How do an episode's script and chapters get worked on from the creative interfaces?#

Guillaume's words, 2026-11-05#

Annotating Q7 of jgwill/miadi-orchestration-kit#133, where he accepted that a kept plan stays in captures/ and is copied under a chapter's name only when an episode decides it shapes that chapter:

"We can push another question ahead for next discussion : How will that script and chapter be worked on with the Author's desk (and any future creative expression interface/service where human will express themselves... (in simple ways, there is no connection now with the "Creative" domain and their interfacte with the system and these Markdown files now and we would need one so you would leave probably a related inquiry to miadi-chronicle://120 for that... (so that the Media Editor or something would try to interface with these script and chapter and how your work as Deep Diver will relate to that..."

And in take 261105215725 (Episode 567), on a new subdomain for writing, built from the Author's Desk of Episode 560:

"my feeling is that there is a relationship with the actual elements that are planned in the outline but how it fits in this whole thing is not obvious right now"

What is true today#

• The room reads these files by name. script.md and chapter-NN-script.md in an episode's folder become its spine and its segments (chronicle-episode skill, S11).
• The Author's Desk does not touch them. app/ncp/desk in jgwill/Miadi has no reference to script.md or to a chapter file. It reads prompts, plot threads and <episode>/proposals/*.yaml, and it keeps its own store (app/ncp/desk/lib/desk-store.ts).
• So a person in the Creative domain has no way to these Markdown files. Agents write them, in git.
• Episode 120 holds the relational media editor design, which is the likely place for that interface.
• Deep Diver now keeps plans. An outline or producer notes is a numbered file in captures/notebook-<id>/ (miadi-chronicle://251). --from-outline starts the next version from a kept plan, and Gemini Notebook rewords it.

What this inquiry asks#

1. How does a person at the Author's Desk, or at any later creative interface, read and change an episode's script and chapters?
2. What does the Media Editor need from those files, and through which door?
3. How does Deep Diver's work relate? A plan's items could feed a chapter, and a chapter could seed a plan. Which direction comes first, and who decides when a plan shapes a chapter?
