**Features:**
- 📖 Segment chapters into editable markdown files
- ✏️ In-browser editing with live preview
- 🔀 Git integration (status, diff, commit, push)
- 📁 Convention-based file organization
- 🔄 Assemble segments back into chapters

## Installation

```bash
pip install writer-reader
```

Or install from source:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/bobmatnyc/writer-reader.git
cd writer-reader
pip install -e .

## Quick Start

### 1. Initialize a new project

```bash
writer-reader init my-book --title "My Book" --author "My Name"
cd my-book
```

### 2. Add your chapters

Place markdown files in `chapters/`:
```
my-book/
├── chapters/
│   ├── chapter-01-introduction.md
│   ├── chapter-02-the-beginning.md
│   └── ...
```

### 3. Segment chapters

```bash
writer-reader segment
```

Creates:
```
my-book/
├── segments/
│   ├── ch01-introduction/
│   │   ├── _meta.yaml
│   │   ├── 01-introduction.md
│   │   ├── 02-the-beginning.md
│   │   └── ...
│   └── _index.yaml
```

### 4. Start the editor

```bash
writer-reader serve
```

Open http://localhost:5555

## File Convention

```
segments/
├── ch01-chapter-title/
│   ├── _meta.yaml           # Chapter metadata
│   ├── 01-opening.md        # First segment
│   ├── 02-section-name.md   # Named section
│   └── ...
├── ch02-next-chapter/
│   └── ...
└── _index.yaml              # Master index
```

### Segment Types

- **chapter-title**: The `# Chapter N: Title` heading
- **section**: `## Section Name` headers
- **prose**: Content between `---` dividers

### Metadata Format

`_meta.yaml`:
```yaml
