AI agent for scriptwriters
Table Read Feedback Agent
A ranked rewrite list from the read, checked against the next read
What it does
Comments from table reads are scattered and not turned into rewrites. This agent takes the recording notes and the comments from the people at the read. It matches each comment to the page and scene, groups repeated notes and ranks them by how many people raised them. Then it drafts a rewrite list with the pages affected. After the next read, it checks which problems are gone and which remain, and whether a rewrite created a new problem. The writer approves which notes to act on. Edge case: a note given by only one person but about a plot hole is kept in a separate list for the writer to judge, not dropped.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
Read the steps as a list
- Table read ends
- Collect notes and comments
- Match each comment to a page and scene
- Group repeated notes and count the people

- Writer chooses which notes to act onThe agent waits here for your OK.
- Wait for the revised draft and the next read
- Compare the new notes with the list
- Are the ranked problems gone in the new read?If not: carry the remaining issues to the next list and note what changed. Back to step 6.
- Updated rewrite list
How it decides
Notes are grouped by page and issue. Rank is the number of people who raised it. Single notes about logic stay on a watch list.
- Rank by the number of people who raised the note
- Keep single notes about plot logic on a watch list
- Track each issue by page number
- Mark an issue solved only after the next read
