Claude Cowork & Plugin

Run every StorytellerOS studio from inside a Claude conversation — drafting titles, generating story bibles, capturing tasks, logging finance, managing your calendar, all without leaving the chat.

What you'll need

  • An active StorytellerOS account.
  • Claude Cowork (claude.ai/code) or Claude Code in the terminal.
  • ~5 minutes to add the connector + install the plugin.

What is this?

StorytellerOS ships a Claude plugin that lets you drive the entire workspace from inside a conversation. Ask Claude to draft chapter 4 in your cozy pen-name's voice, build out a full story bible from an uploaded manuscript, log a $400 editing expense to the right title, start a writing timer, schedule a release-day event, or pull a quarter's finance summary — all without leaving Claude.

Under the hood the plugin talks to a hosted MCP endpoint at https://storytelleros.com/api/mcp that mirrors the public/api/v1/* REST surface. Everything Claude does, you can do from the dashboard — and everything you do from the dashboard, Claude can do too.

Two pieces, intentionally split

  1. The connector lives in Claude itself (Cowork or Claude Code). It holds your credentials and authenticates with our OAuth endpoint.
  2. The plugin is installed from the marketplace and adds the conversational skills + slash commands that make Claude fluent in StorytellerOS-specific workflows.

We split them on purpose. When a plugin bundles a connector, Cowork locks the credential fields — which would block you from pasting your own. Keeping the connector separate keeps your credentials editable and revocable.

What's included

  • ~80 MCP tools (stos_*) — full CRUD across titles, chapters, scenes, characters, locations, lore, events, tasks, calendars, time-tracking, finance, sales, marketing, and settings. See the tools reference.
  • 28 skills— markdown chat guides that make Claude fluent in specific workflows (getting started, drafting chapters, building bibles, logging finance, driving WordPress, the social hand-off, …). See the skills reference.
  • 7 slash commands — quick-fire commands like /stos-task and /stos-bible. See the slash command reference.

Social work routes to Author Automations

StorytellerOS handles writing, knowledge, finance, calendar, sales, and marketing. Social posts and campaigns are handled by the Author Automations Social plugin — it already covers 15 platforms with 22 dedicated aa_* tools.

When you ask Claude to post, schedule, or run a campaign, the StorytellerOS plugin's social-handoffskill looks up your pen name's AA profile id and routes the call directly to AA's tools — no double-hop, no proxy. Install both plugins side-by-side and they work in the same Cowork conversation. See how the hand-off works.

No story-bible shortcuts

When Claude generates a story bible (characters, locations, events, lore), it saves each entry as its own POST — never batched. For large manuscripts that means 50+ individual stos_characters_create calls. Slower than a bulk upload, but every field arrives intact instead of getting truncated mid-batch. This is deliberate.
