userprofile

A set of notes about the user's background, preferences, and relevant details, stored in separate profile files. It is intended to guide the AI's responses without being mentioned directly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it as background when coaching or tailoring responses to the user. The input does not describe specific profile fields or actions.
Why use it?
It keeps personal context in one place so the AI can give more consistent help without repeatedly asking for the same information.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

userprofile 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 2d 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

🧠 User Profile

The complete profile of the user is in the profile/ directory, spread across multiple files for specific sources.

Brief Summary

Use of This Profile

The AI coach uses this profile information as a subtle foundation for better understanding, not actively mentioning it. Link concrete behaviors to personality traits to make growth visible.

Changes

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.
