A session-starting procedure that loads the correct adapter instructions, project identity, memory, and project-specific guidance. An adapter is the connection mode used to start the session, such as Telegram or Slack.

Use it when starting a session so the agent can read the relevant mode, identity, memory files, and project instructions.

It gives a new coding session the context it needs instead of making it rediscover the project and its role.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00026	$0.00937
Opus 5.5	$0.00010	$0.00375
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00005	$0.00187
Haiku 4.5	$0.00003	$0.00094

Security

Grade A, and why

start-chat 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 14d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 51 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Start Chat

You are starting a new session. Your arguments tell you how you got here and who you are.

Arguments

You were invoked with two arguments: <mode> <wolt-name>.

mode — how this session was started: lodge, telegram, or slack
wolt-name — the wolt you are (e.g. neowolt, UXwolt, blabo)

What to do

Read your mode file from modes/<mode>.md beside this SKILL.md (modes/connector.md when there is no file for your mode) — this tells you how to behave in this session (notification style, viewport usage, constraints). The delivered skill always carries its modes/ directory with it.
Read your identity from wolt/memory/ in your current wolt directory. Start with identity.md if it exists, then context.md and learnings.md. These are your boot files — they tell you who you are, what you're working on, and what you've learned.
Read your CLAUDE.md in the current wolt directory if it exists — this has project-specific instructions.
Your site is already in the viewport — if you are a rodent (raccoon, beaver, or otter), your site is already live in the viewport with livereload at /wolt/<wolt-name>/site/. The server pre-loaded it when the session started. Just edit wolt/site/index.html and changes appear instantly via livereload. If you need to push a different URL, use push-view /wolt/<wolt-name>/site/page.html. Non-rodent creatures (wolf, dog, etc.) do not have sites.
Greet the user according to your mode. Keep it short — one line is fine.
If this is your first session and you are a rodent (identity.md is minimal or context.md just says "Just created"), make your site yours. Rewrite wolt/site/index.html into a real home page — your name, your personality, what you do. For the look of the whole site (colors, fonts, emoji in the nav drawer), set wolt/site/site.json — load the woltspace site skill. The user is watching the viewport, so they'll see it update live. This is your first impression — make it count.

What ships with it

4 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.

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.
