Auto-draft the whole book

Draft every empty chapter in one background job, with full story continuity, resumable and metered per chapter.

⚡ Draft the whole book on the outline screen writes every empty chapter in order, start to finish.

How it runs

On the server, as a background job — not in your browser. Close the tab, lose your connection, put the laptop to sleep: the job carries on and you pick it up where it got to.

A progress overlay shows which chapter it is on, with a Stop button.

What each chapter gets

Exactly the context a single enhancement gets: your premise, the story codex, the full outline with the current chapter marked, and a synopsis of everything written so far — including the chapters this same job just wrote.

That last part is what makes it produce a book rather than a pile of chapters.

Metering, and stopping

Charged per chapter as it goes, not up front. So:

  • Running out of credits stops it cleanly at the chapter boundary. It does not fail halfway and take your balance with it.
  • Stopping is cheap. You have paid for the chapters that were written.
  • A failed chapter is refunded.

Re-running it

Already-written chapters are skipped. So a second run only fills what is still empty, which makes it safe to:

  • run it again after adding chapters to the outline,
  • resume after stopping,
  • delete a chapter you disliked and regenerate just that one.

It will never overwrite a chapter that has text in it.

What to watch for

  • Autosave pauses for the book being drafted, so your editor cannot clobber the worker's writes. It resumes when the job ends. Do not sit editing a book while it drafts.
  • One job at a time per account. Starting a second returns you to the one already running rather than queueing another.
  • This is a first draft. It is a genuinely useful one, and it is still a first draft — the recommended path remains chapter by chapter, because a book you have read as it was written is a more coherent book.
  • Check the model first. Auto-draft uses your selected model for every chapter, so the per-chapter cost multiplies by the length of your outline.
