# RPG Maker Dialog Skill

This skill covers reading, writing, and editing NPC dialog in RPG Maker MV and
MZ projects. It teaches agents where dialog lives in the project files, what
the event command structure looks like, and how to maintain character voice
consistency when drafting new lines.

All dialog suggestions generated by this skill are **drafts for developer
review** — never authoritative final copy.

## Where Dialog Lives

Dialog is stored as structured event commands in three locations:

### 1. `data/CommonEvents.json`

Reusable dialog sequences — inn conversations, quest hand-ins, shop greetings.
This file is a JSON array where **index 0 is always null**. Each event object
has an `id`, `name`, and `list` of event commands.

```json
[
  null,
  {
    "id": 1,
    "name": "Innkeeper Dialog",
    "trigger": 0,
    "switchId": 0,
    "list": [
      { "code": 101, "indent": 0, "parameters": ["Actor1", 0, 0, 2] },
      { "code": 401, "indent": 0, "parameters": ["Welcome to the village inn!"] },
      { "code": 0,   "indent": 0, "parameters": [] }
    ]
  }
]
```

### 2. `data/MapXXX.json` event pages

NPC dialog attached to a specific map. Each map file has an `events` array
(null at index 0). Each event has a `pages` array, and each page has a `list`
of event commands.

```json
{
  "events": [
    null,
    {
