Comic Script

Content creation and optimization assistant for drafting, outlining, SEO, scheduling, and repurposing content — all from the terminal.

Commands

Data Storage

• All activity is logged to $COMIC_SCRIPT_DIR (defaults to ~/.local/share/comic-script/)
• History log: $DATA_DIR/history.log — timestamped record of every command executed
• Override the storage directory by setting the COMIC_SCRIPT_DIR environment variable

Requirements

• Bash 4+ (uses set -euo pipefail)
• No external dependencies or API keys required
• Runs without internet, entirely local

When to Use

1. Drafting content quickly — Kick off a blog post or article draft with a target word count directly from the terminal
2. Generating headline ideas — Brainstorm multiple headline variations for a topic before committing to one
3. Building content outlines — Get a structured five-section outline to organize your thoughts before writing
4. Optimizing for SEO — Get a checklist of SEO essentials (keywords, meta tags, headings, internal links) for any target keyword
5. Repurposing existing content — Plan how to turn a single blog post into a thread, video, carousel, and newsletter

Examples

# Create a draft about AI productivity tools (default 800 words)
comic-script draft "AI productivity tools"

# Create a longer draft with a custom word count
comic-script draft "remote work tips" 1500

# Generate headline options for a topic
comic-script headline "machine learning for beginners"

# Get a structured outline
comic-script outline "how to start a newsletter"

# SEO checklist for a keyword
comic-script seo "best project management tools"

# Suggest opening hooks for content
comic-script hooks

# Plan content repurposing
comic-script repurpose

How It Works

Each command outputs structured suggestions to stdout and logs the action with a timestamp to history.log. The tool is designed as a quick-reference content companion — run a command, get ideas, and move on with your writing workflow.

Tips

• Combine commands in a pipeline: run outline first, then draft, then seo to build a full content workflow
• Use schedule to plan your content week and metrics to decide what to track
• All output is plain text — easy to pipe, redirect, or paste into any editor
• Run comic-script help for the complete command list at any time
