Overview
The Scene Inspector is the close-up view for one scene. The Timeline shows how scenes relate across the book; the Scene Inspector records what is true inside a specific scene.
Use it to capture story purpose, outcome, time, characters, knowledge, relationships, assets, custody, locations, metrics, warnings, notes and writing workflow. You do not need every section for every scene. The goal is to record the details that matter for the scene's role in the story and for future continuity.
How To Work With It
Start with the scene's basic shape: title, summary, timing, location, purpose and outcome. Then add the people, objects, plot threads and continuity details that change because this scene exists.
For example, if a character discovers a secret, record it in Knowledge. If a letter changes hands, record it in Assets or Custody. If a relationship turns colder, record a Relationship Event. If the scene pays off a mystery clue, record a Plot Thread Event.
