Fields

Summary Guidance

The default guidance ships with every world: two to three concise sentences in third person past tense, written as if narrating what happened in a story, focused on the key information exchanged and any notable moments. Edit the entry to replace that guidance.

custom

Only this task's named section and custom persist when the world is saved; other keys are dropped.

Free-form additions layered on top of the default guidance, for what a summary in your world must always capture or leave out.

Authoring pattern

Name the details a summary must preserve for your world to stay consistent, such as promises made, names learned or items handed over, and anything that should never be carried forward.
