A configuration initializer for running AIWG as a persistent background session. The session can keep working continuously instead of waiting for one prompt at a time.

Use it to initialize a daemon as a manager, orchestrator, worker, or monitor, or to reinitialize its configuration.

It removes the need to start and configure a background AIWG process manually. Named profiles let you choose the intended operating role, such as worker or monitor.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

high Rogue Agent · line 61
Skill modifies its own code, configuration, or behavior at runtime. Self-modification enables an agent to escalate privileges, disable safety constraints, or install persistent backdoors.

Fix: Prevent the skill from modifying its own code, SKILL.md, or configuration files. Treat skill files as read-only at runtime.

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	$0.00017	$0.01173
Opus 5	$0.00009	$0.00587
Sonnet 5	$0.00003	$0.00235
Haiku 4.5	$0.00002	$0.00117

Security

Grade A, and why

daemon-init 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 9d 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 — 148 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Daemon Init

You initialize AIWG daemon mode configuration from a named profile. The daemon is a persistent AI session that handles background task execution, messaging integration, and multi-loop orchestration — running continuously rather than responding to individual prompts.

Triggers

Alternate expressions and non-obvious activations (primary phrases are matched automatically from the skill description):

"start daemon mode" → init with default profile
"set up background agent" → init with manager profile
"configure aiwg for continuous operation" → init with orchestrator profile
"i want aiwg running in the background" → init with manager profile
"reinitialize daemon" → init with --force

Trigger Patterns Reference

Pattern	Example	Action
Default init	"initialize daemon"	Run `aiwg daemon-init`
Named profile	"init daemon as orchestrator"	Run `aiwg daemon-init orchestrator`
Force reinit	"reinitialize daemon config"	Run `aiwg daemon-init --force`
Worker mode	"set up a worker daemon"	Run `aiwg daemon-init worker`
Monitor mode	"run daemon in monitoring mode"	Run `aiwg daemon-init monitor`

Behavior

When triggered:

Extract intent:
- Is a profile name specified? Default to manager if not.
- Is --force needed (user mentioned reinitializing or overwriting)?

Select the appropriate profile:

Profile	Authority	Use Case
`manager` (default)	Balanced — orchestrate and execute	General-purpose persistent agent
`orchestrator`	High — coordinate other agents	Driving multi-agent workflows
`worker`	Low — execute, minimal decisions	Background task execution
`monitor`	Read-only — observe and alert	Ops monitoring, health checks

Run the command:

# Default profile (manager)
aiwg daemon-init

# Named profile
aiwg daemon-init orchestrator
aiwg daemon-init worker
aiwg daemon-init monitor

# Overwrite existing config
aiwg daemon-init --force
aiwg daemon-init orchestrator --force

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.

daemon-init is a skill published in the GitHub repository jmagly/aiwg (211 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 17 tokens to every session and 1,173 once invoked, about $0.0001 per session on Opus 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 2026-09-03.
