fo-assistant: the assistant

Plugin types: Assistants.

FilmOpen’s default assistant answers questions about your film, reviews the story, and fills in fields where you are working. It is data, not a model: FilmOpen chooses a model from the assistant’s settings and runs it on your key or your FilmOpen credit.

Where it appears

• Ask about this film, anywhere: answers a question from what the project holds, every scene, character and location whole. Asked to, it can create what the film implies, and says which details it inferred.
• Explain my recent activity, on the Activity rail: what ran, what it cost, what failed and why.
• Review the story, on the Project rail: what is strong, what is missing, and three next steps.
• What is still unsaid, on the Project section: what the film leaves unsaid, from its own fields.
• Write the Synopsis, on the Synopsis section: asks for a two-sentence summary if the film doesn’t have one yet, then writes it.
• Describe character and its siblings, on a character, outfit, location or prop: reads the entity and fills in what it can, saying first what it read and what it will fill.

Set up

1. Install and allow FilmOpen Assistant in Settings → Plugins. It owns no key: it uses the text model you chose under Settings → General.
2. Add a text model’s key on its platform’s page, or sign in and use FilmOpen credit.
3. Press Ask about this film and ask a short question.

What it sends to the model depends on the action:

• Ask about this film: the project overview, the folders’ synopses, and every character, location and scene whole.
• Review the story: the same, and every outfit and prop whole.
• What is still unsaid: the project’s main details, the scenes’ synopses, and every character, location, outfit and prop whole.
• Write the Synopsis: the project’s details and notes; each character’s kind, aliases, summary, appearance, personality, relationships and reference prompt; each location’s kind, description and reference prompt; the folders’ synopses and notes; and each scene’s story and notes, with every block’s dialogue, direction and action.
• Describe character and Describe location: the entity whole, and every scene it appears in, with each block’s dialogue, direction and action.
• Describe outfit and Describe prop: the entity whole.
• Explain my recent activity: your recent activity.

Whole includes the entity’s creator notes and its prompts, negative prompts among them; it leaves out media and picks.
