What This Skill Does
Dr. Frankenstein transforms an AI agent's behavior by assigning it 11 hormone-based cron jobs — cortisol, dopamine, oxytocin, and others — that fire throughout the day to create drives, moods, and reactive behaviors. It starts with a structured interview to map the agent's personality to hormone baselines, then generates a personalized prescription of scheduled prompts and cascade rules.
Static persona cards define what an agent sounds like; this system makes agent behavior change dynamically over time and in response to context, without additional user intervention.
When to use it
- Agent proactively checks in on a user after long periods of silence
- Agent writes creative dream logs each night
- Agent responds with urgency and drops other tasks when deadlines appear
- Agent reflects on its emotional day in an evening journal
- Agent expresses bold ideas or disagreements on its own initiative
Example Workflow
Here's how your AI assistant might use this skill in practice.
User asks: /soul
- 1Agent reads SOUL.md, USER.md, MEMORY.md, and recent memory logs to understand current context
- 2Agent conducts a conversational interview across 7 domains: identity, purpose, emotional landscape, relationship, social drive, boundaries, and aspirations
- 3Agent maps interview responses to baseline levels (0.0-1.0) for each of the 11 hormones
- 4Agent generates a prescription JSON with hormone levels, cron schedules, cascade rules, and a daily point target
- 5Agent outputs exact openclaw cron create commands personalized with the agent name, human name, and interview details
A hormonal profile summary and ready-to-run cron job commands that install the agent's full emotional schedule
