Pillar two of five

Remember the Book.

Most AI tools have conversations. Inkloom gives your book a memory. As you approve chapters, Inkloom extracts structured facts, tracks characters and promises, and warns you when a later chapter contradicts what came before. The book remembers what it established, so you do not have to hold it all in your head.

How the book maintains memory

Memory is data, not vibes.

A 300-page book contains hundreds of facts, dozens of characters, and numerous promises. No human can hold all of that in working memory while drafting. Inkloom structures it so contradictions surface as cards instead of slipping through to readers.

Canon

The set of facts and decisions your book has established as canonical. Once something is in the canon, later generation must respect it or explicitly supersede it.

Continuity

Conflict detection across the whole manuscript. Two passes run after each approved chapter: deterministic (numeric or polarity disagreement) and semantic (LLM comparison of proposed facts against canonical ones).

Facts

Structured records extracted from approved chapters, each with a confidence score and a source passage. Facts move through statuses: proposed, canonical, superseded, conflicting.

Open Loops

Threads your book opened but has not yet closed. A promise in chapter 3 that nothing in chapter 17 pays off becomes an open loop card that stays visible until you resolve it.

Characters

For fiction: who exists, what they want, what they know, how they relate to each other, and how all of that changes chapter by chapter. Knowledge states prevent characters from revealing secrets they should not have.

World Rules

The laws of your fictional world, stated once and enforced forever. If magic costs something in chapter 1, Inkloom flags a chapter 14 scene where it costs nothing.

Promises

What your book promised the reader, in the concept, the Blueprint, and the early chapters. The review pass checks whether every promise is fulfilled by the end.

Key Terms

Defined terms and the chapter where each was introduced. A term used in chapter 9 that was never defined becomes a card, so no concept is used before its introduction.

Sources

For nonfiction: research uploads classified by type, linked to the claims they support. You always know which claims still need evidence.

Claims

For nonfiction: every assertion with a support level (unsupported, partially supported, or supported) and the citations behind it. The readiness check reports unsupported claims before you publish.

Context Trace

Every AI-made version carries a record of what the model knew when it was created: the model, the prompt template version, the timestamp, and every context item included or retrieved.

The Continuity Hub

Contradictions become cards, not surprises.

After you approve a chapter, Inkloom extracts structured facts with confidence scores and source passages. Conflicts become cards showing both statements and where each came from. You pick the canonical version or mark the difference as intentional. Nothing is ever silently resolved.

  • Facts carry statuses: proposed, canonical, superseded, conflicting
  • Conflict detection runs two passes: deterministic and semantic
  • You resolve each conflict by choosing the canonical version
  • Open loops, key terms, promises, characters, and world rules tracked in one hub
Tools in this pillar

Every tool that remembers the book.

These tools extract, track, and enforce what your manuscript has established. Together they form the book's living memory.

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.

Canon

Canon is the set of facts your book has established as true. Proposed facts become canonical when you approve them. Canonical facts are binding on future generation. Superseded facts are preserved for history.

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.

Claim Validation

Claims are tracked with support levels: unsupported, partially supported, supported. The Validate Claim action on selected text creates a claim record and suggests what evidence would support it, without fabricating sources.

Character Tracking

For fiction, Inkloom tracks characters, motivations, knowledge states, relationships, world rules, timeline events, reveals, motifs, and point of view. Each character can have up to 8 reference images for visual consistency across generated covers and illustrations. Character rename propagates across the entire project.

Open Loops

Track open loops, questions, and unresolved threads across the manuscript. Know what you set up and what you still need to pay off. The system reminds you before a loop is forgotten.

World Building

For fiction, Inkloom tracks world rules with domain categories (magic, physics, society, product, process), source provenance, locations, timeline events, and motifs. Before drafting, it knows the rules your world follows, so a chapter does not break them without you knowing.

Source Management

Sources are linked to claims via citations. Upload research, classify it yourself, and link it to the claims it supports. The Sources tab in each chapter shows your research library and the claims in that chapter with their support status.
