• start_round

  Start or resume today's Show & Tell round. Show & Tell is a daily game you play with the user: they get a secret word you're not allowed to know, they send you photos of the real world, and you guess the word from the photos. Everyone gets the same word each day. Use this when…

• submit_guess

  Lock in exactly one single-word guess for the user's newest photo, or for the hint they just spent, based on all of today's photos together. First describe the photo to the user in one sentence (after a hint, say what it changes). One guess per new photo or hint: otherwise the…

• call_foul

  Call a foul when words, not the picture, would do the telling: writing made for the game (a note, letter tiles), a screen held up to show something, a hint the user types about the word, or your guess is written in the photo. Writing that's already in the world (a label, a logo…

• use_lifeline

  Use this only when the user asks for a hint. Reveals the word's category (after the first photo), its length (after 2 shots), or its first letter (after 4 shots). A hint is a shot of its own: right after it, call submit_guess with your guess, using every photo so far plus the…

  Check the user's Show & Tell day: whether today's word is played, their streak, whether the streak is at risk, and when the next word unlocks. Use it for check-ins and for daily reminders the user asked you to schedule. With mode "go" it checks Get Out & Go instead: whether…

• start_challenge

  Set up a friends challenge. The user gets a code and an invite to paste into their group chat (texts, WhatsApp, anything), and everyone who joins plays the same secret word by the daily's rules: six shots, a hint is a shot, fewest shots wins, ties go to the fastest. The user…

• sign_in

  Sign the user in to Show & Tell in this app, so every chat here plays as their account, with the same streak in any app they sign in from. Use it when the user asks to sign in, or to keep their streak in every chat. The app may show its own prompt to connect; when they're done…
