How to debug player data and storage with your AI

Connect Nakama to your AI client to inspect live player states. Once connected, your agent can read and edit storage objects to fix broken game logic.

Short answer

How can I debug player data using my AI?

Your AI uses Nakama tools to pull specific storage objects or account details directly into your chat. You can then ask the agent to find inconsistencies or apply fixes to player state. This gives you a direct way to manipulate live data without manual database queries.

Where every issue lands.

Debugging outcomes

Your agent handles the heavy lifting of data retrieval and modification.

TRIAGE

Identify broken states

The AI pulls player account info and storage lists to find where data deviates from expected logic.

FIX

Modify player data

Your agent writes new values to storage objects to correct inventory errors or level progression issues.

TEST

Trigger remote logic

Run specific server-side functions via RPC calls to test how game logic reacts to different inputs.

MANUAL

Human intervention

You decide when a data change is safe. The AI proposes the fix, but you confirm the final write operation.

The workflow

What your AI does when the issue arrives.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and the Nakama backend.

  1. Locate the data

    The agent finds the specific storage keys or account IDs needed to begin the investigation.

    list_storage_objectsget_account

  2. Inspect the state

    Your AI reads the actual content of the storage objects to see exactly what the player's current state is.

    read_storage_objects

  3. Execute logic tests

    The agent calls server-side functions to test specific game mechanics or trigger state changes.

    rpc_call

  4. Apply the fix

    After you approve, the agent updates or removes data to resolve the bug.

  • List all storage objects for player ID 'user_123' so I can see their current inventory.

  • Read the storage object 'stats' for user 'player_99' and tell me if their level is higher than 10.

  • Call the 'validate_purchase' RPC for user 'user_456' with the payload {'item_id': 'sword_01'}.

  • Update the 'currency' storage object for user 'user_789' to set the value to 500.

FAQ

How this task behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI delete player accounts?

    No. The tools only allow for reading, writing, and deleting storage objects or calling RPCs. Account deletion is not supported.

  • 02

    Will the AI change my production data without asking?

    No. While the AI has the capability to write data, you must instruct it to perform the specific write or delete action in the chat.

  • 03

    Can I use this to test my server-side functions?

    Yes. You can use the RPC tool to trigger any function exposed on your Nakama server.

  • 04

    Does the AI see all player data?

    The AI only sees the data you specifically ask it to retrieve using the storage or account tools.

  • 05

    Can the AI create new storage objects?

    Yes. Using the write tool, the AI can create new storage entries for a player.
