What is the Rules Chatbot (Rulebook Mode) and how can it help me during a session?

The Rules Chatbot, accessible through the Campaign Helper's 'Rulebook Mode,' is your ultimate in-session rules assistant. Designed to keep your game flowing, it provides instant answers to rules questions without you needing to flip through physical books or search online. It's grounded only on legally redistributable TTRPG System Reference Documents (SRDs) bundled with the app, such as D&D 5e SRD, Fate Core, and Pathfinder 2e ORC.

When you ask a question, the chatbot retrieves relevant passages from these official sources and provides a concise answer, complete with inline citations (e.g., [1], [2]) directly linking back to the source text. This ensures you're getting accurate, verifiable information, never a hallucination or general knowledge fallback. It's like having an expert rules lawyer at your fingertips, ready to settle disputes or clarify mechanics in seconds.

This feature is a game-changer for maintaining momentum during your sessions. Instead of pausing the action to look up a specific spell effect or combat maneuver, you can get a reliable answer almost instantly, keeping your players engaged and immersed in the story.
