- Character sheets gain structured combat_stats, abilities (name +
plain-language explanation), and equipment fields, populated by the
upsert_character_sheet tool; the detail page renders them as their
own sections instead of one prose block, with a player-card-style
attribute grid (full ability names + modifiers).
- Fix double-escaped unicode occasionally left in tool-call JSON
arguments (a model quirk) and stop the app's own json.dumps calls
from re-introducing it (ensure_ascii=False).
- Render chat messages as markdown (react-markdown + Tailwind
typography) instead of raw text, and widen the games/characters/
chat layout to use more of the screen on desktop.
- Sharpen the DM system prompt: state the ability + DC for each
offered action option before the player commits, and narrate rolls
as DC → result → pass/fail before the story consequence; also stop
re-asking Session-0 questions already answered in the game's
name/description.
- Make the DM's LLM provider configurable (xai default, lmstudio for
a local OpenAI-compatible server via host.docker.internal) instead
of hardcoded to x.ai.

RAG: switch Postgres to pgvector, chunk and embed the three D&D
rulebooks locally via sentence-transformers, and retrieve relevant
excerpts per DM turn (query = latest player message) to ground the
system prompt. Retrieval runs off the event loop and is capped by a
relevance threshold and a max character budget so it can't blow up
context size or cost.
Game setup wizard: creating a game now opens a short chat where the
DM asks about genre, length, and the player's experience level, then
proposes a name and description via a tool call. The player can edit
both before creating the game. Stateless endpoint — the frontend
carries the conversation, no DB needed since the game doesn't exist
yet.
