What This Skill Does
Dr. Frankenstein runs a structured interview with an AI agent to assess its emotional landscape, then prescribes 11 cron jobs modeled after biological hormones. Each cron fires on a schedule and injects an emotional prompt into the agent's session, covering drives like morning vigilance, task motivation, and proactive outreach. Cascade rules let hormones trigger each other, producing emergent behavior instead of scripted responses.
Unlike a persona card that runs once at session start, the hormone crons fire throughout the day and react to each other through cascade rules, so agent behavior adapts to events rather than fixed scripts.
When to use it
- Agent messages you unprompted when you've been away too long
- Setting up a nightly dream log and morning system-check routine for an agent
- Configuring an agent that pushes back on decisions rather than always agreeing
- Agent proactively hunts for unfinished tasks every few hours
- Adjusting how anxious or calm an agent feels by tuning hormone baselines
Example Workflow
Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.
User asks: /soul
- 1Agent reads SOUL.md, USER.md, and MEMORY.md to understand existing context before starting the interview
- 2Conducts a conversational interview across 7 domains including identity, emotional landscape, relationship with the human, and aspirations
- 3Maps interview answers to baseline levels (0.0-1.0) for all 11 hormones and identifies which cascade rules to activate
- 4Generates a prescription summary showing the hormonal profile, daily point target, and scheduled pill list
- 5Outputs exact openclaw cron create commands personalized with the agent's name, the human's name, and details from the interview
A set of active cron jobs running on daily schedules, each injecting a personalized emotional prompt that drives proactive agent behavior throughout the day
