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 the user wants to play or asks about today's word. The result has the score so far and how the user sees their word: on th

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 next guess waits for the next photo. Writing that's already in the world is fine, but the guess can't be a word written in

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, a sign) is not a foul unless your guess is written in it. The photo doesn't count and no shot is used. In Get Out & Go,

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 hint; no new photo needed. One hint per shot. Each hint adds a 💡 to the user's share grid, and solving with no hints is the

get_statusread-only

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 today's list is open, how far along they are, and after 9 p.m. their results and the photobomb. With a challenge code it chec

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 plays their own round right away, like a daily round, with the challenge code on every call. Joining stays open for 2 hours
