Zork Interactive Fiction Skill

Play the classic text adventure Zork I via dfrotz, with persistent save state and optional Obsidian integration for capturing learnings.

Quick Reference

Command What it does
/zork look Look around current room
/zork go north Move north (or any direction)
/zork take lamp Pick up an item
/zork inventory Check what you're carrying
/zork Show current status (look + inventory)
/zork new Start a fresh game
/zork setup Configure Obsidian vault for sync

How to Play

Execute a single command:

bash scripts/play.sh "go north"

Check current status:

bash scripts/status.sh

Start a new game:

bash scripts/new.sh

Configure Obsidian sync:

bash scripts/setup.sh /path/to/your/vault

Game State

  • Save file: state/claude.sav.qzl - automatically saved after each command
  • Transcript: Append-only log of all commands and responses
  • Learnings: Your observations about the game (update with /zork reflect)

Obsidian Integration

If configured, transcript and learnings sync to your Obsidian vault as:

  • Claude Plays Zork Transcript.md
  • Claude Plays Zork Learnings.md

Run bash scripts/setup.sh to see current config or set a vault path.

Tips

  • Classic text adventure verbs: look, examine, take, drop, open, close, go, inventory
  • Directions: north, south, east, west, up, down, ne, nw, se, sw
  • You can abbreviate: n for north, i for inventory, l for look
  • Save happens automatically after each command

Purpose

This skill helps Claude build experiential intuition about text adventures and parser conventions, informing the design of AI companions in Emergent Quest.
