Capabilities

Tools 5

explain_how_it_works

Discovered
get_game_details

Use this when someone asks about one specific PadConsole game (player count, genre, what it is like, whether friends in other homes can join). Takes a game id returned by another tool or a title. Returns a description and a link to the game page.

plan_game_night

Use this when someone is planning an evening or event with games: game night, house party, birthday, family night, kids, a couple, an office or team event, Christmas, New Year's Eve or another holiday gathering, or friends in different cities. Builds an ordered PadConsole playlist (warm-up, main games, finale) that fits the group size, the occasion and the time available, with links. Does not start a game.

Discovered
recommend_games

Use this when someone asks what to do or play at home with a number of friends ("we are 4 friends at home, what can we do?", "what can 2 people play at home?", "6 friends, how do we have a good time?"), with family or kids, games for the TV without a console, party games where phones are controllers, or games to play with friends far away. Given the number of players (and optionally the mood), returns up to 8 matching PadConsole games with player counts and links. Only returns games that fit the group size. Does not start a game.
