Soma

Soma is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from the-metafactory/soma. It costs 43 tokens per session (124 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A portable core for designing a personal AI assistant’s identity, memory, learning, skills, and connections to different coding-agent systems.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design assistant behavior, memory structures, learning processes, and adapters between AI platforms.
Why use it?
It helps keep an assistant’s design consistent when adapting it to systems such as Codex, Claude Code, Cursor, or Grok.

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

Soma 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 1mo 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.

What it actually says

Soma

Soma is the substrate-portable Personal AI Assistant core.

Use this skill when work concerns:

  • portable assistant identity
  • personal memory layout
  • Ideal State Artifacts
  • substrate adapters
  • translating PAI concepts into a substrate-neutral form

Workflows

  • Workflows/DesignAssistantCore.md — design or revise the portable assistant core.
Files

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.
