Snowflake Novel Master Skill

Universal core skill for standardized long-form web novel production using the

reverse snowflake method. Rigid framework locks structure; flexible style locks

texture. One skill serves all novels — switch projects by switching directories.

Project Directory Structure

Every novel project MUST use this structure for automatic isolation:

Novel_Project/
01_全书总纲/
  世界观设定.md
  核心人设库.md
  主线终极目标.md
  全书爽点体系.md
  禁忌剧情&避雷清单.md
02_雪花五层大纲/
  第一层_全书大主线.md
  第二层_分卷阶段剧情.md
  第三层_阶段剧情板块.md
  第四层_剧情单元细纲.md
  第五层_单场剧情细节&拐点钩子.md
03_单元初稿库（未分章原始正文）/
  主线单元初稿/
  支线单元初稿/
  暗线单元初稿/
04_正式章节文稿（已拆分+打磨完毕）/
  第1-100章/
  第101-200章/
  ...
05_伏笔&坑位记录表.md
06_项目专属脑洞素材.md
07_节奏复盘记录.md

Rule: All outputs auto-map to this structure. Skill has NO file write

permission — prompt user to save content to the correct path.

Three-Stage Interruptible Workflow

Stage 1: Macro Planning          Stage 2: Micro Creation         Stage 3: Post-Processing
├─ Layer 1: Skeleton             ├─ Layer 3: Unit blocks          ├─ Batch chapter split
├─ Layer 2: Volume arcs          ├─ Layer 4: Unit outlines        ├─ Hook polishing
   ↓ [confirm lock]              ├─ Layer 5: First draft          ├─ Full-text polish
                                   ↓ [unit complete]              ├─ Archive & review

Stage 1: Macro Planning (RIGID — NO prose output)

• Build Layer 1 (skeleton) → output preview + constraint checklist → STOP wait confirm
• Build Layer 2 (volumes) → output pacing plan + conflict list → STOP wait confirm
• Ban: Absolutely NO novel prose, unit drafts, or scene content in this stage
• Interruptible: Pause, backtrack, or supplement settings anytime

Stage 2: Micro Creation (Unit-by-unit, with auto jam detection)

• Layer 3: Split into plot units (main/branch/dark line)
• Layer 4: Outline each unit with hook slots marked
• Layer 5A: Write continuous unit draft — NO chapter constraints, focus on story logic
• Layer 5B: Split into chapters at plot turns + 1500-2500 word intervals, polish hooks
• Foreshadowing rule: On unit completion, output structured foreshadowing list in chat and prompt user to sync to 05_伏笔&坑位记录表.md
• Interruptible: Pause, switch lines, backtrack, supplement details anytime

Stage 3: Post-Processing (Batch operations)

• Batch chapter split, hook refinement, compliance polish, directory archive
• Polishing rigid boundary: Optimize sentence fluency and pacing ONLY. NEVER modify plot nodes, character decisions, conflict direction, foreshadowing length, or character arcs.

Six-Prefix Intent Routing (MANDATORY)

All creative commands map to ONE of six prefixes. Compound intents: execute highest

priority immediately, queue others, then ask "是否继续处理遗留的XX需求？"

Priority order: [卡壳求助] > [搭建] > [推进] > [润色] > [项目管理] > [灵感归档]

For full routing rules, jam detection, and handoff protocols: See

references/routing-system.md.

Snowflake Five-Layer Method (Overview)

Rule: Rigid framework locks structure. Never skip layers.

Layer 1 — Skeleton: Ultimate goal, max conflict, ending, core pleasure

mechanism. Character MUST have: core desire + fatal flaw + moral bottom-line

event. Story tone MUST have: narrative intimacy level + emotion spectrum ratios.

Layer 2 — Volume Arcs: Stage goals, core conflicts, stage-ending twists

(that double as next-stage fuses).

Layer 3 — Plot Units (core planning unit): One unit = one complete mini-event

(cause → development → conflict → twist → mini-resolution). **Mini-resolution

hard constraint**: Close current event emotionally AND plant fuse for next event.

For large units (>8000 words), use parent-child split — see

references/snowflake-method.md for full elastic split rules.

Layer 4 — Unit Outlines: Map event structure to: core purpose, emotion peaks,

pleasure points, key turning points, chapter split points, hook blank slots.

Layer 5 — First Draft (A/B two-step):

• 5A: Write continuous unit prose, NO chapter constraints. At hook blank slots,

write natural suspense — don't polish to exact hook copy yet.

• 5B: After unit draft complete, revisit blank slots, polish to Fanqie-standard

hooks. Split chapters at plot turns + 1500-2500 word intervals.

For full snowflake rules, parent-child unit split examples, and mini-resolution

templates: See references/snowflake-method.md.

Jam Detection & Handoff Protocol

Small Jam (local self-closed)

Surface-level prose, dialogue, detail polish. Plot framework intact. Handle

within current skill.

Big Jam (mandatory handoff) — triggered by ANY of:

1. User explicitly asks for help (写不下去/求助/不会写/接不上/圆不上)
2. Same unit/outline revised >3 times still not finalized
3. Multi-line chaos, unresolvable branch conflict, or dark-line gap causing halt

Auto-package on trigger (no user manual assembly):

• Current project info, snowflake layer, stuck unit position
• Completed content, revision history (last 3)
• Core deadlock description
• Constraint checklist (character/main-line/taboo)
• Standardized demand: N≥2 executable plans, each with 4-part structure:

① Plan ID ② Plot summary (≤200 chars) ③ Compatibility check

④ Next-unit bridge suggestion

For full handoff form and child skill return format requirements:

See references/collaboration-protocol.md.

Cross-Skill Collaboration

This skill is the MASTER skill. It coordinates with two child skills:

• Plot-Derivation Skill: Receives handoff packages, returns structured plans
• Style-Simulation Skill: Oral-style preference only (NO original text upload).

Returns style-tuned prose guidance.

For standardized handoff forms and child-skill return format enforcement:

See references/collaboration-protocol.md.

Proactive Monitoring & Suggestions

During creation, actively monitor and prompt:

• Excessive setup / pacing drag / missing pleasure points
• Long-unrecovered foreshadowing / pit accumulation
• Unit nearing completion → suggest chapter split points

Copyright Compliance

Multi-Project Switching

• Switch novel = switch local project folder
