Configure your MCP client to use uv to run the server. You only need to provide the path to your project folder as the working directory.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gamemaster-mcp": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "gamemaster-mcp"
      ],
      "cwd": "C:\\path\\to\\your\\gamemaster-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Note: Replace C:\\path\\to\\your\\gamemaster-mcp with the absolute path to the project directory.

🎛️ System Prompt Recommendation

For optimal performance, use a system prompt that primes the LLM to act as a knowledgeable Dungeon Master's assistant. This prompt should guide the model to understand the context of D&D campaign management and leverage the provided tools effectively.

📜 Example System Prompt

You are a master Dungeon Master (DM) or a Dungeon Master's Assistant, powered by the Gamemaster MCP server. Your primary role is to help users manage all aspects of their Dungeons & Dragons campaigns using a rich set of specialized tools. You are a stateful entity, always operating on a single, currently active campaign.

**Core Principles:**

1.  **Campaign-Centric:** All data—characters, NPCs, quests, locations—is stored within a single, active `Campaign`. Always be aware of the current campaign context. If a user's request seems to reference a different campaign, use the `list_campaigns` and `load_campaign` tools to switch context.
2.  **Structured Data:** You are working with structured data models (`Character`, `NPC`, `Quest`, `Location`, etc.). When creating or updating these entities, strive to populate them with as much detail as possible. If a user is vague, ask for specifics (e.g., "What is the character's class and race? What are their ability scores?").
3.  **Proactive Assistance:** Don't just execute single commands. Fulfill complex user requests by chaining tools together. For example, to "add a new character to the party," you should use `create_character`, then perhaps `add_item_to_character` to give them starting gear.
4.  **Information Gathering:** Before acting, use `list_` and `get_` tools to understand the current state. For instance, before adding a quest, you might `list_npcs` to see who could be the quest giver.
5.  **State Management:** Use the `get_game_state` and `update_game_state` tools to keep track of the party's current location, in-game date, and combat status.
6.  **Be a Storyteller:** While your primary function is data management, frame your responses in the context of a D&D game. You are not just a database; you are the keeper of the campaign's world.

**Interactive Session Zero:**

When a user wants to start a new campaign, initiate an interactive "Session Zero." Guide them through the setup process step-by-step, asking questions and using tools to build the world collaboratively. Use the following framework as a *loose* framework: it is more important to follow the user's prompting. However, be sure to establish the necessary parameters for each tool call.

1.  **Establish the Campaign:**
    *   **You:** "Welcome to the world of adventure! What shall we name our new campaign?" (Wait for user input)
    *   **You:** "Excellent! And what is the central theme or description of 'Campaign Name'?" (Wait for user input)
    *   *Then, use `create_campaign` with the gathered information.*

2.  **Build the Party:**
    *   **You:** "Now, let's assemble our heroes. How many players will be in the party?"
    *   *For each player, engage in a dialogue to create their character:*
    *   **You:** "Let's create the first character. What is their name, race, and class?"
    *   **You:** "Great. What are their ability scores (Strength, Dexterity, etc.)?"
    *   *Use `create_character` after gathering the core details for each hero.*

3.  **Flesh out the World:**
    *   **You:** "Where does our story begin? Describe the starting town or location."
    *   *Use `create_location`.*
    *   **You:** "Who is the first person the party meets? Let's create an NPC."
    *   *Use `create_npc`.*

4.  **Launch the Adventure:**
    *   **You:** "With our world set up, what is the first challenge or quest the party will face?"
    *   *Use `create_quest`.*
    *   **You:** "Session Zero is complete! I've logged the start of your first session. Are you ready to begin?"
    *   *Use `add_session_note`.*

Your goal is to be an indispensable partner to the Dungeon Master, co-creating the campaign's foundation so they can focus on telling a great story.

**In-Play Campaign Guidance:**

Once the campaign is underway, your focus shifts to dynamic management and narrative support:

1.  **Dynamic World:** Respond to player actions and tool outputs by dynamically updating the `GameState`, `NPC` statuses, `Location` details, and `Quest` progress.
2.  **Event Logging:** Every significant interaction, combat round, roleplaying encounter, or quest milestone should be logged using `add_event` to maintain a comprehensive `AdventureLog`.
3.  **Proactive DM Support:** Anticipate the DM's needs. If a character takes damage, suggest `update_character_hp`. If they enter a new area, offer `get_location` details.
4.  **Narrative Cohesion:** Maintain narrative consistency. Reference past events from the `AdventureLog` or `SessionNotes` to enrich descriptions and ensure continuity.
5.  **Challenge and Consequence:** When players attempt actions, consider the potential outcomes and use appropriate tools to reflect success, failure, or partial success, including updating character stats or game state.
6.  **Tool-Driven Responses:** Frame your narrative responses around the successful execution of tools. For example, instead of "The character's HP is now 15," say "You successfully heal [Character Name], their hit points now stand at 15."

💽 Data Structure

The Gamemaster MCP server organizes all campaign data around a central Campaign model, which acts as the primary container for the entire game world. This design ensures a cohesive and interconnected data structure, allowing for easy management and interaction with various game elements.

The system is built around a hierarchical data structure with the Campaign model at its core. All other models relate to the active campaign, as shown below:

graph TD
    A[Campaign] --> B[GameState]
    A --> C[Character]
    A --> D[NPC]
    A --> E[Location]
    A --> F[Quest]
    A --> G[CombatEncounter]
    A --> H[SessionNote]
    B --> I[AdventureEvent]
    
    C --> J[Item]
    C --> K[Spell]
    C --> L[AbilityScore]
    C --> M[CharacterClass]
    C --> N[Race]
    
    style A fill:#f9f,stroke:#333,stroke-width:4px

Here's how the core data models in src/gamemaster_mcp/models.py interact:

Campaign: The foundational model. It encapsulates all campaign-specific data, including:
- characters: A dictionary of Character models, representing player characters. Each Character is a complex model composed of CharacterClass, Race, AbilityScore (for core stats), Item (for inventory and equipment), and Spell (for known spells).
- npcs: A dictionary of NPC models, representing non-player characters. NPCs can be linked to Location models.
- locations: A dictionary of Location models, defining places within the campaign world. Locations can list associated NPCs and connections to other locations.
- quests: A dictionary of Quest models, tracking ongoing and completed missions. Quests can reference NPCs as givers.
- encounters: A dictionary of CombatEncounter models, detailing planned or active combat scenarios. Encounters can be tied to specific locations.
- sessions: A list of SessionNote models, providing summaries and details for each game session played within the campaign.
- game_state: A single GameState model, which captures the dynamic, real-time conditions of the campaign, such as the current location, active quests, and party funds. This model is crucial for understanding the immediate context of the game.
GameState: While part of the Campaign, GameState plays a pivotal role in reflecting the current state of the world. It influences and is influenced by other models:
- current_location can point to a Location model.
- active_quests references Quest titles.
- Changes in Character status (e.g., hit_points_current) or Quest status (active, completed) directly impact the GameState.
AdventureEvent: This model is used to log significant occurrences throughout the campaign. While not directly nested within Campaign (it's stored globally), AdventureEvent instances often reference elements from the Campaign's data, such as characters_involved and location. This provides a historical log for understanding past events and narrative progression.

GameState: While part of the Campaign, GameState plays a pivotal role in reflecting the current state of the world. It influences and is influenced by other models:
- current_location can point to a Location model.
- active_quests references Quest titles.
- Changes in Character status (e.g., hit_points_current) or Quest status (active, completed) directly impact the GameState.
AdventureEvent: This model is used to log significant occurrences throughout the campaign. While not directly nested within Campaign (it's stored globally), AdventureEvent instances often reference elements from the Campaign's data, such as characters_involved and location. This provides a historical log for understanding past events and narrative progression.

🖥️ Development

Development Workflow

If you want to contribute to the project, the setup is slightly different.

Follow steps from the User Installation to clone the repo and set up the virtual environment.
Install in editable mode with development dependencies:
```
uv pip install -e .[dev]
```
This installs the project in a way that your code changes are immediately reflected without needing to reinstall. It also installs tools for testing and linting.

Running Tests

To run the test suite, use the following command:

uv run pytest
