“She already knows” can read as a threat, a joke or a tutorial prompt. A spreadsheet cell won’t tell the translator which one. 🧭 Arcweave keeps source text, surrounding story flow and review status together, so the scene travels with the line. docs.arcweave.com/project-tool...

Your choice text starts on the board ✨ In Arcweave, a connection’s label is the text shown on its option button in Play Mode. Write that player-facing line early and it’s easier to spot a vague choice before someone meets it in a playtest. 🧡 docs.arcweave.com/project-item...

“Wait, which scene?” 💬 Pin feedback to the board instead. Arcweave comments stay connected to the place they refer to, with replies, @mentions and a resolve option when the note’s done. Less context-hunting. More making. docs.arcweave.com/project-item...
