Direct answer
Use replace_accepted_chapter only when the author explicitly asks to replace the full text of an earlier accepted chapter. The save creates a new version and leaves the current writing cursor unchanged.
Step by step
The reliable workflow
- 1
Identify the accepted chapter
State the earlier chapter number and confirm it is not the current expected chapter.
- 2
Provide complete corrected text
Pass the full replacement chapter and the expected current version.
- 3
Confirm replacement intent
Approve replacing the stored accepted version.
- 4
Verify cursor stability
Check that the chapter version increased and the current chapter did not move.
Why it is a separate tool
Separating correction from ordinary acceptance prevents accidental overwrites and lets ChatGPT describe the confirmation accurately.
Version conflicts protect newer work
If the expected version no longer matches, reload status rather than forcing the replacement.
Downstream continuity
After a correction, refresh any packet marked stale before continuing the next chapter.
Frequently asked
Will correcting chapter two send me back to chapter three?
No. The current writing cursor remains where it was.

Continue the connected writing workflow.
