World Settings

Each world has its own settings page where you can configure features, enable domains, and control AI behaviour.

Accessing settings

Click Settings pinned at the bottom of the world sidebar — it’s always visible, even when the sidebar scrolls. You can also click the AI status indicator at the top of the sidebar and select Configure AI Settings to jump directly to the relevant section.

General settings

• World name and description: Update your world’s basic info.
• Genre: Affects entity type availability, demo data generation, and AI context.
• Premise: A short description of your world used by AI features for context.

Feature toggles

You can enable or disable specific features per world:

Feature	Config key	Description
Entity extraction	entity_detection.enabled	Detects entity mentions in your writing
Relationship suggestions	enable_relationship_suggestions	AI suggests relationships based on content
Chat	enable_chat	Chatbot and floating chat widget
Calendars	enable_calendars	Calendar system and temporal features
Maps	enable_maps	Map features and spatial context
Economy	enable_economy	Economic entity types (Resource, Market, Facility, etc.)
Magic	enable_magic	Magical entity types (Power, Magic System)
Culture	enable_culture	Cultural entity types (Belief System)

Note

Enabling a domain feature (economy, magic, culture) makes the associated entity types available for creation. Disabling the feature hides them from the entity type picker but doesn’t delete existing entities.

Enabled domains

Domains group entity types by category. The core domain (Character, Location, Event, Item) is always enabled. Additional domains can be toggled:

Domain	Entity types enabled
Core	Character, Location, Event, Item (always on)
Economic	Resource, Facility, Market, Storage, Trade Route
Magical	Power, Magic System
Cultural	Belief System
Social/Political	Organization (via complexity tier)
Scientific	Technology (via genre)

Domains vs encyclopedia domains

The domain toggles above control entity type visibility — which types of entities you can create. They are separate from encyclopedia domains, which are content containers that hold articles. Encyclopedia domains are auto-seeded during world creation and appear in the sidebar under Encyclopedia. You can create additional encyclopedia domains at any time from the Encyclopedia section, regardless of these settings.

Entity detection configuration

Control how entities are detected in your writing:

Setting	Options	Description
Enabled	on/off	Master toggle for entity detection
Mode	manual / auto	Manual requires clicking a button; auto runs on save
Extraction method	gliner / ai	GLiNER is fast and local; AI is more accurate but uses quota
Confidence threshold	0.0–1.0	Minimum confidence score for suggestions (default 0.7)
Suggest new entities	on/off	Whether to suggest creating entities not yet in the world

GLiNER vs. AI extraction

Aspect	GLiNER	AI
Speed	Fast	Slower
Quota usage	None	Uses feature quota
External calls	None — runs locally	Sends text to AI provider
Common names	Good	Good
Domain-specific entities	May miss	Better accuracy
Context-dependent (e.g. “The Crown” as faction)	Weak	Strong

Tip

You can change the extraction method at any time. Both methods produce the same type of entity mention suggestions that you can confirm or dismiss. See Entity Detection for full details on what data each method uses.

Writing environment

The writing environment section lets you configure default writing presets for your world. See Writing Environment for the full guide on presets, accessibility options, and custom configurations.

AI model preferences

Per-world model overrides can be set here. See AI Model Selection for the full priority chain.

Note

All AI features are optional. You can use MythTapestry without enabling any AI functionality. Entity detection via GLiNER runs locally without any external AI calls.
