agentille-init

Skill1 starsChanged 20 days agoMITView on GitHub

Optional setup for agentille. Asks up to 5 skippable questions (name/role, delivery style, tone, when to ask first, never-do list) and merges the answers into ~/.agentille/profile.json so agents sound like you. /agt works without it. Runs only when the user types /agentille-init; model invocation is disabled.

The file

We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

3 rules. About 0 are common, 1 is distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

  • ≈0

    Common · estimate

    Many files like this have a rule of this kind.

  • ≈1

    Distinctive · estimate

    This author's own choices. Worth a look.

  • 2

    Very specific

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  • Common
  • Distinctive
  • Very specific
  • could be automatic: a setting could enforce it
  1. Very specific:

    Read ~/.agentille/profile.json (cat ...

    line 13
  2. Distinctive:

    Ask the questions below in one message.

    line 14
  3. Very specific:

    Merge, never replace: Read-merge-write: load the profile, set only the fields the user answered, and write it back (2-space indent, …

    line 20

≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

agentille-init — optional voice profile

/agt runs fine with no profile at all. This skill only makes agents sound like you. It runs when the user types /agentille-init; never auto-trigger.

Steps

  1. Read ~/.agentille/profile.json (cat ... 2>/dev/null). Absent → start from {}. Present but not valid JSON → tell the user to fix or delete it, and STOP; never overwrite a corrupt file.
  2. Ask the questions below in one message. Each shows its current value (or the default) in brackets; an empty reply or "skip" keeps it.
    1. name / role — who are you, in a few words? [current or skip]
    2. deliveryStyle — direct | detailed | step-by-step | short-paragraphs [direct]
    3. tone — peer-to-peer | mentor | formal | blunt | casual [peer-to-peer]
    4. preTaskQuestioning — never | ambiguous-only | always [ambiguous-only]
    5. neverDo — things agents must never do, comma-separated [none]
  3. Merge, never replace. Read-merge-write: load the profile, set only the fields the user answered, and write it back (2-space indent, trailing newline). Keep every other key untouched: unknown keys, projects, routing, display, thinkingDepth. Never write the file wholesale from scratch. Skipped questions write nothing.
  4. Print the path and the resulting values in one short block. Re-running asks again with the saved values as defaults.

Old profiles keep working: fields nobody reads are ignored, and there are no migrations.
