Fan companion

The conversation

A racing fan asks:

“When does the next round start?”
“Is Maya Torres racing?”
“How does qualifying work again?”
“Did I miss quali?”

The last message is short, but the earlier messages show that the fan cares about this event and wants an immediate yes-or-no answer.

Without and with Era

Without Era	With Era
“I don’t have the current day or time, so I can’t say for sure. Check the schedule.”	“No, you’re good. Qualifying is tomorrow morning.”

The first answer treats the message as an isolated schedule question. The second answer uses the live goal and urgency from the full conversation.

What Era adds

Before the model responds, Era supplies a block like this:

[STATE v1] urgency=time_sensitive [/STATE]
[GOAL v1] active=seek:check_qualifying_timing_status resolved=unresolved [/GOAL]
[INTENT v1] intent=validating(0.92) specificity=specific [/INTENT]
[CAUSAL v1] emotion=anxious need=confirm_qualifying_has_not_passed [/CAUSAL]
[REC v1] action=validate do="Confirm whether qualifying has happened" priority=0.85 [/REC]

The model can now see that:

The user needs confirmation, not an explanation of qualifying.
The answer is time-sensitive.
A direct answer should come first.

Era does not provide the race schedule. Your application still needs the facts or tools required to answer correctly. Era helps the model understand what to do with those facts.

Integration

const eraContext = await era.turnContext(messages, {
  visitorId,
  sessionId,
});

const reply = await generateText({
  system: `${PERSONA}\n\n${eraContext}`,
  messages,
});

The racing series and driver in this example are fictional.

Node SDK quickstart
