Compiling Entities

Compiles a comprehensive entry for a named entity by scanning ALL files, gathering every mention, and assembling a structured profile. Use when building out a full entry for any character, species, location, or concept, or when user says "compile", "flesh out", "full entry for", or "everything about [entity]". Does NOT extract multiple entities from one source — use /extracting-entities.

Compiling Entities

Assemble all information about a named entity from across the entire repo.

Process

  1. Search GLOSSARY.md, then grep all .md files for the entity name
  2. Read FULL content of every file mentioning the entity
  3. Compile into structured profile with sources cited
  4. Flag contradictions between sources
  5. Present for author review — do NOT write without approval

Does NOT extract multiple entities from one source (use /extracting-entities). Does NOT write original content (use /writing-worldbuilding).
