InkOS - Autonomous Novel Writing Agent

InkOS is a CLI tool for autonomous fiction writing powered by LLM agents. It orchestrates a multi-agent pipeline (Radar → Planner → Composer → Architect → Writer → Observer → Reflector → Normalizer → Auditor → Reviser) to generate, audit, and revise novel content with zero human intervention per chapter.

The pipeline operates in three phases:

• Phase 1 (Creative Writing, temp 0.7): Planner generates chapter intent with hook agenda, Composer selects relevant context, Writer produces prose with length governance and dialogue-driven guidance.
• Phase 2 (State Settlement, temp 0.3): Observer over-extracts 9 categories of facts, Reflector outputs a JSON delta (not full markdown), code-layer applies Zod schema validation and immutable state update. Hook operations use upsert/mention/resolve/defer semantics.
• Phase 3 (Quality Loop): Normalizer adjusts chapter length, Auditor runs 33-dimension check including hook health analysis, Reviser auto-fixes critical issues. Self-correction loop runs until all critical issues clear.

Truth files are persisted as schema-validated JSON (story/state/*.json) with markdown projections for human readability. SQLite temporal memory database (story/memory.db) enables relevance-based retrieval on Node 22+.
