Slima
Brings your Slima novel projects into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other MCP clients with full read/write access to your manuscript files. You get standard file operations (read, write, edit, search, append, delete) plus book-specific tools for structure navigation, writing stats, and AI beta reader feedback from configurable personas. Works via OAuth-authenticated remote MCP for web clients or local stdio with an API token. Note that Script Studio books are read-only except for planning folders, while Writing Studio books are fully editable. Useful if you're already drafting in Slima and want your AI assistant to work directly with chapter files, character notes, and outlines without copy-paste loops.
