Let an agent run a theme park in RollerCoaster Tycoon

A developer had Claude Code operate a RollerCoaster Tycoon park by itself, from placing rides to handling problems and writing status reports.

What they did
Ramp Labs set Claude Code loose inside RollerCoaster Tycoon so it could manage a park on its own through a command-line setup. The agent handled ride placement, dealt with infrastructure issues, and produced reports in a CFO-like style. The page available for review did not explain the wiring, the tools, or where a person took over.
How it went
The source only claims that the park was managed autonomously. It gives no figures, and it does not say whether the agent hit any limits or failed at anything.
Tips
If you try this, define what counts as a good park before you start, and make the agent show its plan before it changes anything important. Pause for approval before any action that could spend money, remove structures, or submit a final decision.

Try it yourself with Claude Code

You are controlling [RollerCoaster Tycoon / OpenRCT2] through [your plugin, API, or command interface]. Read the current park state, then choose the next best action to improve [your target, such as guest count, park rating, or profit] over [time span or number of turns]. After each step, give a short report with what changed, what is still risky, and what you want to do next. Before any irreversible action, including payments, deleting a ride, submitting a final plan, or closing a decision loop, stop and ask for my approval. When you finish, summarize the park’s final state, the main strategies you used, and any issues you noticed.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
