Learn about how OOC (out of character) mode works.

Franz has two primary modes.
Default Mode: Franz is focused on crafting the narrative and moving the campaign along. Franz narrates, and then attempts to update game state after narration.
OOC Mode: Franz is focused on retrieving or updating specific game state based on a player command. He is given a specific set of tools to interact with game state, will then pick the necessary tool, execute it, and tell you the result. Use OOC mode when you want Franz to specifically update something.
Triggering OOC Mode
To trigger OOC mode, start your message with βOOC:β or βFranz,β. You will know that Franz used OOC mode if you see OOC next to Franzβs name.

OOC Mode Tools
Below are a list of tools that Franz has access to. We hope this makes it more clear what Franz can / cannot do at the moment.
Franz should automatically pick the right tool with natural language. However if you want to force him to use a tool, just say something like βFranz, use your search_entities_by_name tool and tell me everything about X"
Some tools are not implemented yet. If youβd like us to prioritize implementing a tool, please drop us a note on our feedback board!
