Events
Use this as the event decision workflow for STS2 runs.
Required Reading
Read these before acting:
/home/igorw/Work/STS2/.agents/skills/act-start/references/planning.md/home/igorw/Work/STS2/.agents/skills/act-start/references/rewards-and-deck-shape.md/home/igorw/Work/STS2/.agents/skills/events/references/heuristics.md/home/igorw/Work/STS2/.agents/skills/events/references/known-events.mdif the current event is already documented there- the current character skill for the run
- the current run log under
/home/igorw/Work/STS2/vault/runs
If the event is immediately upstream of an elite or boss, also read:
/home/igorw/Work/STS2/.agents/skills/boss-and-elite-fights/SKILL.md
Workflow
- Read the full event state before choosing:
- title
- event text
- every option with concrete payload text
- trust the live option payload text first; only fall back to local references if the event state is still not concrete enough to choose
- Reconstruct the live run context:
- HP and max HP
- gold
- deck shape and current bloat
- relics and potion slots
- map pressure after the event
- the run's current bottleneck
- Classify the event before choosing:
- damage-control event
- value event
- deck-quality event
- pathing enabler
- hard-fight prep
- trap disguised as value
- Judge each option by this run, not by generic familiarity:
- what it fixes right now
- what it worsens
- what relics, potions, or deck payoffs it synergizes with
- whether it changes the next hard-fight plan
- If any option payload is not concrete, stop and fix the exporter before choosing.
- After choosing, re-read the resulting state if the event changes deck, relics, potions, HP, gold, or pathing permission.
Guardrails
- Do not evaluate an event in isolation from the route.
- Do not take short-term value and then path like a high-roll deck unless the event actually earned that pivot.
- Do not ignore current relic context. Generated cards and event rewards must be judged against the relic stack already in play.
- Do not assume STS1 event instincts are enough; use them as heuristics only.
- If a new repeatable event heuristic appears, tighten this skill or its references instead of leaving it buried in a run log.
Maintenance
Keep this skill short and operational. Durable event-specific lessons belong in the owned references; this skill should stay focused on how to think before choosing.
