## Examples

### Creating a New Level

```python
# Create a simple level with platforms
level_tiles = [
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],  # Empty top row
    [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0],  # Empty row
    [0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0],  # Grass platform
    [1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1],  # Ground platforms
    [2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2],  # Rock foundation
]

result = create_level(
    level_name="My First Level",
    description="A simple starter level",
    tiles=level_tiles,
    width=10,
    height=5,
    maxEnemies=3,
    enemySpawnChance=10.0,
    coinSpawnChance=20.0
)
```

### Editing a Level

```python
# Edit a single tile
result = edit_level_tile(
    encoded_level="your_encoded_level_here",
    row=2,
    col=5,
    new_tile_type=6  # Add spikes
)

# Edit level metadata
result = edit_level_metadata(
    encoded_level="your_encoded_level_here",
    new_name="Updated Level",
    max_enemies=5,
    enemy_spawn_chance=15.0
)
```

### Viewing and Playing Levels

```python
# View level visualization
result = view_level("your_encoded_level_here")
print(result["visualization"])

# Generate PNG image
image_path = view_level_image("your_encoded_level_here")

# Get play URL
result = play_level("your_encoded_level_here")
print(f"Play at: {result['play_url']}")
```

## Development

### Running the Server

```bash
python vibe_tide_mcp_server.py
```

### Testing

The server includes comprehensive error handling and validation for all level operations.
