Part 6. Practice A. Project Profile Template

A project profile is Librarying’s first fixed point. Creating this file before Stage 1 extraction keeps the worldbuilding axes of Stage 2 consolidation, the tone of Stage 4 narration, and validation criteria from drifting.

Copy the template below as {project-name}_profile.md.

# {Project Name} — Librarying Project Profile

- Input directory:
- Number of input documents:
- Estimated total input volume:
- Target headword range: 1,000–2,000 / other

## 2. Input document set

| Priority | Document name | Type | Location | Processing method | Exclusion / reason |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 |  | body text / rulebook / setting guide / glossary / author notes / other |  | direct extraction / text conversion required / exclude |  |

## 3. Nine-classification operating notes

| Object |  |  |
| Event |  |  |
| Device |  |  |
| Mise-en-scène |  |  |

## 4. Allowed values for worldbuilding axes

Principle: five to seven core axes + general + unclassified.

| Axis name | Description | Representative example | Reason to add / retain |

| General | General-purpose headwords that belong to no particular worldbuilding domain |  | Required |
| Unclassified | Temporary headwords not yet decided |  | Required |
|  |  |  |  |

## 5. Supporting-document catalog

| Document name | Needed? | Creation point | Consuming task |
|---|---|---|---|
| character-relationship-map.md | required / conditional / exclude | before Stage 4 / after Stage 4 / before handoff | writing / character build / lorebook |
| chronology.md | required / conditional / exclude |  |  |
| term-translation-table.md | required / conditional / exclude |  |  |

## 6. Stage 4 narrative-tone guidance

- Base tone:
- Sentence length:
- Forbidden tones:
- Hub narration standard:
- Leaf narration standard:
- Attitude for writing translation notes:

## 7. Validation criteria

| Item | Target |
|---|---|
| Stage 1 input coverage | Sources exist from the beginning, middle, and end of every major document |
| Stage 2 canonical-keyword duplicates | 0 |
| Stage 2 allowed-worldbuilding-axis violations | 0 |
| Stage 3 file-count match | Stage 2 CSV row count matches the number of `.md` headword files |
| Stage 4 LLM completion rate | 95% or higher |
| Handoff state | ready_for_consumption |

## 8. Decision log

| Date | Decision | Reason | Scope of impact | Approver |
|---|---|---|---|---|
|  |  |  |  |  |

Usage notes

A profile is not a document written once and discarded. When you change worldbuilding axes, add input documents, or change Stage 4 tone standards, record the change in this file’s decision log. Only then can the Stage 3 manifest and Chapter 10 validation trace why the current state came to be.
