## Example Usage

Once configured, you can use Claude to interact with your RPG Maker MZ project:

```

Claude will use the `get_actors` tool to retrieve and display all actors.

### Example 2: Update an Actor

```
Update actor 1's name to "Hero" and initial level to 5
```

Claude will use the `update_actor` tool with the appropriate parameters.

### Example 3: Create a New Item

```
Create a new item called "Health Potion" that restores 50 HP
```

Claude will help you create the item with the proper structure.

### Example 4: Search Map Events

```
Find all events on map 1 that contain "treasure" in their name
```

Claude will use the `search_map_events` tool to find matching events.

### Example 5: Update Game Settings

```
Change the game title to "My Epic Adventure"
```

Claude will use the `update_game_title` tool to update the system data.

### Example 6: Create a Custom Skill

```
Create a fire magic skill called "Fireball" that costs 15 MP,
targets a single enemy, and deals "a.mat * 4 - b.mdf * 2" damage
```

Claude will use the `create_damage_skill` tool to create the skill.

### Example 7: Create a Healing Skill

```
Create a group healing spell called "Mass Heal" that costs 30 MP,
targets all allies, and heals "a.mat * 3 + 100" HP

## Safety and Best Practices

1. **Backup Your Project**: Always backup your RPG Maker MZ project before making changes
2. **Close RPG Maker MZ Editor**: Close the RPG Maker MZ editor when using this server to avoid conflicts
3. **Validate Changes**: Test your game after making changes to ensure everything works correctly
4. **Version Control**: Use git or another version control system for your project

## Limitations

- This server modifies JSON files directly. Make sure the RPG Maker MZ editor is closed when using it
- Some advanced features may require manual editing in the RPG Maker MZ editor
- Plugin-specific data structures may not be fully supported

## Troubleshooting

### "Invalid RPG Maker MZ project path"

Make sure the `RPGMAKER_PROJECT_PATH` environment variable points to a valid RPG Maker MZ project directory containing:
- `game.rmmzproject` file
- `data/` directory with `System.json`

### Changes Not Appearing

1. Make sure the RPG Maker MZ editor is closed
2. Verify the project path is correct
3. Check that the JSON files have write permissions

### Tool Not Found

Restart Claude Desktop after updating the configuration file.
