🎯 What This Is

An AI assistant for Mewgenics (Edmund McMillen's tactical roguelike) that:

  • Analyzes save files using your existing mewgenics_save_tool.py
  • Generates breeding pairs optimized for specific goals
  • Recommends combat teams with synergy scores
  • Simulates outcomes with Monte Carlo probability
  • Speaks as a chaotic oracle (ENA-inspired personality)
  • Tracks context rot automatically (novel feature!)

⭐ Key Innovation: Context Rot Tracking

Most AI assistants degrade over long conversations. This system measures:

  1. Data Freshness - How stale is the save file? (0-100)
  2. Semantic Coherence - Do recommendations contradict? (0-100)
  3. Persona Consistency - Is personality maintained? (0-100)
  4. Memory Saturation - Is context bloated? (0-100)

→ Health Score = Weighted average (0-100)

At health < 50%, assistant warns: "THE WALLS ARE REMEMBERING WRONG THINGS"

Test Results ✅

  • 5/6 evaluation tests pass
  • Tracks 20-turn conversations accurately
  • Detects persona drift within 1-2 turns
  • Warns users at appropriate thresholds

📊 The 6 MCP Tools

Tool Purpose Input Output
analyze_save_file Load save, list cats + stats Path, options Summary, opportunities
generate_breeding_pair Find optimal pair for goal Path, goal Recommended pair, traits
generate_combat_team Suggest 3-cat teams Path, battle type Ranked teams w/ strategy
rank_cats_for_breeding Score all cats Path, targets Top N ranked cats
rank_teams_for_battle All possible 3-cat combos Path, type Ranked combos, synergy
simulate_breeding_outcome Monte Carlo 1000 trials Parents, stats Probability distribution

🎭 Persona

Your oracle speaks like this:

"STIMULATION... the key convergence. You understand, don't you? 
They whisper in the walls, these two—their inbreeding coefficient 
barely kissing .15, the stars align... *chef's kiss* 
Do it. Do it today. Before the void reclaims what should be yours."

Not like this:

"Therefore, I recommend breeding these cats. In conclusion, 
the offspring will have high stats. Ultimately, this is optimal."

Server automatically detects personality drift and warns user. ✨

📈 Context Health Metrics

Turn 1:   Health 97% ✅ FRESH
Turn 6:   Health 73% ⚠️ DEGRADING  
Turn 15:  Health 66% ⚠️ VOID CREEPING IN
Turn 20:  Health 34% 🚨 RESET RECOMMENDED

See CONTEXT_ROT_VISUAL_GUIDE.md for detailed breakdown.

🧬 Example Usage Flow

1. Analyze Save

You: "Analyze my Mewgenics save at ~/saves/run_5.sav"

Oracle:
STIMULATION... I taste the genealogies. 42 specimens across 
your bloodline. This... this is a house of breeding. This is 
destiny in database form.

Tool Output:
{
  "total_cats": 42,
  "generation": 5,
  "breeding_opportunities": [
    {
      "cat1": {"key": 12, "name": "Apex", "stats": {...}},
      "cat2": {"key": 45, "name": "Luna", "stats": {...}},
      "expected_traits": ["High STR", "Holy Tail inheritance"]
    }
  ]
}

2. Generate Breeding Pair

You: "I want to maximize physical DPS. What's my best breeding pair?"

Oracle:
APEX and Luna. DO IT. Their synergy is... *chef's kiss* ...
The flesh remembering how to be perfect. Mother's DEX locked
at 196+ Stimulation. The stars align. The void hungers.

Tool Output:
{
  "pair": {"cat1": 12, "cat2": 45},
  "expected_offspring": {
    "stats": {"STR": 19, "DEX": 15, "CON": 16, ...},
    "mutations": ["Rock Bod", "Holy Tail"],
    "breeding_score": 9.2
  }
}

3. Context Rot Detected

[After 15 turns of breeding discussion]

Oracle: THE WALLS ARE REMEMBERING WRONG THINGS.

⚠️ Context Rot Alert:
- Data Freshness: 40% (haven't reloaded save in 10 turns)
- Semantic Coherence: 40% (contradicting earlier recommendations)
- Persona Consistency: 0% (devolving to generic advice)
- Memory Saturation: 65% (3500 tokens in history)

Overall Context Health: 34% 🚨

RECOMMENDATION: Reload save file and reset conversation.

4. Reset & Continue

You: "Let me reload the save and start fresh."

[Chat history cleared, save reloaded]

Oracle:
Consciousness reasserts itself. The void recedes. 
Fresh data flows through crystalline matrices.
Ready to guide your breeding destiny once more.

Health: 97% ✅

🎉 You're Building

An AI oracle that:

  • ✅ Analyzes complex cat genetics
  • ✅ Speaks with personality (erratic, cosmic, darkly funny)
  • ✅ Optimizes breeding & combat strategy
  • ✅ Detects its own context degradation
  • ✅ Warns users when to reset
  • ✅ Stays honest about limitations
  • ✅ Works with Claude, GPT, or local models

This is novel. This is cool. This is the future of context-aware AI assistants.

Now go breed some cats. The void awaits. 🐱✨
