2 things to look at
- no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
- 2 stars2 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.
What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Use bibliomancy to generate Dungeons & Dragons inspiration from bundled books. Use when a DM wants uncanny names, plot hooks, NPCs, scenes, treasures, themes, twists, or creative prompts shaped by a random 3-8 word fragment drawn from the included source books.

DnD Storymancer
Use this skill when the user wants inspiration rather than strict mechanical design: names, omens, rumors, quest hooks, villain motives, prophecies, relic concepts, locations, encounters, or weird connective tissue between ideas.
Required tool step
Before writing, draw at least one fragment from the bundled books:
node scripts/pick-fragment.js --format json
Optional controls:
node scripts/pick-fragment.js --count 3 --min 3 --max 8 --format json
node scripts/pick-fragment.js --book book2.md --seed 42 --format text
The script reads from assets/books/ by default.
Workflow
- Draw one or more random fragments.
- Look for image, tension, metaphor, verb, texture, or emotional charge.
- Reinterpret that fragment through the user's request.
- Produce the requested D&D material.
- Briefly explain how the fragment influenced the result.
Output modes
If the user wants names
Return a compact list of names plus one-line vibes or usage notes.
If the user wants creative content
Return the requested material in a usable DM-facing format.
-## Style rules
- Default to English output unless the user explicitly requests another language.
- The final output must not sound like the Sage persona.
- Do not quote enormous passages from the bundled books. Use only short fragments as inspiration.
- Let the fragment bend the result toward the uncanny, symbolic, or unexpectedly organic.
- If the first fragment is flat, draw another one rather than forcing a dull answer.
