AI features & your privacy
The features marked “AI Feature*” send a request to a commercial AI provider through this site’s server. Their roles differ. Generated explanations are interpretive aids; they do not amend the constitution or establish World canon.

Living Crossroads: authored outcomes
The classifier cannot introduce a new event, change a meter, or write an ending. Its selected ID is checked against the offered choices, and the browser checks availability again before applying the authored result. Model explanations, internal notes, and error details are never displayed as story text.
If Korda’s classifier is unavailable, the game asks you to choose an available move; its buttons remain playable. Korda is explicitly non-canon, and all proposed Convention resolutions still face the constitutional ratification process. No playthrough advances the public storyline.
Requests and privacy
The Crossroads handler is stateless and does not save moves or playthroughs to an application database. The browser keeps the current game in memory; reloading starts over. Typed requests are nevertheless transmitted to the hosting service and AI provider, whose processing and retention policies apply. This is not a promise that infrastructure keeps no operational logs. Avoid including personal or confidential information.
You can play Living Crossroads entirely through the written choice buttons without sending a move to the classifier.
