Changelog

October 13, 2026

Long campaigns now show everything they hold, campaign export works for every sign-in, and the live editor protects your text when several people edit the same page.

• added A Discord button at the top of the app opens the Grimoire community server
• fixed The player view shows every session recap, not just the first 50, and "Previously" is always your newest session
• fixed Campaign export works for accounts that sign in with Google or Discord
• fixed Party lists, session pickers and thread timelines show everything in long campaigns
• fixed Upload limits match your plan everywhere you upload (Free 1 MB, Pro 20 MB, Team 50 MB), and players no longer get image or media blocks in the wiki
• changed When two people edit the same wiki block, a save that would overwrite newer text is held and you are told, instead of silently replacing it
• changed When the Timeline graph has to trim, it keeps your newest sessions, and the Political and Timeline graphs say when a very large campaign is only partly shown (up to 500 of each type)
• changed Your AI can set a session prep or quest status, for example moving a prep to Ready. An invalid status is refused with the valid options instead of being ignored
• changed On a campaign whose GM is on the Free plan, players see their My Character custom fields read-only
• fixed Many smaller fixes to the live editor, uploads, dialogs and graphs

October 6, 2026

A wiki page or block marked Party Knowledge is now visible to every player in your campaign, the same audience as Common Knowledge, and it stays a separate marker so you can still see at a glance what the party has learned. Entries with Status Hidden now stay away from your players the way Archived ones do, and a few gaps where players could reach wiki content they could not read are closed.

• changed Party Knowledge in the wiki reaches every player in the campaign, as it always has on NPCs, locations and every other entry. GM Secret is unchanged
• changed Status Hidden keeps an entry out of the player portal and your players' connections, like Archived
• changed Export without GM Secrets now contains exactly what your players can see
• security Players can no longer edit, move, copy or reorder wiki blocks they cannot read, or change who can read a page

October 6, 2026

A security release. Signing out now ends that session on the server, a new button signs you out of every other browser, and resetting your password also disconnects the AI apps connected to your campaigns. A connection you approve as read-only now really is read-only. If you use a command-line Grimoire MCP token, it may need regenerating: see below.

• added Settings has a working "Sign out of all other devices" button. It signs you out of Grimoire in every other browser and keeps you signed in here. Apps you connected to a campaign stay connected
• changed Signing out ends that session on the server at once, and the Sign Out button on the website now signs you out of the app too
• changed A sign-in lasts at most 30 days, however often you use it. After that you sign in again
• changed Resetting your password also disconnects every AI app connected to your campaigns. Reconnect them after the reset
• changed The screen where you approve an AI app shows where it sends access, and marks any app other than Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor as an unverified app
• changed A connection you approved as read-only can no longer change your campaign
• changed Command-line Grimoire MCP tokens are longer and are no longer stored in a form that could be rebuilt. Tokens made before this release stopped working: open the campaign's MCP settings, press Regenerate and paste the new token where you use it
• removed Player tokens for the command-line setup are no longer accepted. A player connects their own AI from the player portal once you turn on player AI access
• fixed A password over 72 bytes gets a clear message instead of a server error
• fixed A large map upload on a slow connection no longer fails with a false "File too large" message
• security Many smaller fixes to sign-in, uploads, the live editor and the demo, including rate limits that forged headers can no longer dodge

September 29, 2026

Your players can keep their own character sheets now. Assign a player to a character with the new Played by field, and that player gets a My Character page in the player portal where they update the parts of the sheet that are theirs: backstory, goals, level, gear and the rest. Your GM Secret fields never appear there, and nothing else in your world becomes editable. Characters also picked up an Equipment field for everyday gear, the special items they hold now show on their sheet, and custom fields gained a Shown to players setting so a homebrew field your table needs can reach your players too.

• added Played by on player characters: pick one of the players who joined your campaign, when you create the character or any time later. The members list in Settings shows who plays whom
• added My Character in the player portal. The assigned player can read and edit their character under every portal setting, even when the rest of the world is wiki only: name, description, race, class, level, alignment, background, personality, goals, backstory, equipment and any custom fields you show them. A player with more than one character sees them all
• added An Equipment field on player characters for everyday gear, written freely
• added Key items reach your players. A character lists the special items it holds, whether you set the item's PC Owner or picked it under Key Items, and an item shows which characters hold it. A GM Secret item never appears
• added Custom fields have a Shown to players setting beside GM Secret. Every field stays with you until you choose, and on a player character the assigned player can fill in the fields you show them
• changed The item picker on the character form is now called Key Items, for the tracked items in your item database. Everyday gear goes in the new Equipment field
• changed Players no longer see which NPC owns an item or a vehicle. A character or faction owner still shows
• changed Archived characters stay on their player's My Character page as a read-only record
• changed Removing a player from your campaign unassigns their characters, so inviting them back later does not quietly restore their edit access
• changed Player tokens for Grimoire MCP are read-only. A player's connection can read their own characters and the items those characters hold, and cannot change anything in your campaign
• changed A wiki block that links to a page a player cannot open is now hidden from that player, the same way a block that mentions a GM Secret entry already was. That includes links to pages in the trash
• changed Players cannot link to, copy or turn into text a wiki page they cannot read. When a player removes a link to such a page, only the link goes and the page stays where it is, so their delete now asks "Remove this link?"
• fixed An entry can sit on more than one custom graph. Adding one that was already on another custom graph used to fail
• security Every request now checks that the records, links and pages it touches belong to the campaign it was made in

September 23, 2026

The old tutorial walked you through a script in an overlay and then left. It did not know what you had actually built, and it said nothing about the part of Grimoire that surprises people most: the graphs draw themselves from the fields you fill in. It is gone. A new campaign now opens with a short Getting started checklist on Campaign Home that ticks itself off as you build, a one-time note after each of those steps explains what just happened on its own, and every graph can now tell you exactly how it is built. The demo world got a guided tour of its own, and the Help panel was rewritten to match the app as it is today.

• added A Getting started checklist on Campaign Home for new campaigns: seven steps, from your first NPC to inviting your players. Each one ticks itself when you actually do it, anywhere in the app, so there is nothing to mark done by hand. Dismiss it whenever you like and bring it back from Help
• added A short note the first time one of those steps happens, explaining what Grimoire did on its own as a result: setting an NPC's faction puts them on the Political Web, nesting a place builds Geography, a recap lands on the Timeline, and a wiki mention shows up on the record under "Mentioned in". Each note appears once, and most link straight to the graph they describe
• added A "How this graph is built" explainer on the Political Web, the Timeline, Geography, World Foundations, custom graphs and the Pantheon. It lists which fields fill the graph in automatically and what you add by hand, so a missing line or an unplaced entry is never a mystery
• added The demo world has a guided tour: eight stops through a finished campaign, from a record and its links to the Political Web, the Timeline, Geography, the wiki and what players see. A "Take me there" button opens each stop, and the tour docks to the side, minimizes, and reopens from the Tour button on the demo banner
• changed The Help panel was rewritten for the app as it is today, with a Getting started entry that reopens the checklist and, in the demo, a way back into the tour
• removed The step-by-step tutorial overlay is gone, along with its tutorial tracks in Help. It described screens that have since changed, and the checklist and notes replace it
• changed Hints you dismiss are now remembered in the browser you dismissed them in, rather than on your account
• fixed Help on a wiki page, a notebook, the party wiki or a player portal subpage now shows that section's help instead of the general panel
• fixed The peek drawer lists the wiki pages that mention an entry under "Mentioned in", matching the player portal. It used to read "Mentions", which sounded like the opposite
• fixed The Pantheon toolbar wraps on phones instead of squeezing its buttons off the edge of the screen

September 21, 2026

A handful of controls looked like they worked and did not. Assigning an Era / Period to a Lore entry appeared to stick until you reopened it. The Knowledge Graph Inclusion buttons changed nothing at all. Several kinds of link could be written through Grimoire MCP but were never shown anywhere in the app. All of that is fixed, and those links are now fields you can set yourself: an organization can sit under another one, an event can be caused by an earlier one, and characters can carry an inventory. Forms also got more forgiving. Name is now the only field any entry needs, so you can create something now and fill it in later.

• fixed Era / Period on a Lore entry now saves. It looked assigned, and the Timeline even grouped by it, but it was never stored, so reopening the entry showed the picker empty
• fixed The Knowledge Graph Inclusion control now does something. It had been saving nothing for every kind of entry. It is now a single "Exclude from knowledge graphs" checkbox, which keeps an entry off every graph even when something else links to it
• added Organizations can sit under other organizations. Factions have a Parent Organizations field, so a county government can answer to a ducal government and a regional church to the larger church. An organization can answer to more than one parent
• added New links you can set on an entry: Caused By on Lore, Related Lore on Items and Mechanics, Related Items on Quests, Inventory on Player Characters, Player Characters Met on NPCs, and Creatures to Prep and Quests to Prep on Session Prep
• added Every one of those links is also a column in the table view, hidden by default, so you can set them inline without opening the entry
• fixed Links written through Grimoire MCP now show up in the app. Nine kinds of link could be created by an AI client but were displayed nowhere, so they looked like they had never been saved
• changed Hierarchies cannot loop. An NPC cannot report to itself or to someone who already reports to them, an organization cannot sit under one of its own subdivisions, and a Lore entry cannot be its own cause. Trying it explains why and leaves your data unchanged, and an entry already caught in a loop can still be edited so you can untangle it
• changed Name is the only field any entry requires. Player Name and Class & Level on Player Characters, Rules Text on Mechanics, Status on Quests and Session Number on Sessions are all optional now, so you can create an entry first and fill it in later, one field at a time
• fixed A form that cannot save now tells you why. The Save button used to grey out silently when a required field was empty, including one tucked away in a collapsed section. Now it stays clickable and shows the problem next to the field
• fixed A refused save no longer blames your internet connection. The edit panel said "Check your connection" for every failure, even when the real reason, shown alongside it, was something like a hierarchy loop
• fixed The Vehicles table now has every field the vehicle form does: passenger and cargo capacity, armor, the owning NPC, character or faction, current location and GM secrets
• changed Archived, draft and hidden entries no longer appear on custom entity graphs, the same as on every other graph. They used to stay on a custom graph after you archived them
• security A custom entity graph now checks every entry's status and visibility before drawing it, instead of treating an entry it could not look up as common knowledge. That matters once custom graphs can be shared with players
• security A Lore entry can no longer be linked to an era that belongs to a different campaign

September 19, 2026

Setting a date on a Lore entry or a session did not work. The picker offered you a year, and saving it failed outright. That is fixed, along with the quieter problem underneath it: a date entered in the Lore table could be stored as the wrong year without telling you. Year-only dates, year zero and years before your epoch all save now and sort in the right order on the Timeline. Eras picked up the other half of the same problem: an era with a known end but no known beginning no longer needs you to invent a first year.

• fixed Dates save again on Lore entries and sessions. Every in-game date, at every precision, was failing with "Invalid request body" when saved from the edit form, because the date picker and the server disagreed about what a date looks like
• fixed Years 0 to 99 are stored as written. A date set in the Lore table was quietly converted through a real-world calendar, so Year 78 was saved as 1978 and Year 0 as 1900. If you have entries showing dates in the 1900s that you did not enter, that was the cause, and they are worth a check because existing values do not correct themselves
• fixed Reopening a record shows the date you set instead of an empty picker
• fixed The time between two in-game session dates is calculated correctly. A span of year-only dates now reads as a number of years rather than a nonsensical day count
• added Year-only dates are a first-class option, so an event you only know the year of no longer needs a made-up month and day
• added Year zero and negative years work end to end, which is what an epoch-based setting needs: enter 602 years before your founding event as Year -602 and it sorts before Year 0, which sorts before Year 78
• added An era can have no known beginning: leave Start Year blank and it runs indefinitely into the past, the mirror of leaving End Year blank for an era that is still running. It reads as "Unbounded to Year 0" and sorts ahead of every dated era
• fixed An era's End Year can be cleared again. Once a year had been set, there was no way to empty it and mark the era ongoing
• changed The Timeline orders dates by month and day within a year, not just by year, so two events in the same year sit in the order they happened
• changed Dates you typed by hand or wrote through Grimoire MCP are left exactly as they are. Opening and saving a record no longer rewrites a date field it cannot read, so notation like "602 BF" survives untouched
• changed In-game dates are stored as plain year, month and day values rather than as real-world calendar dates, so a future in-world calendar can reinterpret what you have already entered instead of asking you to re-enter it

September 17, 2026

The player portal stopped being a wiki with a side door and became a place your table actually wants to open. Players get a grouped sidebar, category pages, a quest board, a lore timeline and a Previously landing that opens on the last session. The revealed world widened, so what the party has met is what the party can read. Relationships learned a GM Secret level of their own, the knowledge graphs learned a read-only player view you switch on per graph, and the Campaign Bible and World Foundations can now be shared with players and with their AI assistants. Next up: custom entity graphs for players, and campaign-wide search across the portal.

• added The player portal has a real shell: a grouped sidebar with honest counts and collapsible groups, a genre badge, search, and category pages that show cards with a type line and tags instead of a bare list
• added A quest board and a lore timeline for players, so the party can see what they are chasing and what they have lived through without asking you to read it out
• added A Previously landing that opens on the latest session, with a quest tracker, a session strip and the party alongside it
• added A portal-safe peek drawer: wiki mentions, cards and table rows open the entity in place, showing only what that player is allowed to see
• added A read-only table view in the portal for players who would rather scan a list than a wall of cards, plus prev and next links inside a codex entry
• added Preview as player opens the real portal as your players see it, rather than a mock of it, so you can check what you have shared before your table does
• changed Canon sessions, World Rules and Mechanics that are not GM Secret, factions the party has met through a recap or a member, and vehicles with a known owner now appear in the revealed world
• changed Codex entries in the portal show a much wider field set, including quest objectives and session key events, with related entity names resolved behind the same visibility filter that decides whether the entry appears at all
• changed Session recaps now surface the creatures and player characters who were on stage, not only the NPCs
• changed The Home subtree collapses in both wiki sidebars, and portal wiki groups collapse too, so a deep wiki stops pushing everything else off the screen
• added Relationships carry their own GM Secret level: a tie can be marked secret from entity forms, from a graph edge dialog and through Grimoire MCP, and a secret tie never reaches a player reader even when both ends are visible
• added A GM can see at a glance which ties players cannot: a hidden tie draws as a short dash on your graphs, with a count of every tie hidden by your own mark or by an end the party has not met
• added Knowledge graphs open for players, one graph at a time: per-graph sharing switches in campaign settings turn on a read-only Political Web, Timeline or Geography for the portal, and each one lists exactly what a player would see
• added The player Timeline is the Braid without threads, arcs or observations, and the player Geography draws nested places with no maps or pins, so neither view leaks a plan you have not told them about
• added Player characters now appear in the political projection, so a player opening the Political Web finds the party in it, and Grimoire MCP builds player graphs from the same builders the app uses
• added The Pantheon can join the Political Web behind a GM toggle, and a tie to a deity can be marked GM Secret like any other
• changed World Foundations nodes are GM Secret by default and existing nodes were migrated, so nothing you wrote as grounding for yourself becomes player-facing by accident
• added The Foundations editor shows visibility counts, a shareable filter and bulk visibility, so marking a batch of nodes player-safe is one pass instead of one node at a time
• added You can share the Campaign Bible and World Foundations with your players: the Bible becomes a page in their portal showing the blocks you marked Common Knowledge, and Foundations grounds a player's AI assistant without giving them a graph. Neither switch can be turned on until there is player-safe content behind it
• added Grimoire MCP: a player connection reads the shared Campaign Bible and World Foundations through get_campaign_bible, get_constitution and get_knowledge_graph, scoped on the server to what the GM shared
• added A wiki block that mentions a GM Secret or otherwise hidden entity now resolves as GM Secret for players across reads, search and mentions, and the GM editor marks the block so you can see why it will not travel
• fixed Revealed sessions keep their reveal levers, vehicles follow their visible owners, mentions inside media captions are indexed, and key events no longer carry stale GM flags
• fixed The focus ring paints only on keyboard focus, so clicking a card no longer leaves it outlined
• security The relationship and foundations REST routes refuse a player view outright rather than filtering it, so a player token cannot reach a GM projection through them

September 11, 2026

The Timeline and Geography graphs were rebuilt from the canvas up. The Timeline became the Braid: packed lanes that fit a long campaign without scrolling, session cards you can read at a glance, and a trail that lights up every session an entity appeared in. Geography stopped requiring map images: your places now draw themselves as nested boxes or a tidy tree, with the pin-on-image Atlas re-homed as a map mode any location can open. Session observations became a real feature you can read and edit, and Grimoire MCP learned to write them. Next up: custom entity graph improvements, and a UI and UX pass on the player portal.

• added The Timeline is now the Braid: story arcs, session cards and open threads pack into lanes that fit a long campaign on one screen, with a Session detail toggle that expands each card and a preference that remembers how you like it
• added Entity trail: pick an entity from a session card and every session it appears in lights up, with a rail drawn through the spine, built from the links your recaps already carry so there is nothing to author
• added A Trace entity button with a filterable list, and a labelled Clear trail control, so following one character through the campaign no longer means hunting for the right card first
• added The Open Threads panel gained a Resolved tab, so closed threads stay readable instead of disappearing
• fixed Sessions order by session number and then by date, so a campaign whose sessions have no calendar dates no longer appears in a scrambled order on the Timeline
• changed Thread colours were re-stepped to a colourblind-safe set (Promise and Mystery were nearly identical before), and every place that drew thread colours now reads the same canonical palette
• removed The old Timeline renderer and its Connect tool were retired along with hand-drawn timeline connections, which never reached AI clients and are replaced by the entity trail
• added Geography works without a single map image: your places draw on the canvas as Nested places, folding containment boxes you can open full-canvas, or as a Tidy tree, with a density toggle, a legend and a details drawer
• added Every location can open a map mode, so the pin-on-image Atlas now lives per place, keeping its tools, zoom, pins, markers and uploads, reached with Open map or Add a map
• added An always-visible Unplaced band shows the places that sit nowhere yet, and the details drawer can set a parent without leaving the canvas
• added Pinning a place onto another place's map now records the hierarchy: a place with no parent is placed silently, and one that already lives somewhere else asks first, naming all three places, because everything inside it moves too
• changed The map placement list now offers everything directly linked to that place, the places inside it plus its NPCs, creatures and factions, uncapped, and each one can be placed by dragging or from the keyboard
• changed Location types read at a glance: four scale tiers, from cosmos down to site, each with its own shape and short tag, checked for colourblind and contrast safety, and genre preset types are mapped onto the same tiers
• changed Your place on the Geography canvas rides the address bar: the selected place, the open box and map mode all survive a refresh or a shared link, and layout and density persist per browser
• fixed A location's full description now reads in the Geography details drawer instead of being cut short; the canvas still shows a trimmed line, where there is no room for more
• removed The Locations page tree view was retired in favour of the Geography lens, which does the same job better; a saved tree preference falls back to the table
• added Session observations, the notes that colour a session, are now readable and editable where you would expect them: clicking a session opens its details with every observation listed in full, with add, edit and remove
• fixed The AI narrative state only reports observations attached to the sessions it is summarising, instead of falling back to older ones from sessions nobody is looking at
• added Grimoire MCP: AI clients can create, edit and remove session observations, so a note worth keeping can be marked while prepping or writing up a session instead of only by hand afterwards
• added Grimoire MCP: pins on a location map now read as links in the geography graph for GM connections, so where a character or creature was found is something the AI can follow, without those pins appearing as links anywhere else
• changed An observation type outside the four Grimoire offers is now refused by name rather than stored, so an AI client cannot quietly invent a category
• security Editing or deleting a session observation or a story arc now verifies it belongs to the campaign you are working in

September 1, 2026

The wiki learned to link, table, and stay honest about who sees what. Type [[ to link any page mid-sentence or create one on the spot, drop a simple table with /table, and mention entities with @. Visibility now resolves exactly the way it reads, and Grimoire MCP caught up to all of it: AI clients can read and write tables, search the wiki by text, and are held to the same boundaries as the app.

• added Inline page links: type [[ anywhere in the wiki to link an existing page or create a new one mid-sentence; links render as chips that follow the page title
• added Simple tables in the wiki: /table drops a grid with a header row, and the block handle menu has a Table group for adding or deleting rows and columns
• added @ entity mentions in the wiki editor: link NPCs, locations, and any other entity inline, with names that stay current when the entity is renamed, and create a matching entity on the spot when the name is new
• changed Wiki visibility resolves end to end the way it reads: a page inherits from the block that links it, then its parent chain, and an unreachable page is invisible everywhere, including search, mentions, and backlinks
• changed Root wiki pages no longer sit at inherit: existing ones were promoted to common knowledge, so a whole wiki can no longer hide behind an unset toggle
• changed The link index tracks inline page links and sheds references to deleted targets, so "Linked from" stays truthful
• added Grimoire MCP: AI clients can create and edit wiki tables as plain markdown grids and read every table back the same way, with entity and page links working inside cells
• added Grimoire MCP: a new search_wiki tool searches page titles and content under the same visibility rules the app enforces
• fixed Grimoire MCP: batch entity creation works from every AI client (the entities parameter was declared with the wrong schema type, so strict clients could never call it), and tags are no longer dropped silently on create and update
• changed Grimoire MCP: every wiki tool description was rewritten against current behavior, block writes validate their type and shape, and replacing the Campaign Bible can no longer lose content if a write fails midway
• security Grimoire MCP wiki access is scoped to the campaign wiki space with uniform not-found responses, deleting a page card tidies up its page exactly like the app does, and the Campaign Bible title block is protected from deletion
• changed Grimoire MCP: every thread reports its status, and resolving a thread records the closing progression on its own so the timeline and thread history stay complete from any client
• fixed Threads created or resolved through the API or Grimoire MCP now carry their start and resolution progressions; existing threads with a linked session were backfilled
• changed Key events can be marked important and canonical from both the session form and the sessions table, and their order follows the list
• changed Search now covers every text field on an entity, and as the GM it also finds matches in your GM-only notes and custom fields (players never match on those)
• changed Custom fields can be marked GM Secret in Campaign Settings: a secret field's value stays out of every player read, in the app and over Grimoire MCP, exactly like the built-in GM Secret fields, and a value left behind by a deleted custom field stays GM-only until the field is defined again
• changed Grimoire MCP: get_narrative_state now carries each recent session's GM-only consequences and behind-the-scenes notes for GM connections, so understanding why something happened no longer takes a separate read per session
• fixed Grimoire MCP: get_relationships no longer lists a faction membership twice and now labels incoming junction rows with the right target category
• changed Grimoire MCP: the compact graph maps in get_entity_catalog and the Layer 1 read now use the same edge vocabulary and sources as get_knowledge_graph, so NPC-to-NPC relationships, rivalries, and primary faction memberships appear everywhere; geography edges read located_in from child to parent
• fixed Grimoire MCP: Layer 1 graph structures return an empty edge list instead of null when no attention entities are connected
• changed Grimoire MCP: get_knowledge_graph timeline now links each session to the NPCs, locations, quests, loot, creatures, PCs, planar forces and lore it touched
• fixed NPC relationships you record now show up on the Political Web without adding each character to the graph by hand
• fixed The campaign tone line stops repeating itself: a genre facet that restates its base genre word for word no longer contributes the same clause twice, on the campaign home header and everywhere Grimoire MCP reports campaign context
• changed Graphs now place your entities for you by default: the Political Web, Timeline, and Geography fill in as you build the world instead of starting empty, and the graph settings panel still offers Manual if you would rather add every entity by hand
• added A faction's leader and an NPC's superior now show as their own connections on the Political Web, so a chain of command appears without adding either side to the graph by hand
• changed Filing a session recap now places the people and places it names on the graphs: the NPCs and player characters join the Political Web and the locations join Geography
• added Session recaps can record the factions involved, and filing one places those factions on the Political Web and the timeline
• fixed The Add Custom Field dialog opened from a database table no longer sits beneath the table's Title column header
• fixed Graph settings save on the first change again: the second-toggle quirk after opening a graph's settings panel is gone, and a never-configured graph no longer switches itself off the first time its settings open
• fixed Custom graphs draw the location hierarchy and quest connections they always promised: parent locations, quest NPCs, quest locations and quest items now appear as edges
• fixed Geography "All depths" really shows every level; the projection was silently capped two levels below the roots
• fixed Pinning a player character, session prep, world rule, deity or mechanic on a location map no longer fails
• changed A location can no longer be placed inside itself or one of its own descendants
• changed Saving an NPC, location or deity form keeps the details other tools recorded on its relationships (relationship type, strength, notable flags) instead of resetting them
• added Session recaps can name the NPCs, locations, quests, loot, creatures, player characters, deities, lore and factions involved while being created, not only when edited, and creating one places those entities on their graphs right away
• changed Grimoire MCP: timeline nodes carry each session's stored session number, and the attention view no longer includes custom connections whose endpoints are outside it
• changed Grimoire MCP: player-role graph reads no longer include an entity's status or its relationship to the party, and GM-drawn custom connections are GM-only
• changed Grimoire MCP: marking an entity through toggle_graph_attention now sticks, exactly like marking it in the app
• removed The unused per-location attention sliders on Geography were removed; attention on graphs is unchanged

July 9, 2026

The biggest release since launch. Player accounts are now real Grimoire accounts: one login for the worlds you run and the worlds you play in, with invite links that join a campaign in one click. On top of that, nearly every surface was rebuilt: a warm new visual identity, a unified sidebar, an entity peek drawer, denser tables, a restructured wiki, one Graphs workspace, and settings that finally live inside the app.

• added Unified accounts: players sign in with a regular Grimoire account and hold a per-campaign role, so the same login runs your worlds and plays in your friends' worlds
• added Invite links: share a /join link and players see a campaign preview and join in one click; the campaigns page gains a "Playing in" shelf and a join-first path that skips campaign creation
• added Entity peek drawer: every entity reference opens a side sheet with full details, connections, and everywhere it appears; drawers are URL-addressable and the browser Back button steps through your chain
• added One Graphs workspace: World Foundations, Political Web, Timeline, Geography, and your custom graphs live as tabs on a single surface, with on-canvas entity adding
• added Wiki search across page titles and content, plus a Wiki mode in the command palette
• added Wiki right rail with an on-page table of contents and the entities mentioned on the page
• added Wiki Home page and a GM Trash panel: the root page cannot be deleted, Clear cascades safely with a hard warning, and trashed pages can be restored
• added Threads can link a quest: linked quests show as chips on dashboard thread cards and in the palette, and resolving a linked thread prompts about the quest
• added Campaign settings rebuilt inside the app shell: four focused tabs, portal policy cards that show exactly what players will see, and a live plan card with founders pricing
• added MCP activity log now records every tool call with user attribution, visible on the Knowledge tab
• changed New visual identity: warm umber and gold palette, serif display type, border-defined cards, and denser tables that fit half again as many rows above the fold
• changed Unified navigation: one sidebar carries your whole world including the wiki page tree, and the topbar with breadcrumbs and search now spans databases and wiki alike
• changed Dashboard rebuilt: on-stage entities, thread cards, and the chronicle are all clickable and open the peek drawer in place
• changed Player portal respects your reveal settings end to end: revealed-world players get full sidebar navigation while wiki-only players keep a focused reading layout
• fixed Undo and redo now work in collaborative wiki editing sessions
• fixed Tables always fill their available width, the column picker scrolls without closing, and row hover actions fade correctly
• removed The Pin Board: the rebuilt dashboard and denser tables now cover what it did, better
• removed Separate player logins: existing invite flows now create standard accounts
• security Collaborative wiki sessions now verify campaign membership server-side before opening a connection

May 18, 2026

Grimoire is no longer fantasy-only. Campaigns now pick a base genre, stackable facets, a ruleset, and structural dimensions, so a sci-fi or horror campaign stops inheriting fantasy vocabulary. Vehicles joins as the 14th entity type, and paid campaigns can define their own typed custom fields on any category.

• added Seven base genres (Fantasy, Sci-Fi, Post-Apocalyptic, Horror, Modern/Urban, Superhero, Historical) that reskin field-option vocabularies, display names, default categories, and AI tone
• added Stackable, additive-only genre facets (Horror, Cyber, Survival, Mystery, War, Mecha, and more) that append field options, tags, and tone without renaming or removing anything
• added Vehicles: the 14th entity type for starships, airships, war rigs, and getaway cars, available now via the REST API and Grimoire MCP
• added Per-campaign ruleset field (e.g. "D&D 5e", "Mothership 1e") persisted and surfaced to the AI as mechanical scaffolding

• added Custom fields appear automatically in every entity create and edit form and on detail views, and ride to AI clients in the MCP campaignContext block
• fixed update_entity now merges custom field values instead of replacing them wholesale, preventing data loss when an AI client updates an entity
• changed Per-campaign entity-category enable/disable enforced in MCP reads and writes: disabled categories are omitted from reads and rejected on writes
• changed Existing campaigns backfilled to the Fantasy genre with identical vocabulary; the fantasy path is behavior-identical to before
