Section progression, Matrix, and editor skills

See how a character has changed — section progression

Characters change as the story moves on. Now those changes build up in chapter order in the Progression under a World node's section, and pressing the manuscript page or board card number on a line takes you straight to that scene.

You don't have to write them yourself: as Organize World reads your chapters, it notes what a character becomes, gains, loses, or learns. If plot has crept into a character's write-up, say “move it into the progression” and the agent does.

A board as a grid — Matrix

Questions like “when did this side character last show up?” are hard to answer by opening cards one by one. Boards now have a Matrix view: cards as rows, characters or places as columns, and a dot marking who or what appears in each card. Press an empty cell to add that value to the card.

The board screen has a new layout too. Groups wrap to the next row, card numbers read like the manuscript's (Event 1.2), and cards you open often can be pinned to the sidebar.

Keep old values alongside new ones — property start and end

When a character's job changes, the old value no longer has to go. Give each value the manuscript page or board card where it starts and ends, and past and present values stay together in one field. Say it in chat — “he quit hunting after ‘The Seal Cracks’” — and it's written there.

Requests you make often, right on the page — editor skills

Skills now come in an Editor type. Make one and it sits in the cursor menu; press it and the passage, with the sentences around it, goes to the chat for the agent to answer. You can also make a new one on the spot with the ＋ in the cursor menu.

Your manuscript in one scroll — continuous view

Turn on Continuous view under the editor and your manuscript's pages join in reading order. Scroll straight down like a book instead of going back to the sidebar for each chapter, and fix whatever catches your eye right there.

Chat with Claude on every plan

Claude joins the models in the agent settings, so you can choose GPT, Gemini, or Claude on any plan. The model you pick is also the first choice for drafts, Revision, and proofreading. Detailed models on the Max plan now offer five reasoning levels.

Only the ideas you like go into the World — picking under a reply

When the agent offers a few options for a character or a place, a checkbox for each idea appears under the reply. Tick the ones you like and send them to the backlog with Add to backlog, or file them right away with Organize all. Say “add that to the World” and it's written from that same reply.

Ask about part of a reply. Select text in an agent reply and Ask quotes that passage.
One more round of polishing. Generate another under a Rephrase or Enhance card brings new options.
