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.

Security

Grade A, and why

storyboard-manager 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 3 executable files (index.js, scripts/consistency_checker.py, scripts/timeline_tracker.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Storyboard Manager

Overview

The Storyboard Manager skill equips Claude with specialized knowledge and tools for creative writing workflows. It provides frameworks for character development, story structure patterns, automated timeline tracking, and consistency checking across narrative projects. This skill automatically adapts to various storyboard folder structures while maintaining best practices for novel, screenplay, and serialized fiction writing.

Core Capabilities

The skill provides four main capabilities:

1. Character Development & Management

Support creating deep, consistent character profiles with backstories, arcs, and relationships.

2. Story Planning & Structure

Guide plot development using established frameworks (Three-Act, Hero's Journey, Save the Cat, etc.) and help organize narrative elements.

3. Chapter & Scene Writing

Generate chapter content, scene breakdowns, and dialogue that maintains consistency with established characters and plot.

4. Timeline Tracking & Consistency Checking

Use automated tools to verify chronological consistency, character continuity, and world-building coherence.

Detecting Project Structure

The Storyboard Manager automatically detects and adapts to various folder organizations. Look for these common directory patterns:

Character folders: characters/, Characters/, cast/, Cast/ Chapter folders: chapters/, Chapters/, scenes/, Scenes/, story/ Planning folders: story-planning/, planning/, outline/, notes/ Summary files: summary.md, README.md, overview.md

When triggered, scan the project root to identify the structure and adjust workflows accordingly. If no standard structure exists, recommend organizing files using the pattern: characters/, chapters/, story-planning/, and summary.md.

Workflow Decision Tree

Use this decision tree to determine the appropriate workflow:

User Request
├─ Character-related? ("develop character," "create backstory," "character arc")
│  └─ → Character Development Workflow
│
├─ Planning/Plot? ("outline story," "plan act 2," "plot structure")
│  └─ → Story Planning Workflow
│
├─ Writing content? ("write chapter," "generate scene," "continue story")
│  └─ → Chapter/Scene Writing Workflow
│
└─ Checking/Analysis? ("check consistency," "track timeline," "find contradictions")
   ├─ Timeline? → Use timeline_tracker.py script
   └─ Consistency? → Use consistency_checker.py script

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.
