Collaborate with NPCs AI Studio to turn stories and game scenarios into visible local projects with characters, scene NPC groups, conditional dialogue and plot events. Submit reviewable drafts for existing projects and verify rehearsals. For author-facing AI collaboration, not game models or engine development.
Choose how to use this skill
You do not need every option. Choose the path your AI client supports. The stable page stays the same; versioned files are immutable.
1. Native installer
This listing has no registered native installer command. Use the complete package or source fallback below, depending on what your client supports.
Do not guess an installer command or replace an existing version without reviewing the diff.
2. Complete package recommended
Download the ZIP when available. It includes SKILL.md plus the references, security notes and version metadata.
No complete ProSkills package is published for this listing yet.3. Prompt-only
Copy the prompt above when the agent can read the stable page or when you want to adopt the workflow without installing a skill.
Need only the instruction file?
Download SKILL.md only if your client requires a single file. The complete ZIP is safer for a full installation because it preserves the references and release context.
No path installs or executes anything by itself. Your agent still needs access to the project files. Before updating, compare the installed version and review the diff.

A story deserves more than a wall of text
NPCs AI Studio turns a story outline into a visible authoring workspace. Establish the world's facts, build a cast, place characters in scenes, connect dialogue choices and rehearse what the player encounters. Use it for RPG quests, interactive fiction, narrative prototypes and NPC dialogue planning.
Your own AI can prepare the material through the bilingual Skills, or revise marked dialogue through local MCP. The built-in model connection can also generate focused candidates. Every workflow leaves you in control of the final text.
World brief → Characters → Scenes & appearances → Dialogue & events → Review → Rehearsal → Handoff
| Workspace | What you can create |
|---|---|
| 🌍 World & levels | Shared world facts and writing style, with region details and local story premises kept in each level. |
| 👥 Cast & relationships | Key, supporting and background characters; editable profiles, knowledge, groups, quick notes and relationship connections. |
| 🎬 Scene direction | Scene tracks and time/plot-phase anchors. Place the same character several times without copying their profile. |
| 💬 Dialogue cards | NPC lines, player choices, conditions, effects, branches, shared destinations and endings in one connected canvas. |
| ✦ AI & review | Character, story, dialogue and text candidates; readable review cards, field differences and protected author facts. |
| ▶ Play & delivery | Temporary dialogue play, scene story flows, local records, reusable templates and JSON / Markdown / CSV exports. |
Inside the workbench
01 · Direct the scene
Arrange appearances along scene tracks and story time. NPC groups collect background characters while keeping each member's profile and dialogue independently editable. Muted green groups, plum events and copper character controls make the canvas easier to read.
02 · Write the branch, then try it
Connect dialogue cards and player choices. Put availability conditions beside the response that needs them, and see why a choice is unavailable. In temporary card play, adjust the player's test state and continue from the current card.
03 · Walk through the story
Global rehearsal presents a scene story flow: enter a location, read environmental text, approach an available character and choose a response. Advance story time and inspect the events, character state and available text on the bottom timeline. Source links take you back to the authoring material.
Your AI, working alongside your workbench
Use the AI assistant you already work with. The Skills explain how to translate prose into the tool's world, cast, scenes, relationships, appearances, events and dialogue structures.
| Start a new story | Improve an existing project |
|---|---|
| Give your AI a story or outline. It prepares a storyboard and compiles a separate new project file with basic canvas layouts. | Your AI reads a fresh project snapshot and prepares pending entity drafts. You compare, edit and adopt them in Draft Review. |
| Open the file and adjust the scenes, cast and dialogue. | Existing formal content stays in place until you adopt a candidate. Conflicting revisions require a fresh comparison. |
Add one complete Skill folder to your AI tool's supported Skill location, or provide its SKILL.md and referenced resources as context. Choose the language you prefer; both packs have equivalent capabilities and include a bridge, Schema and runnable examples.
Try a prompt like:
Use the NPCs AI Studio Skill to turn this story into a new local project.
Start with one level, two scenes, a healer and a two-person background NPC group.
Give each NPC their own dialogue. Add a treatment choice gated by player injury.
Validate the project and rehearse both injured and healthy paths.
Explain your assumptions and tell me where to open the result.
An AI tool with local execution can use the bridge to validate, import and submit drafts. A cloud chat without access to your computer can prepare files for handoff; it cannot directly operate your local workbench. The bridge itself makes no model requests and does not need a platform API key. Supported collaboration Windows builds offer NPCsAIStudio.exe --skill-bridge; the standalone helper uses Python 3.10+.
Revise dialogue with your local Codex or Claude Code
Mark the dialogue in the editor, then ask your own agent to read the task. Local MCP provides the exact card IDs, saved text, world brief and relevant character/scene context. You can revise scattered cards together without copying passages, JSON or screenshots between tools.
Connect once
Open a saved project and choose Agent collaboration → Connect Codex / Claude. Merge the generated configuration into your client's MCP settings, keeping existing connections. The editor supplies the actual Python/executable path, service URL and project ID.
