What it does
The set drives production of a short AI drama from a novel through five skills linked as a pipeline. novel-outline turns a novel into an adaptation plan: adaptation notes, a character table, a payoff table, per-episode synopses and an asset list. novel-characters builds a character set: portraits, image and voice prompts, reference sheets. novel-art assembles an art set of scenes and narrative props with consistency anchors and lighting variants. novel-script writes a scene-based screenplay with alternating action and dialogue, and lines grouped for voiceover. novel-storyboard produces a storyboard with hard segment-duration limits and generation prompts. Each skill checks its output with dozens of scripted quality gates, and the reports compose into a single html page. The scripts use only the Node standard library, with no npm dependencies and no API keys.
Who it is for. For creators of short AI dramas and video, screenwriters and artists working with generative pipelines.
Good fit when
- You need to turn a book into a short drama adaptation plan
- You need characters, scenes, props and prompts for image generation
- You need a scene-based screenplay and a storyboard with duration control
Not a fit when
- The task is not about short video or drama production
- You need finished footage rather than preparation materials and prompts
Example request
Turn this novel into a twenty-episode short drama adaptation planLimitations
Node 18 or newer is required; the scripts run without npm dependencies. The skills prepare materials and prompts but do not render video themselves. Image generation goes through the built-in imagegen in Codex; without it the image steps are skipped while the rest is still produced. The report interface defaults to Chinese, with an English variant enabled by the render --lang en flag. The storyboard prompts are tuned for a specific generation model.
How to disable. Run ./scripts/install.sh --uninstall to remove the symlinks, or delete the skill links from ~/.claude/skills/ and ~/.codex/skills/.
FAQ
Do I need an API key?
No. The skills run on the agent session quota, no API keys required, and the scripts use only the Node standard library.
Can I install just one skill?
Yes. Run ./scripts/install.sh with a skill name, for example ./scripts/install.sh novel-characters.

README in short
The README describes a short AI drama production pipeline of five skills: adaptation outline, characters, scene and prop art set, screenplay and storyboard. Each skill is self-contained in its own folder with a SKILL.md and can run on its own. The five stage reports compose into a single html page via an assembler script that does not touch the skills' code. Installation uses install.sh, which creates symlinks into the Claude Code or Codex directory, so a git pull applies without reinstalling. Node 18 or newer, no npm dependencies and no API keys. Apache-2.0 licensed.
