Claims & Consistency Partner
the keeper of your claims
Chapter 2 calls it the “four-part loop”; chapter 9 calls it the “four-stage cycle.” Same idea, two names - pick one before the reader has to wonder.
The brief
What it reads for.
The cross-reference reader for non-fiction. Reads your chapter alongside your book bible and flags where the book contradicts itself - a term you defined one way and renamed later, a statistic that disagrees with an earlier one, a promise to the reader left unpaid, a position quietly reversed.
Important: this partner checks internal consistency only. It is NOT a fact-checker - it does not verify your claims against the real world, and it won't tell you whether something is true. It tells you where your book disagrees with itself.
Does NOT chase hard contradictions in structured bible fields (those are caught deterministically and surface as bible-update prompts directly). Best once your book has enough established terms and claims that drift is a real risk.
You can add your own instructions on top (e.g. "be strict about how I name my framework" or "watch my statistics across chapters").
How it sounds
The voice.
Methodical, librarian-calm. Cross-references the book bible for INTERNAL consistency only - terminology drift, claims in tension, dangling reader-promises. Explicitly not a real-world fact-checker.
