Overview
Generates a DITA 1.3 <bookmap> template from a title, ID, and optional chapter list.
Usage
python scripts/generate_bookmap.py "My Book Title" my-book-id
# Pre-fill chapters
python scripts/generate_bookmap.py "My Book Title" my-book-id \
--chapters chapter1.dita chapter2.dita chapter3.dita \
--appendix appendixA.ditaOutput
Well-formed XML to stdout including:
<?xml?>+<!DOCTYPE bookmap PUBLIC "-//OASIS//DTD DITA 1.3 BookMap//EN"><booktitle>with<mainbooktitle>and<booktitlealt>placeholder<bookmeta>with<publisherinformation>and<bookid>scaffolding<frontmatter>with<toc/>,<figurelist/>,<tablelist/>- One
<chapter>per--chaptersargument (or two placeholders) - One
<appendix>per--appendixargument (or one placeholder) <backmatter>with<indexlist/>
Common edge cases
- DTD order is enforced: front → chapters → appendix → back
<part>grouping is not generated by default; add manually if needed<booktitlealt>is for subtitles; remove if not needed

Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
