Duplicate beat

Creates a copy of this beat (title, description, notes, POV, mechanics — everything but dependencies) into another plot line of the current act. Useful for spinning the same moment across multiple choice paths, or seeding a "what-if" version on an alternate plot line.

Story Manuscript

Markdown export of every act, beat, mechanic, branch, and dependency. Paste into Claude / ChatGPT / etc. to fill story gaps, generate cinematic scripts, or expand cutscene dialogue. The same generator will be the data source when you wire MCP into Claude Desktop later.

Install IdeaCloud Capture

The browser extension lets you capture screenshots, page URLs, and quick notes from any tab into your IdeaCloud projects. Until we publish it to the Chrome Web Store, you'll load it as an unpacked developer extension. It's a one-time setup.

  1. Download the extension files
  2. Unzip it somewhere you'll keep it (the extension reads from this folder, so don't delete it).
  3. Open chrome://extensions (or edge://extensions in Edge).
  4. Toggle Developer mode in the top-right corner.
  5. Click Load unpacked and select the unzipped folder.
  6. Optional: pin the IdeaCloud icon to your toolbar. Press Alt+Shift+I anywhere to open it.

Firefox: same steps, but visit about:debugging → This Firefox → Load Temporary Add-on and pick manifest.json inside the unzipped folder.
