START / GUIDE 01

Getting started

Create your first campaign and open the editor.

Campaign Studio is a hosted editor. Authors sign in through the web app; there is no application or database to install on your computer. If you want an AI client to author with you, connect it to the hosted MCP endpoint after you have Studio access.

Before you begin

You need a Wayweaver account with active author access to a workspace. A player account alone does not grant Studio access. Your workspace owner or administrator provisions author membership.

Open Campaign Studio

  1. Open Campaign Studio and sign in.
  2. In the campaign library, select Create campaign.
  3. Enter an internal title for authors and a display title for players, then create the draft.
  4. Open the campaign title or Open workflow to enter its canvas.

The campaign is a draft until you publish a revision. Draft changes do not alter previously published revisions, playtests, or running player sessions.

Make your first mission

  1. Choose Add mission in the campaign canvas palette.
  2. Enter the author and player titles. The new mission appears on the campaign route and has a starter mission graph.
  3. Open its mission tab or Open mission graph. Add story and interaction nodes from the palette.
  4. Connect output ports to input ports, then return to the campaign route and connect the mission exit to another mission or an ending.
  5. Resolve the validation findings, then choose Test campaign to create a playtest snapshot.

Follow Create a mission for the complete walkthrough. Use Mission nodes to choose the right interaction.

Connect an AI authoring client

Open AI connections in the Studio header and create a scoped connection. Copy its one-time bearer token into your MCP client's environment, then add https://www.wayweaver.app/api/mcp as the server URL. The MCP connection guide includes the exact steps and a Codex example.
