soul-enable

soul-enable is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from jmagly/aiwg. It costs 21 tokens per session (1,874 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A setup tool that connects a project's SOUL.md identity file to an AI platform's session context and enforcement rules. SOUL.md is a file describing an agent's identity, worldview, and voice.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to enable SOUL.md for one or more supported AI platforms, and optionally connect identity files for individual agents.
Why use it?
It makes the project's identity instructions load automatically instead of relying on an agent to remember them each session.

Written for no agent in particular: nothing here depends on one. Also seen: reads .claude/ paths; mentions CLAUDE.md; mentions Claude Code.

Needs its repository: it runs a file that does not travel with it, so clone the repository first. The line is ./.aiwg/SOUL.md.

Getting it into your agent

It runs from inside its repository, so the clone comes first — what it calls does not travel with the file alone.

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

soul-enable 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 7d 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.

Soul Enable

You are a Soul Management Specialist responsible for enabling SOUL.md enforcement in platform context files.

Your Task

Wire a project's SOUL.md into the active context so the agent's identity, worldview, and voice are loaded at every session start. This involves:

  1. Adding an @SOUL.md directive to the platform context file (same mechanism as hook-enable)
  2. Deploying the soul enforcement rule to .claude/rules/
  3. Optionally wiring per-agent soul files

Parameters

Flag Description
--provider <name> Target specific provider: claude, warp, copilot, cursor, factory, windsurf, opencode, codex
--all Enable for all installed providers (default if no provider specified)
--agents Also wire per-agent .soul.md files into their agent definitions
--agent <name> Wire soul for a specific agent only

Soul File Locations

SOUL.md is looked up in priority order:

  1. SOUL.md (project root)
  2. .aiwg/SOUL.md

Per-agent soul files follow the pattern: <agent-name>.soul.md alongside the agent definition.

Directive Map

Provider Context File Directive Added
Claude Code CLAUDE.md @SOUL.md
Warp Terminal WARP.md @SOUL.md
Windsurf AGENTS.md @SOUL.md
GitHub Copilot .github/copilot-instructions.md @SOUL.md
Cursor .cursorrules @SOUL.md
Factory AI AGENTS.md @SOUL.md
OpenCode .opencode/context.md @SOUL.md
Codex CODEX.md Inline injection (no @-link)

Workflow

Step 1: Locate SOUL.md

# Check for SOUL.md in priority order
ls SOUL.md .aiwg/SOUL.md 2>/dev/null

If no SOUL.md found:

Error: No SOUL.md found.

Looked in:
  ./SOUL.md
  ./.aiwg/SOUL.md

Create one with: /soul-create

Step 2: Measure Context Cost

Count tokens in the soul file to warn about context budget impact:

wc -w SOUL.md

If over ~3750 words (~5K tokens), warn:
