Hey, it's really nice you're supporting your wife like this! But there's nothing about how you're using AI as the "Lore Auditor" in the actual post?

Thanks! You caught us—the blog post is definitely more about the 'Why' (the creative philosophy) than the 'How' (the technical implementation).

Here’s the technical side: I've built a private RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) system. We've indexed our 'Lucent Universe' world-bible—which includes everything from character timelines to the specific physical laws of Lucarn shapeshifting (conservation of mass, thermal limits, etc.)—into a vector database.

I essentially treat the world-bible as 'Source Truth' and the draft manuscript as 'Code' to be linted. We run an audit script that cross-references new chapters against the index to flag logical breaks—like a character knowing something they haven't learned yet, or a physical impossibility in a shift.

It solves the massive cognitive load of maintaining 300k words of consistency without the machine ever touching the actual prose generation. If there’s interest, I’d be happy to do a deeper write-up on the stack itself!
