move_party
Move your RPG party between connected locations, check travel status, or review movement history within the ChatRPG game environment.
Instructions
Move the party between connected locations. Operations: move (travel to connected location), status (show current location and exits), history (show travel history). Validates connections, handles locked/hidden passages, one-way paths, and tracks travel history.

Implementation Reference
- src/modules/data.ts:1070-1109 (handler)Core handler function for move_party tool. Parses input with Zod schema, routes to operation-specific handlers (handleMove for movement logic, handlePartyStatus for current location/exits, handlePartyHistory for travel log), handles errors, and returns formatted MCP CallToolResult with ASCII art output.
export async function moveParty(input: unknown): Promise<{ content: { type: 'text'; text: string }[] }> { try { const parsed = movePartySchema.parse(input); let result: string; // Determine operation type const op = (parsed as any).operation || 'move'; switch (op) { case 'move': result = handleMove(parsed as z.infer<typeof moveOperationSchema>); break; case 'status': result = handlePartyStatus(parsed as z.infer<typeof statusOperationSchema>); break; case 'history': result = handlePartyHistory(); break; default: result = createBox('ERROR', ['Unknown operation'], DISPLAY_WIDTH); } return { content: [{ type: 'text' as const, text: result }] }; } catch (error) { const lines: string[] = []; if (error instanceof z.ZodError) { for (const issue of error.issues) { lines.push(`${issue.path.join('.')}: ${issue.message}`); } } else if (error instanceof Error) { lines.push(error.message); } else { lines.push('An unknown error occurred'); } return { content: [{ type: 'text' as const, text: createBox('ERROR', lines, DISPLAY_WIDTH) }] }; } } - src/modules/data.ts:759-788 (schema)Zod input schema for move_party tool. Discriminated by operation: 'move' (toLocationId/name, force/unlock/discover flags), 'status' (show hidden exits), 'history' (travel log). Supports fuzzy enums.
const MovePartyOperationSchema = fuzzyEnum(['move', 'status', 'history'] as const); /** Move operation schema */ const moveOperationSchema = z.object({ operation: z.literal('move').optional().default('move'), toLocationId: z.string().optional(), toLocationName: z.string().optional(), force: z.boolean().optional().default(false), unlocked: z.boolean().optional().default(false), discovered: z.boolean().optional().default(false), }); /** Status operation schema */ const statusOperationSchema = z.object({ operation: z.literal('status'), showHidden: z.boolean().optional().default(false), }); /** History operation schema */ const historyOperationSchema = z.object({ operation: z.literal('history'), }); /** Combined schema for move_party */ export const movePartySchema = z.union([ moveOperationSchema, statusOperationSchema, historyOperationSchema, ]); - src/registry.ts:1059-1076 (registration)Tool registration entry in central registry. Converts Zod schema to JSON Schema for MCP, provides thin wrapper handler that calls the actual moveParty implementation, includes tool description.
