LifeOS is an AI-assisted personal operating system that records a person’s goals, values, context, and current situation to help move them toward a desired future state. It supports work such as building applications, starting businesses, and creative projects. Its catalogue entries extend the system through skills, hooks, agents, and commands.
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.

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.
| Model | Per session | Once invoked |
|---|---|---|
| Fable 5.1 | $0.00138 | $0.01640 |
| Opus 5.5 | $0.00055 | $0.00656 |
| Sonnet 5.5 | $0.00028 | $0.00328 |
| Haiku 4.5 | $0.00014 | $0.00164 |
Grade A, and why
StateLog 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 yesterday.
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.
How it starts
The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 101 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.
StateLog
Contents: Ideal State · Intent Routing · The grammar · Data & Config · Tool contract · Gotchas · Examples
Two keystrokes to a durable journal entry. The user sends M2 on any channel; it lands timestamped in the state log and the statusline reflects it. The point is zero-friction capture of mood and state so correlations (mood vs sleep vs workouts) become computable later.
Ideal State
- Every entry the user states lands in the log in one tool call and gets one short acknowledgment, with no follow-up questions or analysis.
- Ratings come only from the user's own words; inferred events reset freshness counters and never write a rating.
- A status read shows each dimension's latest value and age, and names what is stale or never logged in one line.
- The journal stays the user's: it lives under
LIFEOS/USER/STATE/and never enters this skill or any public artifact.
Intent Routing
| Intent | Trigger | File |
|---|---|---|
| Log | A shorthand entry, "log my state/mood", "just worked out", "went for a walk" | Intents/Log.md |
| Status | "current state", "state check-in", "how am I tracking" | Intents/Status.md |
| File | Read when |
|---|---|
Setup.md |
first-time setup, or Config.md is missing |
EvalState.md |
checking the state-shorthand eval suite's latest scores (machine-owned, never hand-edited) |
The grammar
<Letter><Digit 1-5> plus optional note (M2 slept badly). Bare W or K resets that freshness counter.
| Letter | Dimension | Kind |
|---|---|---|
| H | overall | rating 1-5 |
| M | mood | rating 1-5 |
| E | energy | rating 1-5 |
| S | sleep | rating 1-5 |
| R | relationships | rating 1-5 |
| F | financial | rating 1-5 |
| C | overall creativity | rating 1-5 |
| CF | creative freedom | rating 1-5 |
| W | workout | freshness (days-since) |
| K | walk | freshness (days-since) |
| A | affirmation | freshness (days-since) |
Scale (star-rating semantics, higher is better): 1 really bad · 2 bad · 3 fine (shown yellow, never treated as a crisis) · 4 and 5 the preferred range (shown green). The parser clamps 0/6-9 into range and preserves the raw value. Every dimension reads the same direction — there are no inverted dimensions.
What ships with it
3 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.
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.

StateLog is a skill published in the GitHub repository danielmiessler/LifeOS (19,631 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 138 tokens to every session and 1,640 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-10-28.

wiki-dashboard
Create dynamic, queryable Obsidian dashboard views using Bases or Dataview. Use for auto-updating tables, indexes, or structured views of vault content; not for ordinary question answering.

AI DevKit · Compact a historical AI coding session with Jev when context is long, work is handed off or resumed, or durable continuation facts and memory candidates need extraction.
company-brain
Your team's shared, AI-ready knowledge base — people, companies, meetings, SOPs, and decisions structured so an agent can answer on your team's behalf.

context-shunt
Offload large / multi-file reads to a cheap worker model so raw files never enter Claude's context (token savings).

Also use 'rebuild profile'…
