Scrollsmith is a Node.js tool for generating Dungeons & Dragons one-page dungeon PDFs automatically. It uses an Ollama LLM server to create dungeon content, proofreads and refines it, then formats it into a structured PDF with maps, rooms, encounters, treasure, and NPCs.

Features

Three-pass dungeon generation:
1. Draft: initial dungeon ideas
2. Refine: proofread, add flavor, fill in vague details
3. JSON conversion: output strictly valid JSON for PDF generation
Automatically generates a PDF named after the dungeon title
PDF layout includes three columns: map & hooks, rooms, encounters & treasure & NPCs
Easy to integrate with a local Ollama server

Requirements

Node.js 22+
Ollama server running and accessible
Nextcloud (optional) for PDF uploads
.env file with:

OLLAMA_API_URL=http://localhost:3000/api/chat/completions
OLLAMA_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

Installation

git clone https://github.com/yourusername/scrollsmith.git
cd scrollsmith
npm install

Usage

Make sure your Ollama server is running and .env is configured.
Run:

npm start

A PDF will be generated automatically. The filename matches the dungeon title.

Optional: update the map path in index.js if you have a local dungeon map.

Example Output

the-tomb-of-shadows.pdf
Three-column layout:
- Column 1: Map, Adventure Hooks, Rumors
- Column 2: Rooms
- Column 3: Encounters, Treasure, NPCs

Notes

Make sure your Ollama server is accessible and API key is valid.
Dungeon generation can take a few minutes depending on your LLM response time.
