SC 01Overview

What it does

Run /drama-adapt in a folder that holds a novel .txt. After a short setup quiz (genre, a 30, 60 or 100 episode season, and a faithful, condensed or creative adaptation) it writes an analysis report, character profiles, an episode outline that marks the free and paid cut-off, one script file per episode ending on a hook, and a three-round QC report. By default it stops for confirmation at three points (pass --auto to skip them), saves progress to project.json so you can resume, and has flags to rerun a stage or specific episodes. The README lists Claude Code and the Superpowers skill framework as requirements, and the repo includes a six-episode worked example.

SC 02Install

How to install it

  • 01From the README

    The install command quoted from the repository README.

    git clone https://github.com/rorojiao/drama-adapt-skill.git cd drama-adapt-skill chmod +x install.sh ./install.sh
  • 02skills CLI, for Claude Code, Codex and others

    The open skills CLI from Vercel Labs installs a skill from a GitHub repo into the folder each agent expects. It asks which skills and which agents you want, and it installs for the current project unless you add the -g flag, which installs for your user account. Add --list to see what a repo contains before you install anything.

    npx skills add rorojiao/drama-adapt-skill
  • 03Claude Code, skills folder

    Copy the skill's folder, the one that holds SKILL.md, into ~/.claude/skills/ to use it in every project on your machine, or into .claude/skills/ in a repository to use it there and share it by committing it. Claude Code picks up changes to these folders during a session. If the folder did not exist when the session started, run /reload-skills.

  • 04Claude Code, plugin marketplace

    Some repos publish a plugin marketplace, a .claude-plugin/marketplace.json file. Add it in Claude Code, then install a plugin from it with /plugin install plugin-name@marketplace-name. Plugins can bundle hooks and MCP servers along with skills, so read the details panel before you confirm.

    /plugin marketplace add rorojiao/drama-adapt-skill
  • 05Codex, skills folder or $skill-installer

    Codex reads skills from .agents/skills in your working folder and its parent folders up to the repository root, and from $HOME/.agents/skills for every repository. Copy the skill's folder into one of them, or run $skill-installer inside Codex and ask it to install from the repo. Codex detects new skills automatically and needs a restart only if one does not appear.

The first command is quoted from the author's README. The others are the standard ways to install a skill from a GitHub repository. They are templates and may not apply here, for example if the repo has no plugin marketplace, so follow the README first.
