🤖 AI Integration - OpenAI + Game World System

The system includes two working integrations with OpenAI models for natural language game world management:

🔧 Option 1: Direct LangChain Integration (Recommended)

The direct LangChain approach provides the most reliable and stable integration with FastMCP.

Features

• Natural Language Interface: Interact with game worlds using natural language

• Intelligent Tool Usage: OpenAI models automatically choose appropriate game world tools

• Real-time Game State: AI can create worlds, characters, and manage game state

• Interactive Gameplay: Natural conversation flow with structured game mechanics

• Working Implementation: Fully functional integration with error handling

Quick Setup

1. Install dependencies (already included in requirements.txt):

   pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Set your OpenAI API key:

   export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-openai-api-key-here"

3. Run the integration:

   python openai_working_integration.py

Example Commands

• "Create a fantasy world with magic and dragons"

• "Generate a sci-fi world with spaceships and advanced technology"

• "Create a brave knight character named Sir Galen"

• "Move Sir Galen to the dragon's lair"

• "What worlds do we have available?"

🔧 Option 2: LangChain-Based MCP Integration (Alternative)

The LangChain-based MCP integration provides a more compatible approach that works reliably with FastMCP.

Features

• Direct Tool Integration: Custom tools that interface directly with MCP server

• Server Compatibility: Works seamlessly with FastMCP transport protocols

• Interactive CLI: Command-line interface for game world management

• Robust Error Handling: Comprehensive error handling and recovery

• No Protocol Issues: Bypasses mcp_use compatibility problems

Quick Setup

1. Install dependencies (already included in requirements.txt):

   pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Set your OpenAI API key:

   export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-openai-api-key-here"

3. Start the MCP server:

   # Terminal 1 python server.py

4. Run the integration:

   # Terminal 2 python mcp_use_integration.py

Example Commands

• "Create a fantasy world"

• "List all worlds"

• "Create a character"

• "Move a character"

• "Generate a sci-fi world"

• Cosmology: Magic systems, technology levels, calendar systems with consistency checks

• Geography: Continents, regions, key locations with strategic mapping

• Society: Races, factions, social structures with cultural depth

• History: Creation myths, conflicts, key events with narrative timelines

• Systems: Economy, abilities, item classifications with balance frameworks

• Protagonist: Modern RPG character with attributes, skills, inventory, and progression

Enhanced Features

• Validation & Consistency: Cross-component validation ensures world consistency

• Modern RPG Systems: Comprehensive character attributes, skills, and progression

• Advanced Inventory: Item durability, properties, rarity, and crafting systems

• Reputation System: Faction relationships and social dynamics

• Quest System: Dynamic quest tracking and objectives

• Balance Settings: Difficulty levels and game balance parameters
