Editor's 5-dimension pass
Last updated May 14, 2026 · 3 min read
The AI Editor doesn't just give one overall score — it splits the analysis into 5 independent dimensions, each with its own assessment and per-item suggestions.
Five dimensions
| Dimension | What |
|---|---|
| Story & Structure | Narrative structure, theme depth, plot logic |
| Character Depth | Character arcs, motivation, dialogue, relationships |
| Pacing & Tension | Hooks, DNF risk, tension curve |
| Prose Craft | Show/Tell, voice, style consistency |
| Market Fit | Target-audience positioning, genre conventions |
The "editor dimension checkboxes" in set-up decide which run (all or a subset). A combined Editor letter is also produced.
How each dimension is presented
In the Editor detail tab, each dimension has:
- A dimension summary — the overall judgment for that dimension
- Per-item suggestions — each tagged with a severity (Critical / Major / Minor / Suggestion) + problem found + suggestion + cited passage (§) + "Mark as Resolved"
Full detail on severity and items: Severity & editor detail
Editor 5 dimensions vs Reader 5 diagnostics
| Editor 5 dimensions | Reader 5 diagnostics | |

| Angle | Editor | Reader |
| What | Is the content good | How readers experience it |
| Form | Dimension summary + per-item suggestions | Sub-scores + per-reader comments |
Most useful together.
