AI-made version in a chapter's History carries a Trace button. One click shows exactly what Inkloom knew when it created that version: the model, the prompt template and its version, the timestamp, and every context item with whether it was always included or retrieved by relevance.
Continuity
