+# GitHub Gists Backup Testing Guide
+
+## Overview
+Writingway 2 now includes automatic cloud backup to GitHub Gists. This guide will help you test all the backup features.
+
+## Prerequisites
+- GitHub account
+- GitHub Personal Access Token with `gist` permission
+
+## Setup GitHub Token
+
+1. **Go to GitHub Token Settings**
+   - Visit: https://github.com/settings/tokens
+   - Click "Developer settings" → "Personal access tokens" → "Tokens (classic)"
+   - Click "Generate new token (classic)"
+
+2. **Configure Token**
+   - Note: `Writingway Backup`
+   - Expiration: Choose your preference (e.g., "No expiration")
+   - Permissions: Check **only** the `gist` checkbox
+   - Click "Generate token"
+   - **Copy the token immediately** (you won't see it again!)
+
+## Testing Steps
+
+### 1. Initial Setup
+
+1. Start Writingway 2 using `start.bat`
+2. Create a test project (or use existing one):
+   - Add a few chapters
+   - Add some scenes with content
+   - Add some compendium entries
+3. Open the main menu (☰) and click "☁️ Cloud Backup"
+4. Paste your GitHub token in the "GitHub Token" field
+5. Click "Save Settings"
+   - **Expected**: Status shows "✓ Connected as: [your-username]"
+
+### 2. Manual Backup
+
+1. Click "Backup Now" button
+2. **Expected**: 
+   - Status shows "Backing up..."
+   - Then shows "Backed up"
+   - Alert: "Backup successful!"
+3. Go to https://gist.github.com/
+4. **Verify**: You should see a new private Gist with your project name
+
+### 3. Auto-Backup
+
+1. In the Cloud Backup settings, check "Enable automatic backup (every 5 minutes)"
+2. Click "Save Settings"
+3. Make some changes to your project:
+   - Edit scene content
+   - Add a new chapter
+   - Modify compendium entries
+4. Wait 5 minutes
+5. Check the console (F12) for: `✓ Auto-backup successful`
+6. Go to your Gist on GitHub
+7. Click "Revisions" tab
+8. **Verify**: Multiple versions should appear
+
+### 4. Restore from Backup
+
+1. Make significant changes to your project that you'll recognize:
+   - Add a scene titled "TEST SCENE - TO BE DELETED"
+   - Add some unique content
+2. Click "Backup Now" to save this state
+3. Make MORE changes:
+   - Delete the test scene
+   - Add different content
+4. Click "📥 Restore from Backup"
+5. **Expected**: Modal shows list of backups with timestamps
+6. Select the most recent backup (top of list)
+7. Click "Restore"
+8. Confirm the warning dialog
+9. **Verify**: 
+   - Project reloads
+   - "TEST SCENE - TO BE DELETED" is back
+   - All content matches the backup
+
+### 5. Multiple Projects
+
+1. Create a second test project
+2. Add some content
+3. Click "Backup Now"
+4. Go to GitHub Gists
+5. **Verify**: Two separate Gists (one per project)
+6. Switch between projects
+7. Click "Backup Now" for each
+8. **Verify**: Each project updates its own Gist
+
+### 6. Error Handling
+
+Test these scenarios:
+
+**Invalid Token:**
+1. Enter a fake token: `ghp_fake123456789`
+2. Click "Save Settings"
+3. **Expected**: Alert: "Invalid GitHub token: Invalid token"
+
+**No Token:**
+1. Clear the token field
+2. Try "Backup Now"
+3. **Expected**: Alert: "Please configure GitHub token and select a project first."
+
+**Restore Without Backup:**
+1. Create a brand new project (never backed up)
+2. Try "📥 Restore from Backup"
+3. **Expected**: Alert: "No backup configured for this project."
+
+### 7. Persistence Test
+
+1. Configure backup settings (token + auto-backup enabled)
+2. Close the browser
+3. Reopen Writingway 2
+4. Open Cloud Backup settings
+5. **Verify**: 
+   - Token is still there (masked as dots)
+   - Auto-backup checkbox is still checked
+   - Username is shown
+6. Wait 5 minutes
+7. **Verify**: Auto-backup runs automatically
+
+## Expected Backup Contents
+
+Each backup JSON should contain:
+- `version`: "2.0"
+- `exportedAt`: ISO timestamp
+- `project`: Project metadata
+- `chapters`: Array of all chapters
+- `scenes`: Array of all scenes
+- `sceneContents`: Object mapping scene IDs to text content
+- `compendium`: Array of compendium entries
+- `prompts`: Array of custom prompts
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Backup Not Working
+1. Check browser console (F12) for errors
+2. Verify token has `gist` permission
+3. Check network tab for API responses
+
+### Auto-Backup Not Running
+1. Check "Enable automatic backup" is checked
+2. Verify token is saved
+3. Check console for timer initialization message
+4. Wait the full 5 minutes (timer starts from app load)
+
+### Restore Not Working
+1. Verify the Gist exists on GitHub
+2. Check that `currentProjectGistId` is set (it's automatic after first backup)
+3. Look for error messages in browser console
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+✅ Token validation works
+✅ Manual backup creates/updates Gist
+✅ Auto-backup runs every 5 minutes
+✅ Backup list shows all versions
+✅ Restore recovers all project data
+✅ Settings persist across sessions
+✅ Each project has separate Gist
+✅ Error messages are clear and helpful
+
+## Notes
+
+- Backups are **private** by default (not visible to others)
+- GitHub has **no storage limits** for Gists
+- Version history is kept **indefinitely** by GitHub
+- You can manually edit/delete Gists from https://gist.github.com/
+- Auto-backup only runs when the app is open
+- Backups include everything EXCEPT workshop chat sessions
+
+## Security
+
+- Token is stored in `localStorage` (local to your browser)
+- Token is sent only to `api.github.com` via HTTPS
+- All Gists are private (unless you manually change them)
+- You can revoke the token anytime from GitHub settings
