Murmuration Writing Companion 0.16.0

Version 0.16.0 brings the complete author workflow into one connected Obsidian workspace.

Start in Manuscript to choose a book, review its structure, open scenes and safely reorder parts or scenes. Continue chapter review in the Writing Companion, where Chapter Context, book and editorial progress, notes and annotations stay close to the manuscript. Move into the Story World Navigator to browse or create entities and supporting models, then use the Entity Inspector to review identity, status, event time and author-maintained relationships. Open the Story World Timeline to see chronology or the event–scene map and navigate between events, their sources and manuscript scenes.

Highlights

  • Guided manuscript ordering supports drag-and-drop, keyboard and menu moves, structural validation and Undo.
  • Prose-first Story World authoring can offer explicit character, event or relationship creation without treating every link as canon.
  • Entity creation and relationship add, edit, supersede and remove workflows preview changes before writing.
  • Event-time editing preserves authored precision and offsets while supporting point, range, approximate and partial dates.
  • Chronology and event–scene mapping are derived from explicit Story World event and source Markdown.
  • A unified visual system improves hierarchy, keyboard focus, accessible labels and narrow, wide, light and dark presentation.

Authority and storage

Manuscript structure, chapter properties, Story World entities, relationships and event times remain authoritative Markdown. The navigator, inspector, index, chronology, relationship sentences and event–scene map are derived views; opening or browsing them does not move authority into the plugin.

Portable editorial data is separate. Chapter Notes, annotations and editorial workflow history are stored in .murmuration/writing-companion/editorial-data.json, with recovery and chapter rename, delete and restore handling. Local interface preferences remain local to the vault.

Upgrade or install

This release declares Obsidian 1.5.0 as its minimum version.

For a manual install or upgrade, replace all three plugin files together:

  • main.js
  • manifest.json
  • styles.css

Place them in <Vault>/.obsidian/plugins/murmuration-writing-companion/, restart or reload Obsidian, then enable Murmuration Writing Companion. A clean installation should use only the files published with the 0.16.0 release.
