nw-check-entities

nw-check-entities is a command for Claude Code from zhiliyouxian/claude-novel-writer. It costs 16 tokens per session (466 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A consistency checker for a novel’s entity library, the list of named people, places, and objects. It looks for duplicate records, conflicting names or aliases, similar spellings, and names used in chapters without being registered.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to inspect an entity database, compare similar names, check first appearances in chapters, and receive suggestions such as renaming or merging records.
Why use it?
It helps prevent one character or place from being represented more than once and exposes names that may be confused with each other. It also finds entities mentioned in chapters but missing from the library.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Fable 5.1 $0.00016 $0.00466
Opus 5 $0.00008 $0.00233

Security

Grade A, and why

nw-check-entities scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 12d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

/nw-check-entities

检查指定项目的实体库,发现重复、冲突和潜在问题。

用法

/nw-check-entities {project_id}

执行流程

调用 consistency-checker Skill 执行以下检查:

1. 重复检测

检查 entities.md 中是否有:

  • 标准名称重复
  • 同一实体ID出现多次

2. 冲突检测

检查是否有:

  • 别名与其他实体的标准名称冲突
  • 同一别名属于多个实体

3. 相似度检测

使用编辑距离算法检查:

  • 拼写相似的实体(可能是笔误)
  • 同音不同字的实体

4. 章节扫描

扫描所有章节,检查:

  • 未注册的实体名称
  • 实体首次出现章节是否正确

输出示例

🔍 实体检查: dao_immortal

实体总数: 46 个
  - 角色: 28
  - 地点: 15
  - 物品: 9

检查结果:

⚠️ 发现 2 处问题

1. 重复实体
   char_005 和 char_018 都叫 "李青云"
   建议: 合并或改名

2. 相似名称
   "云霄宗" (place_003) 与 "云霄峰" (place_008) 相似
   建议: 确认是否为不同地点

✅ 无别名冲突
✅ 无未注册实体

修复建议:
  - 全局替换: "将'李青云'改为'李清云'"
  - 合并实体: "合并 char_005 和 char_018"

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
