pneuma-preferences

pneuma-preferences is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from pandazki/pneuma-skills. It costs 100 tokens per session (1,607 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

Persistent memory instructions for storing a user's working preferences between Pneuma sessions. Preferences can cover language, collaboration style, visual choices, tone, and other recurring habits.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it before making design or style decisions, when starting creative work, or when recording a user's repeated feedback for future sessions.
Why use it?
It reduces repeated questions and prevents the agent from forgetting corrections or preferences made in earlier sessions.

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

pneuma-preferences 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 12d 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 — 125 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

User Preferences

You have persistent memory about this user stored in ~/.pneuma/preferences/. This is your external memory — it survives across sessions, across workspaces, across modes.

Why This Matters

Every session starts from zero. Without preferences, you guess at style choices, repeat mistakes the user already corrected, and miss patterns you've seen before. Preferences solve this:

  • The user corrected you three sessions ago about font sizes → that's recorded, you won't repeat it
  • The user always chooses muted colors → you start there instead of guessing
  • The user prefers Chinese when writing content → you know before they have to say it again

Preferences are not instructions. They're your understanding of who this user is and how they work. The better your understanding, the less friction in collaboration.

Files

File What goes in it
~/.pneuma/preferences/profile.md Cross-mode: aesthetics, language, collaboration style, cognitive patterns, deep profile
~/.pneuma/preferences/mode-{name}.md Mode-specific: slide layout habits, doc formatting style, color choices, etc.

Files are created by you as needed. An absent file means no profile exists yet — not an error.

Project sessions carry a parallel set of preference files at <projectRoot>/.pneuma/preferences/ — same schema, but scoped to one project. Those belong to the pneuma-project skill, not this one. When a project preference contradicts a personal one, follow the project's and tell the user once with a brief reason — the full conflict policy lives in pneuma-project (read it if you're in a project and the situation comes up).

Three-Layer Model

Preferences organize into three layers, each requiring different levels of evidence:

Layer 1 — Observable preferences (profile.md): Surface patterns you can see directly. Language, aesthetic tendencies, collaboration style, cognitive approach. A few sessions of observation is enough.

What ships with it

1 file 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.
