description	Apply a D&D 5e short rest to the active character — optionally spend hit dice to heal, recharge short-rest abilities (Warlock spell slots, Fighter Action Surge / Second Wind, Monk ki, Channel Divinity, etc.). Trigger when the player rests for 1 hour (PHB) or whatever the campaign's resting house rule specifies.

Short Rest

Apply a short rest per the campaign's resting house rule (default PHB: 1 hour).

0. Prerequisites

mise --version, mise run roll -- 1d20.
Determine campaign slug + active character.

1. Validate

Read campaign.md for the resting house rule. Confirm the fiction supports it (relative safety, time available, no immediate threats).

Default rule durations:

PHB: 1 hour.
Gritty realism: 8 hours.
Heroic: 5 minutes.

2. Spend Hit Dice (Optional)

Ask the player how many hit dice to spend (0 to current pool size).

For each die:

mise run roll -- 1d<hit-die> — show the result.
HP regained for that die = roll + CON modifier.

Sum the regained HP and apply, capped at max HP. Decrement the hit-dice pool by the number spent. Hit dice spent on a short rest are not refunded — they only refill on long rest.

3. Recharge Short-Rest Abilities

Reset features that recharge on a short rest:

Warlock spell slots → all (Pact Magic).
Fighter Action Surge (1 use at L2; 2 at L17). Second Wind (1 use).
Monk ki points → all.
Channel Divinity (Cleric: 1/SR at L2, 2 at L6, 3 at L18; Paladin: 1/SR at L3).
Any class/feature explicitly marked "1/short rest" or "regains on a short or long rest".

Skip features the active character doesn't have at their current level.

Note: Wizard Arcane Recovery is once per long rest, not short — but the player may invoke it during a short rest if unused this day.

4. Advance In-Game Time

Update state.md.in_game_date by the rest duration.

5. Persist

Save the character sheet and state.md. If a session is open, append a beat to sessions/<NNN>.md.

Every file written must follow the File Conventions in AGENTS.md (final newline, LF, UTF-8, no trailing whitespace).

6. Confirm

Tight summary: hit dice spent and HP healed, short-rest abilities reset, time advanced.
