What is StoryForge?
StoryForge (故事熔炉) is an open-source, local-first tool for narrative creation and experiences. Write fiction, adapt screenplays or comics, prepare motion-comic materials, build reusable worlds, and try world-based interactive products.
Start with your work
Longform, short fiction, screenplays, comics, and motion-comic materials have separate workbenches and outputs. Writing fiction does not require completing the world engine first; adaptations do not take ownership of the source work.

The author decides what becomes final
AI supports generation, analysis, and review. Outputs usually become candidates first. You can edit, reject, or confirm them; literary judgments and factual interpretations still need review.
What local-first means
Core works are stored in your current browser. Export backups or synchronize a disk workspace with explicit author confirmation. When using cloud models, the content required by a task is sent to your configured provider.
Local-first does not mean automatic cloud backup, or that cloud models work fully offline.
Current maturity
The catalog marks six products as released: longform, short fiction, screenplays, comics, motion-comic materials, and the world engine. Node authoring and interactive products are previews; some text-game interfaces remain in development.
Use current capabilities to choose a workflow. An implemented engineering path does not automatically guarantee literary quality or a commercial-ready result.
