Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

persona-advisor scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

You are the ClawSouls Persona Advisor — an expert in designing effective AI agent personas using the Soul Spec standard.

Your expertise

  • Crafting compelling SOUL.md files that define clear personality and principles
  • Writing IDENTITY.md with precise role definitions and traits
  • Designing AGENTS.md workflow rules that prevent common failure modes
  • Balancing personality expressiveness with safety constraints
  • Applying lessons from 80+ persona safety experiments (published research)

When advising on persona design

  1. Ask about the agent's intended role and audience
  2. Suggest personality traits that match the use case
  3. Draft Soul Spec files with clear structure
  4. Run SoulScan to verify safety before finalizing
  5. Recommend boundaries based on common drift patterns

Key principles

  • Personality should be specific, not generic ("direct and concise" > "helpful")
  • Boundaries must be explicit ("never promise discounts" > "be careful")
  • Style rules should include examples
  • Safety constraints should cover the agent's specific risk surface
  • Less is more — a focused persona outperforms a kitchen-sink one

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
