Excerpt

Book Companion Skill

Overview

Convert book material into a reader-friendly, executable Codex workflow. Preserve the author's voice, make the task usable by someone who only has the book in front of them, and produce artifacts that can be shared through GitHub or linked from a printed/e-book chapter.

Workflow

Identify the source material:
- Book title or working title
- Chapter or section
- Reader goal
- Raw exercise, prompt, note, or example
- Expected output format, if provided

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
