More reliable answers
Use Ask Archivist when you need answers that are consistent, grounded in campaign history, and pulled from more than one obvious source. See also Journals for privacy and access context.
Easier session fixes
Use Archie to fix multiple issues across one session from a single review flow instead of jumping through fragmented cleanup steps. If you are new to the workflow, start in documentation.
Stronger canon faster
Together, these updates make it easier to answer table questions confidently and lock in a cleaner campaign record with less manual work.
Campaign Chatbot
Ask Archivist
- Works from the campaign chatbot and supported Discord flows.
- Retrieves across sessions, transcripts, timeline events, entities, Journals, and Quests.
- Answers harder campaign questions with more reliable evidence.
- Best for recall, prep, dialogue lookup, quest status, and synthesis.
- Stays grounded in campaign history and respects access rules.
Session Review Assistant
Archie
- Lives inside Session Review, where you are already validating output.
- Uses tools to change the current session, review workspace, and transcript context.
- Makes it easier to fix a full session from one consolidated interface.
- Stages corrections for review before they affect canon.
- Best for retcons, find and replace, missing entities or Moments, merges, splits, reclassification, and removals.
What to Know
- Archie is available inside Session Review for cleaning up and approving session output.
- Ask Archivist is available from the campaign chatbot, supported Discord flows, Foundry, and the API. For more on platform support, see integrations.
- Ask Archivist does not edit campaign data. Archie can stage supported Session Review changes, but review-impacting edits still require approval.
- Ask Archivist stays spoiler-safe by respecting journal visibility and sharing rules before journal content can appear in answers. See FAQ and Journals release notes for more.
