Library Packs Guide

What Library Packs Are

A library pack is a reusable bundle of images with a title, description, and tags.

• Use packs to group related assets like map sets, token kits, or encounter bundles.
• Packs do not duplicate your base image files; they organize references to images.
• Tags are pack-level metadata used for search and catalog readability.

Why Library Packs Matter

• Share installable resources: curate once, publish once, then let other users and Wyrlds install immediately.
• Faster prep for everyone: avoid rebuilding the same encounter assets repeatedly.
• Consistency across games: keep map/token sets aligned across tables and campaigns.
• Owner convenience too: creators can still use their own packs directly in table sidebars.
• Cleaner libraries: separate ad-hoc uploads from durable, reusable content bundles.

Library Types

Every library screen is in exactly one library type: User library or Wyrld library.

• User library: personal account context.
• Wyrld library: shared manager/editor context for that Wyrld.
• Owned packs are library-specific: User library owns user packs; Wyrld library owns that Wyrld's packs.
• You can still install packs across libraries, including your own packs from another library.

What Discover Means

Discover is the community resource-sharing catalog.

• Discover shows published packs that are available to your current library.
• Use preview before install to verify pack quality and contents.
• Install adds that pack to the current library's installed list so it is usable in that library.

Owned vs Installed

• Owned: packs created by this exact library.
• Installed: packs attached to this library for use, regardless of who published them.
• Uninstall removes the pack from the current library install list.
• Delete Pack removes the pack itself (and installs that depend on it).

Publishing and Visibility

• Private / Wyrld visibility keeps packs in non-public access paths.
• Public Pro + Published makes a pack discoverable for community use under pro gating.
• Tags improve discoverability because pack search matches title, description, and tags.

Recommended Workflow

1. Create a pack in your current library.
2. Add images and useful tags.
3. Optionally publish when ready for community sharing.
4. Use Discover to find and preview other creators' packs.
5. Install packs into the library where you want to use them.

Permissions and Limits

• Pack tooling is tied to pro capabilities in the active library context.
• Sandbox mode disables discovery and install/uninstall management for packs.
• Wyrld library actions follow Wyrld editor/manager permissions.
