Seeds of the Throne

Seeds of the Throne began as years of conversations and thousands of story ideas. The Project Explorer shows how those ideas are being organized into characters, a world, a timeline, and a finished series.

The Project Explorer shows the live notes, decisions, and workshop used to develop Seeds of the Throne. Each step keeps confirmed decisions separate from suggestions and unanswered questions.

This is a public, read-only look at the real project, so it contains full spoilers. You can try the workshop, but your draft stays in this browser unless you export it.

  1. The author explains the story in ordinary language.

    The system records those ideas and separates confirmed decisions from suggestions and unanswered questions.

    Read how the system is designed

  2. The current workshop asks one consequential question at a time.

    Each question helps the author decide a missing cause, character choice, relationship, world rule, or event.

    Open a workshop question

  3. Accepted answers are added where they belong.

    An accepted decision can update character notes, the timeline, world rules, plot events, and the list of remaining questions.

    Review decisions and supporting information

  4. Use the completed plan to write and revise scenes.

    The planned system will create scene outlines, draft prose, check continuity, revise weak sections, and assemble the manuscript for the author's approval.

Vault overview

See the whole story-development system at a glance.

605 notes work together as one system. The vault remembers where ideas came from, what the author decided, what remains uncertain, and what should happen next.

The vault turns conversations into organized story memory. It preserves sources, separates decisions from suggestions, finds missing connections, supports research and workshops, prepares scenes and prose, checks continuity, and publishes selected material without surrendering author control.

  • Working now Capture, memory, workshops, and research already operate.
  • Needs repair Current-state agreement, automatic checks, and decision updates still drift.
  • Planned next Durable answers, manuscript production, and mobile save are not built yet.

  1. Capture

    Conversations, mobile notes, and raw ideas are preserved.

  2. Understand

    Current context and compiled notes explain what the project means now.

  3. Decide

    Workshops ask one important question and preserve the author's answer.

  4. Develop

    Research, alternatives, story structure, and focused tests strengthen the work.

  5. Create

    Scene plans, prose, images, and manuscript material are produced for review.

  6. Share

    Selected material becomes the story site, Project Explorer, and public posts.

What lives where

Each area has a job. Folder names are secondary detail.

  • New material

    Preserves incoming ideas and the order in which they developed.

    00 Inbox, 01 Sessions

  • Story memory

    Keeps the detailed working knowledge and a smaller briefing used to resume work.

    02 Story, 03 Context

  • Research

    Separates questions, reports, and usable findings from story decisions.

    04 Research

  • Public work

    Holds reviewed material prepared for readers.

    05 Public

  • Drafts

    Holds scenes and manuscript candidates awaiting review.

    06 Draft

  • Decisions and direction

    Records choices, contradictions, current work, handoffs, and verification.

    07 QA, 07 Coordination

  • Development tools

    Diagnoses missing connections and tests possible story directions.

    08 Story Loop, 09 Story Exploration

  • Reusable methods

    Provides repeatable methods for writing, research, images, websites, and checks.

What already works, what needs repair, and what is still planned

Working well

  • Idea and session capture
  • Human-readable story memory
  • Author authority and decision boundaries
  • Research kept separate from story truth
  • Workshop questions that wait for an answer
  • Decisions, contradictions, and open questions
  • Visual identity and image controls
  • Markdown files and recoverable history
  • Searchable file access

Needs repair

  • One trustworthy current-state view
  • Automatic checks before a change is merged
  • Shared labels and stable record identifiers
  • Updating every affected note after a decision
  • Keeping the weekly cycle current
  • Clearer boundaries around older folders
  • A cleaner split between the repository and the live site

Planned next Not built yet

  • Durable integration of conversational answers
  • Automatic reports of what a decision would change
  • Complete scene-to-manuscript production
  • Manuscript assembly and export
  • Reliable mobile save, resume, and synchronization

The next build order

  1. Make builds and checks reliable.
  2. Create one trustworthy current state.
  3. Normalize the records for one small complete path.
  4. Connect accepted decisions to every affected file.
  5. Prove one complete path from conversation to approved manuscript material.
  6. Expand only after that path works.

Current story development

See what the story already has and what it still needs.

The system checks the whole story for missing causes, weak character decisions, unclear rules, and unfinished events. The results show the author what to work on next.

Current story premise

The colonization process trains participants and contains dangerous criminals.

Humanity developed the Luminai inside an interactive colonization environment. Sylvan and his Luminai are tested against Samuel Franklin, a criminal already held inside the containment process.

The current story problem Make the formal separation, rapid financial collapse, processing, exposure, and accepted placement feel inevitable.

Seeds Delegation Protocol

Author direction

Create a durable protocol for using subagents effectively and seamlessly during complex or long-running vault work. The author plans to work through examples in a later session to learn when delegation improves quality and when a single agent is better.

Decision

The protocol belongs in 07 Coordination/ as workflow memory, not story canon. The activation phrase is:

Use the Seeds delegation protocol.

This phrase authorizes bounded subagent delegation inside the current request. It does not expand permission for canon decisions, external publication, destructive actions, commits, pushes, or unrelated work.

Intended operating model

  • The primary agent remains responsible for author intent, canon protection, integration, final edits, validation, and the user-facing result.
  • Subagents handle concrete independent workstreams with focused context.
  • Read-heavy exploration, tests, audits, comparisons, and research are preferred delegation targets.
  • Concurrent editing is avoided by default; when writing is delegated, each file has one owner.
  • Subagent findings remain advisory until the primary agent verifies and integrates them.
  • The protocol is triggered by task shape and context pollution, not an arbitrary context-window percentage.

Future calibration

Use real examples to discover which Seeds tasks benefit from delegation. Record observed successes and failures before turning them into stricter project rules.

This session changes no story facts, canon status, or prose-style authority.
