* The purpose of the wiki is to help our players and promote new content.
* Consider the age of quests and secrets when updating the wiki. For new content, slight hints and directions are ok but don't spoil it immediately.
* Something that has been out for a while and is likely known by most players shouldn’t be hidden from new players.
* Ask in the wiki team chat in Discord if you are uncertain about something.

#### Spoilers <a href="#spoilers" id="spoilers"></a>

* Some players want to explore the game without being spoiled. Put content that must be explored inside hidden sections.

#### Sections <a href="#sections" id="sections"></a>

* Make sure that all parts of article are understandable and legible.
* Different phases or important things like items needed, special preparations or important spots should be marked as such with proper headline.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://soerpg.gitbook.io/soe-wiki/readme/contributing.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
