Archivist AI Agent Examples

Build AI agents powered by your TTRPG campaign data. This repository contains working examples, configuration files, and reference documentation for integrating Archivist AI with AI assistants and agent frameworks.

Archivist AI is a TTRPG campaign memory platform for game masters and players. It turns Discord sessions, uploaded audio, transcripts, and play-by-post content into structured campaign history -- characters, locations, factions, items, quests, session timelines, and more -- that can be searched, queried, and used by AI agents.

Quick Start

Connect via MCP (Model Context Protocol)

The Archivist MCP server gives AI assistants direct, read-only access to your campaign data. No SDK or API key wrangling required -- just point your client at the server.

MCP Server URL: https://mcp.myarchivist.ai/mcp Transport: Streamable HTTP Authentication: OAuth 2.0 (authorization code + PKCE) or Bearer token
