The problem it solves

Chapter Title Collision Finder Find duplicate and confusingly similar chapter titles within or across manuscripts. The command runs locally, uses explicit UTF-8 JSON input, and produces deterministic JSON or Markdown reports without modifying the supplied source material.

Who Chapter Title Collision Finder is for

  • People who need a small, purpose-built utility instead of a broad platform.
  • Users working with writing, chapter titles, similarity who want the documented v1.2.0 behavior.
  • People who prefer an open-source release with visible limitations, source, and license terms.

Intended result

Use unique manuscript IDs to compare books with identical display names independently. Inputs without IDs keep the existing name-based behavior.

This summary is reconciled from the current catalog and repository documentation.

Quick start

The shortest documented path into the current release.

Before running these source commands, download the v1.2.0 source archive, extract it, and open a terminal in the extracted project folder containing README.md. Follow the tagged README for required runtimes and any platform-specific setup.

python -m pip install .
chapter-title-collisions examples/sample.json
chapter-title-collisions examples/sample.json --format json --output report.json

The example documents the complete input shape. Version 1.1 supports similarity_threshold, ignore_words, and comparison_scope (all, within, or cross) and reports shared-token evidence for each candidate. Markdown is intended for immediate review; JSON preserves structured evidence for scripts and later comparison. An existing output file is never overwritten.

Current limitations

These boundaries are part of the product and prevent the page from implying unverified capability.

Similarity is lexical and deliberately conservative. Shared thematic words may be intentional, and meaning is not inferred.

Privacy and licensing

Review the actual data boundary before using a tool with sensitive inputs.

Privacy and safety

All title lists stay local.

Python 3.10 or newer is supported on Windows, macOS, and Linux. The package has no runtime dependencies, telemetry, account, or hosted service.

License and release

Chapter Title Collision Finder is published under MIT. The current cataloged release is v1.2.0, published 2026-10-16.
