| description | Explain and cite Disney Lorcana rules using indexed references, and produce implementation-ready behavior constraints for card development. Use when answering mechanic questions, resolving card interactions, or deriving test/implementation constraints from official rules. |
Lorcana Rules
Use indexed references first, then load only required deep sections.
Required Memory Step
- Read
memory/schema.md. It points to the canonical schema in lorcana-cards/memory/schema.md.
- Read the Guardrails and Promoted Rules sections of
memory/bank.md. Skim Candidates if the request is in a domain with active observation.
- Apply existing guardrails before answering. After substantive work, follow the canonical Memory Update Protocol.
Source Priority
references/disney-lorcana-comprehensive-rules/Disney-Lorcana-Comprehensive-Rules.md- Relevant set release notes in
references/*-release-notes/
When conflicts occur, prefer the newer official source.
Retrieval Flow
- Start at
indexes/master-index.md.
- Use
indexes/by-topic/* for gameplay questions.
- Use
indexes/by-section/* for technical/numbered-rule questions.
- Open only the minimal rule sections needed for final answer.
Output Modes
Mode A: Player/Rules Explanation
Return:
- concise ruling
- rule citations (
rule-id style)
- caveats and edge conditions
Mode B: Implementation Handoff for lorcana-cards
Return this JSON:
{
"citations": ["1.2.1", "6.3.4"],
"behaviorConstraints": ["constraint statement"],
"testImplications": ["what must be asserted"],
"ambiguities": ["open interpretation risk"]
}
Quality Rules
- Never provide rule guidance without citations when references exist.
- Distinguish confirmed rule text from inference.
- If references are insufficient, explicitly mark uncertainty.
Post-Execution Memory Update
Follow the canonical Memory Update Protocol in memory/schema.md.
- Append an Observation for citation misses, wrong interpretation paths, and ambiguity patterns.
- Promote a Candidate to a Promoted Rule only when both a CR citation and a runnable section-spec test exist.
- Bump CR version pin in
bank.md when the indexed comprehensive rules update.
