Continuity

By LAWRENCE ANTHONY HUTCHINS

Overview

Keep character details, world rules, and story events consistent across ChatGPT conversations. Save approved facts and scene summaries, retrieve them when continuing a story in a new chat, and check drafts against saved canon for contradictions. Save provisional checkpoints for unfinished scenes, unresolved questions, and next steps. Continuity receives only content sent through its tools with your permission. It does not automatically back up entire chats, recover unsaved details, or guarantee error-free writing. Requires an existing Continuity account with Pro or active trial access.

Tools

ChatGPT

Retrieve locked canon for the assistant to compare against a short proposed scene. This tool supplies evidence; the assistant must identify contradictions. Does not save or approve the scene.

continuity_build_handoff

ChatGPT

Build the current Continuity handoff text for a project and task. Read-only.

continuity_confirm_membership

ChatGPT

Confirm the signed-in user's application status and assigned membership tier. All memberships are $0 during beta. Never request a purchase or provide a payment upsell. Read-only.

continuity_get_media

ChatGPT

Retrieve a temporary signed download URL for one media file belonging to an authorized project. Read-only.

continuity_get_project_context

ChatGPT

Reconstruct provider-neutral durable project context with provenance/certainty labels and a base checkpoint for stale-write protection. Read-only.

continuity_get_project_state

ChatGPT

Load durable project state including focus, next step, latest checkpoint, and counts. Read-only.

continuity_list_media

ChatGPT

List media files in an authorized Continuity project. Read-only; no delete capability.

continuity_list_projects

ChatGPT

List the signed-in user's Continuity projects. Read-only.

continuity_save_update

ChatGPT

SAVE ACTION. Persist a structured CONTINUITY UPDATE as a checkpoint and update durable project state. This changes user data.

continuity_upload_media

ChatGPT

Upload a NEW image or media file to an authorized project using base64 bytes, max 2 MB per MCP call. Never replaces or deletes existing files.

create_story_project

ChatGPT

Create a new private story project when the user asks. Does not save canon or scenes.

get_canon_history

ChatGPT

Read previous and new content for a saved canon entry, newest first. No changes are made.

get_continuity_context

ChatGPT

Retrieve relevant canon, recent approved scenes, and the latest provisional checkpoint before continuing a saved story or recovering it in a new chat. request is a brief scene/topic query, never a chat transcript. Results are a selection; use search_story_canon for specific missing facts.

list_approved_scenes

ChatGPT

Read approved scene summaries in story order. Page with offset to inspect older scenes or verify a scene number before saving.

list_story_checkpoints

ChatGPT

Retrieve provisional story handoffs to recover progress across chats. These notes never override approved canon. Page with offset for older checkpoints.

list_story_projects

ChatGPT

Find the user’s saved story projects before starting or resuming a story. Use the returned ID; do not guess projects. Page with offset.

record_approved_scene

ChatGPT

Store a concise summary of a scene the user has approved. Never record an unapproved draft. An occupied scene number is preserved unless replaceExisting is true and the user requested replacement. Identical retries return the saved scene.

save_story_checkpoint

ChatGPT

Preserve a concise story-session handoff when the user asks to save progress or has authorized ongoing checkpoints for this story. Stores provisional notes, not canon or an approved scene. Separate established progress from unresolved ideas. Send only focused story state, never a full transcript, credentials, or unrelated personal details. Reuse checkpointId on retries.

search_story_canon

ChatGPT

Search saved canon by literal title/content text, or browse every entry with an empty query and offset. Use to verify details before revising an entry or when context retrieval omits something.

upsert_canon_entry

ChatGPT

Save a fact or revise canon only after the user approves it. Preserve the existing title/kind. LOCKED requires approval as established fact; brainstorming is not approval. Existing entries require expectedRevision from retrieval; conflicting edits fail without overwriting. Identical retries leave revision history unchanged.
