## How to ask your coding agent questions from inside WoW with Wow AI

Repo: [chelinho139/wow-ai](https://github.com/chelinho139/wow-ai) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 60 minutes | Basis: From the README

Run the bridge, then send a task from the game and get pinged when the agent replies.

**Who it is for:** A WoW: Forever player who already uses Claude Code or Codex and wants answers without alt-tabbing while questing.

**The problem:** Switching windows to ask an agent a question breaks the flow of play, and reloading the UI for each message is slow.

**The outcome:** Your agent replies inside the game window, with the whisper sound and a live progress view while it works.

### Steps

1. Run `git clone https://github.com/chelinho139/wow-ai` and then `cd wow-ai`.
2. Run `node setup.js --project "C:\path\to\the\project\you\want\to\work\on"` (on Linux or macOS, use the matching project path).
3. Fully quit and relaunch WoW, then enable WoW AI on the AddOns screen.
4. Run `npm start` in a terminal and leave it open.
5. In game, type `/wow-ai`, click Connect until the light turns green, then type a message and press Enter.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
In the wow-ai repo, follow the README install steps for your OS with the project path <project-folder>, start the bridge with npm start, then confirm the bridge light is green in the WoW window. Expected output: a short reply from the agent appearing in the game chat. Verify the reply arrived in the window before reporting success.
```

### Caveat

Agent commands run in the folder you pick, and Claude or Grok may ask for an allowlist entry before running a tool, so review the permission mode in docs/AGENTS.md first.

Risk, credentials: The bridge runs your installed agent CLI headless using the login you already set up for it, so that account is used for every message.

## How to get a numbered quest route drawn on your world map with Wow AI

Repo: [chelinho139/wow-ai](https://github.com/chelinho139/wow-ai) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 60 minutes | Basis: From the README

Ask the agent for a route and follow the navigator arrow from stop to stop.

**Who it is for:** A questing player with a long list of stops who wants the order and locations shown on the map instead of planned by hand.

**The problem:** Planning a quest route by reading notes and checking the map for each stop takes time and is easy to get wrong.

**The outcome:** The world map shows numbered stops and marks, and a navigator arrow walks you from one stop to the next.

### Steps

1. Complete the install steps for your OS in the README and keep `npm start` running.
2. In game, type `/wow-ai` and open the window.
3. Ask the agent for a route through the quests or zones you want, and mention your quest log if you enabled it.
4. Open the world map to see the numbered route, quest stops and marks the agent drew.
5. Follow the navigator arrow, or step through the stops in order.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
In the wow-ai repo, after the bridge is running, ask the chat agent to draw a numbered route for <list of quests or zones> on the world map. Expected output: numbered stops and marks visible on the world map with a navigator arrow. Verify the route appears on the map before telling the user it is ready.
```

### Caveat

The route depends on the agent's reading of your quest log and zone, and the README does not describe how accurate those routes are, so check each stop before you travel.

## How to turn a chat request into a macro on your action bar with Wow AI

Repo: [chelinho139/wow-ai](https://github.com/chelinho139/wow-ai) | Difficulty: Intermediate | Time: 45 minutes | Basis: From the README

Ask for a macro, click Create macro, and drop it on an action bar from the cursor.

**Who it is for:** A player who wants a custom macro but does not want to write the syntax by hand.

**The problem:** Writing macro lines and saving them in the right place takes trial and error, especially for players new to macros.

**The outcome:** The macro is saved to your game and placed on your cursor, ready to drop on an action bar, and you can undo it.

### Steps

1. Complete the install steps for your OS and run `npm start`.
2. In game, type `/wow-ai` and ask the agent for a macro that does what you need.
3. When the reply shows, click the Create macro button.
4. Drag the macro from your cursor onto an action bar.
5. If you want it removed, type `/wow-ai macro undo`.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
In the wow-ai repo, with the bridge running, ask the chat agent for a WoW macro that <goal>. Expected output: a reply with a Create macro button. Verify the button is present and that the macro is on the cursor after clicking it.
```

### Caveat

The README does not list which macro lines the game accepts, so test the macro on a safe target before relying on it in combat.

## How to see herb and ore spawns on your world map with Wow AI

Repo: [chelinho139/wow-ai](https://github.com/chelinho139/wow-ai) | Difficulty: Beginner | Time: 30 minutes | Basis: From the README

Use two slash commands to show gathering nodes filtered by your skill.

**Who it is for:** A gathering player who wants to find herb or ore nodes without checking each zone by hand.

**The problem:** Finding nodes for a specific gathering profession means hunting through zones or looking up outside sites.

**The outcome:** Herb or ore spawns appear on your world map, filtered to your gathering skill.

### Steps

1. Complete the install steps for your OS so the WoW AI addon is enabled.
2. In game, run `/wow-ai map ore` to show ore spawns.
3. Run `/wow-ai map herb` to show herb spawns.
4. Open the world map to see the spawns for your gathering skill.

### Prompt to paste into your agent

```text
In the wow-ai repo, with WoW AI enabled in game, run /wow-ai map herb and /wow-ai map ore and check the world map. Expected output: spawn markers for the chosen gathering type. Verify that the markers match your gathering skill before reporting results.
```

### Caveat

The map commands depend on the addon being enabled in game, so this does not work from the terminal alone.
