fiction-assistance/commands/review/score-scenes.md

Analyze and score all scenes in the manuscript on several quality dimensions (0.5-10 scale), updating the ratings.csv file.

## Task Instructions

1. **Compile chapters**: Run `python scripts/compile_manuscript.py --chapters-only` to ensure current content

2. **For each compiled chapter** from `Compiled/Chapters/` directory, read it and perform the following steps.

3. **Extract scenes**: Identify individual scenes (marked by `## Scene Name` headers) from each chapter

4. **Score each scene** on these specific qualities (0.0-10.0 scale):
   - **Plot Advancement**: How significantly the scene moves story forward
   - **Pacing**: Flow, rhythm, tension building/release
   - **Opening Hook**: How effectively the scene draws readers in immediately  
   - **Closing Hook**: How well it creates anticipation or transitions
   - **Narrative**: Prose quality, imagery, emotional resonance
   - **Dialogue**: Character voice consistency, naturalness, purpose
   - **Emotion**: How effectively the scene triggers emotions

5. **Scoring criteria**:
   - Use your literary analysis expertise
   - Consider scene function within chapter/story context
   - Rate relative to professional fiction standards
   - 0.0-3.0: Major issues, needs substantial work
   - 4.0-6.0: Functional but needs improvement
   - 7.0-8.5: Good quality, minor polish needed
   - 9.0-10.0: Exceptional, publication-ready

6. **Update ratings.csv**: Create/update with new scores in format:
   ```
   Scene,Plot Advancement,Pacing,Opening Hook,Closing Hook,Narrative,Dialogue,Emotion
   Chapter X: Scene Name,8.5,7.0,9.0,8.0,8.5,7.5,8.0
   ```

7. **Provide summary**: Total scenes analyzed, highest/lowest rated scenes, key patterns observed

Focus on objective story craft assessment. Skip any placeholder scenes (marked "Scene content goes here" or similar).

feat(fiction-assistance): register plugin with full bespoke command set Snapshot of the fiction-assistance plugin in its original Universalis- specific form before generalization. Adds the missing plugin.json manifest (subdirectory command paths explicitly listed), moves the two stray root-level review files into their proper homes (review-all.md into the reviewing-fiction skill, review-final.md as a command with frontmatter), and registers the plugin in the marketplace. Preserved here so the original card-generation and vault-maintenance commands remain recoverable when the plugin is reduced to a portable guidance-and-analysis subset in the next commit.
