Our review
Halts an active game session, updates game state, and cleans up temporary files.
Strengths
- Provides a clean shutdown of a running game.
- Saves a partial game log for later analysis.
- Cleans up state files and locks to prevent corruption.
Limitations
- Assumes a specific directory structure for game files.
- May not handle concurrent games well if multiple are active.
- Relies on the presence of a game-state.json file with a gameActive flag.
Use when you need to manually stop a game that is running or glitching.
Do not use if you want to pause and resume a game later, as it marks the game as permanently stopped.
Security analysis
CautionThe skill uses bash commands to clean up game state files, including rm -rf on a subdirectory. All paths are constructed from a game name, preventing escape outside the games/ directory. No network access, no exfiltration, and no code injection risk. However, the destructive nature of rm warrants caution.
- •Uses Bash to delete files and recursively remove directories under a game-specific path. While scoped, this is a powerful operation.
Examples
Please stop the game called 'my-rpg' immediately.I need to halt the current game session. Clean it up properly.name: stop-game description: Emergency halt of active game session.

Stop Game - Emergency Halt
Emergency halt an active game session and clean up state files.
Arguments
$0(optional): Game name to stop. If omitted, finds the active game.
Implementation Steps
1. Find Active Game
let gameName = "$0";
if (!gameName) {
// Find active game by checking for active game-state files
const stateFiles = await Glob("games/*/state/game-state.json");
for (const stateFile of stateFiles) {
const state = JSON.parse(await Read(stateFile));
if (state.gameActive) {
gameName = stateFile.split('/')[1];
break;
}
}
if (!gameName) {
console.log("No active games found");
return;
}
}
2. Read Current State
const statePath = `games/${gameName}/state/game-state.json`;
const gameState = JSON.parse(await Read(statePath));
if (!gameState.gameActive) {
console.log(`Game ${gameName} is not active`);
return;
}
3. Mark Game as Stopped
gameState.gameActive = false;
gameState.gameStatus = "stopped";
gameState.stoppedAt = new Date().toISOString();
gameState.stoppedReason = "Manual stop by user";
await Write(statePath, JSON.stringify(gameState, null, 2));
4. Write Partial Log
Save incomplete game log for analysis:
const logTimestamp = new Date().toISOString().replace(/[:.]/g, '-');
const partialLog = {
fileType: "game-log",
status: "stopped",
game: gameName,
gameId: gameState.gameId,
stoppedAt: gameState.stoppedAt,
completedTurns: gameState.turnNumber,
finalState: gameState
};
await Write(
`games/${gameName}/logs/game-stopped-${logTimestamp}.json`,
JSON.stringify(partialLog, null, 2)
);
5. Clean Up State Files
rm -f games/${gameName}/state/turn-signal.json
rm -f games/${gameName}/state/player-actions/*.json
rm -rf games/${gameName}/state/.locks/*
6. Report to User
Display:
- Game name and ID
- Turn number when stopped
- Final player states
- Location of partial log
