A script is generally a special action associated with an item that is activated by means of a verb. Items which possess scripts are referred to as being scripted or scripted items. This term is considered to be OOC, and should not be used in-game. A common in-game alternative to scripted is actioned or zested, though whether or not this term is more or less out-of-character is up for debate.

Scripts can be ambient (happening without any player-item interaction), or triggered via verb traps. Common verb traps include RUB, TAP, and WAVE. An item will have unique messaging for each of its verb traps.
