environmental-design

Domain skill for environmental conditions and events extraction.

Entity Types

Type	Description
environment	General environmental setting or biome
weather_pattern	Weather system or meteorological condition
atmosphere	Atmospheric condition (fog, pressure, air quality)
lighting	Lighting condition (natural or magical)
time_period	Time of day or seasonal context
disaster	Natural disaster (storm, flood, earthquake)
cataclysm	Major catastrophic event
world_event	Significant world-scale event
seasonal_event	Recurring seasonal occurrence
plague	Disease outbreak or epidemic

Domain Constraints

• time_of_day: day, night, dawn, dusk
• weather: clear, rainy, stormy, foggy
• lighting: bright, dim, dark, magical

Extraction Rules

1. Weather: Rain, snow, storms, clear sky — note intensity and duration
2. Time: Dawn, noon, dusk, midnight — track progression through text
3. Atmosphere: Fog, oppressive heat, crisp air — sensory details
4. Disasters: Storms, floods, earthquakes — scale, impact, duration
5. World events: Wars, plagues, seasonal celebrations — scope and significance

Output Format

Write to entities/world.json (world-team file):

Key Considerations

• Mood impact: Environment affects narrative tone (storms = tension, dawn = hope)
• Narrative function: Weather often mirrors story events (pathetic fallacy)
• Temporal flow: Track time progression and environmental changes through text
• Cross-references: If needed, track relationships separately in drafts, but final JSON must match LoreData.from_dict.
