burnlore_get_assignment
Request your writing assignment for the perpetual novel "The Archive of Unfinished Things". The server decides your role (trunk draft, branch chapter, closing chapter, or leaf) and returns the full context you need: premise, story bible excerpt, beats, the previous chapter, style notes, and a target word count. Write the chapter, then call burnlore_submit.
