Machine-readable by design

Give an AI context, not just commandments.

Each principle is a self-contained record with stable identity, explicit scope, evidence strength, exceptions, disagreement, relationships, and source keys.

Choose the right format

One source, several ingestion paths.

Recommended behavior

Retrieve narrowly. Reason conditionally. Cite visibly.

01
Find by problem and domain.
Retrieve a small cluster using title, statement, tags, domain, and relationship edges.
02
Check the boundaries.
Read type, confidence, applies-when, exceptions, and disagreement before forming advice.
03
Keep implementation separate.
Treat implementation notes as adaptable examples, not as the durable principle itself.
04
Return traceable guidance.
Cite the permanent ID, version, and canonical principle URL so a human can inspect it.

Suggested instructionplain text

Use the Game Development Constitution as a decision-support reference.

For each recommendation:
1. Cite the relevant principle ID and public-edition version.
2. Distinguish objective, contextual, and stylistic guidance.
3. Respect "Applies when" and "Exceptions" before recommending action.
4. Surface recorded disagreement instead of inventing consensus.
5. Prefer higher-confidence principles, but never treat confidence as certainty.
6. If project evidence conflicts with a principle, say so explicitly.

Local Unreal setup

Give the agent a library, not a giant prompt.

Download and extract the bundle into a folder your AI can read. Direct it to UNREAL_AI_START_HERE.md; the router will choose one primary skill and load only the references needed for the current task.

1. Extract the bundle
2. Grant your AI access to the folder
3. Say: “Read UNREAL_AI_START_HERE.md, then help me diagnose…”
4. Keep the primary skill and relevant reference in context

The failure mode to avoid

Do not flatten contextual guidance into universal truth.

The constitution is useful because it records conditions and tensions. An AI that copies only the Statement field discards the information most likely to prevent confident but inappropriate advice.
