- Skills cover story structure, premise/theme, beats and more; skill bodies are in Chinese, frontmatter descriptions in English with Chinese keywords so both languages trigger them
- Install via /plugin marketplace add jtydhr88/screenwriting-skills then /plugin install screenwriting@screenwriting-skills
- The author ran a comparison: had Claude write a 100-minute feature screenplay with the skill set and one without, then compared quality
- The repo has drawn 280 stars
