Work actions
11 registered menu actions in /play → Work.
Open /play and choose this category, select an action, fill the fields and inspect the review before committing. These are menu actions, not 97 separately registered slash commands.
Required fields are listed below. Valid choices come from the current authorized character view; unavailable resources, prerequisites or locations can prevent an action. An action appearing in the contract does not grant its prerequisites.
Reference
| Action | Inputs | Contract / behavior |
|---|---|---|
| Start work | work (required), cycles (optional), mode (optional), method (optional), fallback (optional) | Commit one active challenge or several timed cycles. Inputs and a required tool are reserved immediately. |
| Start expert | work (required), objective (optional), focus (optional) | Commit real inputs, site access and a tool to a profession-specific problem. The finished batch settles no earlier than its work boundary. |
| Work action | job (required), action (required), turn (required) | Apply one intervention to the current batch. An old turn number is rejected. |
| Craft | recipe (required), cycles (optional), substitutions (optional) | Reserve recipe inputs. Each batch consumes its own inputs and automatically settles its output. |
| Craft materials | recipe (required), cycles (optional), selected (optional), process (optional) | Reserve measured batches, preserving their chosen properties through a quoted process. The output carries its own provenance. |
| Manufacturing quote | recipe (required), cycles (optional), selected (optional), process (optional) | Inspect an exact batch selection without reserving it. The same selection is revalidated when work begins. |
| Inspect material | item (required) | Current ownership, resources, prerequisites, version and location are validated by the engine. |
| Salvage | item (required) | KNOWN CURRENT DEFECT: the installed recipe selector expects an absent id field and raises an error. This action is registered but salvage does not complete. Preserve the item and report the failure; verify consumed/output inventory only after a fix. |
| Set specialty | skill (required), index (required) | Current ownership, resources, prerequisites, version and location are validated by the engine. |
| Masterwork | skill (required), objective (optional) | Current ownership, resources, prerequisites, version and location are validated by the engine. |
| Study career | skill (required) | Current ownership, resources, prerequisites, version and location are validated by the engine. |
