Conflicts

The Conflicts dock is the timeline's conscience: it lists the contradictions the validator finds, so you can fix them.

What it shows

Every current problem — a character in two places at once, a scene before its hero is born, travel that is impossibly fast, a dangling reference, or a violation of a continuity rule you wrote.

Using it

• Click a conflict to jump to the offending event or entity.
• Suggest Fix with AI proposes a resolution grounded in the conflicting events (through your configured provider).
• Write your own rules with Manage Continuity Rules — a rule like a character must hold a title by a given year — and the timeline holds you to them.
• A clean timeline shows "No timeline conflicts — your timeline is consistent."
