Documentation

README

Excerpt

Dialogue systems

Model conversations as a graph: nodes hold lines, choices branch the flow, conditions gate options, and variables remember what the player did. The first real decision is build vs. buy — adopt a proven authoring tool (Ink or Yarn Spinner) or write a small data-driven runner. This skill owns both Ink and Yarn; the visual-novel and rpg genres consume it.

When to use

Use to design branching conversations, choice menus, or narrative state (flags, relationship values) that affect later dialogue.
Use to decide between Ink, Yarn Spinner, and a custom JSON/resource format.
Use to wire a dialogue script into your game loop (advance line, present choices, run commands, resolve variables).

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
