kdp-publishing

v1.0.0

Claude Code plugin: typeset a print-ready Amazon KDP paperback with Typst — trim geometry biased to KDP's US standard sizes, a full-wrap cover built last from the interior's measured extent, mechanical pre-flight, and an upload folder. Production only; it does not write the book.

Included Skills4

kdp-cover-wrapskills/kdp-cover-wrap/SKILL.md

Build or edit a KDP full-wrap paperback cover in Typst — spine derived from the interior's measured extent, fold lines, safe zones, spine-text rules, and the layout traps that only show up in a printed proof. Use when building a cover, changing a cover design, diagnosing a spine that does not match the book, or preparing cover art for upload.

kdp-preflightskills/kdp-preflight/SKILL.md

Verify a built KDP book mechanically before upload — trim, page parity, gutter against the tiered minimum, font round-trip for silent glyph substitution, and the cover's spine against the interior's real extent. Use before any upload, after any rebuild, and when deciding whether a book is actually ready to print.

kdp-print-geometryskills/kdp-print-geometry/SKILL.md

Choose a KDP trim size, paper and margins, and compute spine width and full-wrap cover dimensions. Use when starting a book project, when deciding between trim sizes, when a page count changes and the cover has to follow, or whenever a spine, gutter, bleed or wrap dimension is being calculated or quoted. Biased toward KDP's US standard trim sizes.

kdp-typeset-interiorskills/kdp-typeset-interior/SKILL.md

Typeset a book interior for KDP with Typst — page geometry, gutter-aware margins, the even-page-count problem, and the Typst behaviours that fail silently. Use when building or debugging an interior PDF, changing a book's layout or typography, or working out why a Typst book build produced the wrong extent, wrong margins or wrong glyphs.
