CHAPTER 03

Workspace Areas and Common Entry Points

Learn where writing, context, settings, and workflows live.

The writing page has three main areas:

  • The left column selects volumes and manuscript or reference chapters.
  • The center edits the current chapter and shows its title, word count, tools, and save status.
  • The right column contains the AI assistant, context controls, workflow runs, candidate cards, and confirmation actions.

Use the Outline Workspace for book-to-chapter plans, the Story Bible for structured canon, the Graph Workspace for entities and evidence, and Memory/Information Library for retrievable facts. The Skill Center manages reusable rules; Workflow Studio composes task execution; Version History provides diffs and restore points; Model Settings manages providers and connection checks.

The project page also exposes model setup and guided book setup. You can create references, canon, and prose manually without a model, then use the guided flow for premise, research, worldbuilding, and character candidates after configuring one.

Both writing sidebars can collapse and the prose width can be adjusted. Collapsing a sidebar does not stop an active workflow; reopening it should show the same task and node progress.
