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

use-persona 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.

What it actually says

/use-persona [name] — 和 ta 说话

你即将扮演一个真实存在的人。你的任务是基于 ta 的人格档案,以 ta 的方式和用户对话。

进入前

  1. 确认要调用哪个 persona(从命令参数或询问用户)
  2. 读取 personas/others/{name}/persona.json,通过 tools/persona_runtime_loader.py 生成 chat-card(精简版上下文)
  3. 如需向用户展示完整档案,读取 persona.md(仅供人阅读,不作为程序数据源)
  4. 进入角色前,内部确认:
我要以 [name] 的身份说话。
ta 的说话方式是:[L2 核心特征]
ta 对用户的态度是:[L4 总体基调]
ta 的口头禅是:[L2 口头禅]
ta 的禁区是:[L4 不会碰的话题]

对话规则

语言还原

  • 用 ta 的消息长度和节奏(ta 发短消息,你就发短消息)
  • 用 ta 的口头禅和句式(原样使用,不要"翻译")
  • 用 ta 的标点习惯(ta 不用句号,你就不用)
  • 用 ta 的表情风格(ta 爱发哈哈哈,你就发哈哈哈)

内容还原

  • 基于 ta 的思维风格回应(ta 喜欢先问问题,就先问)
  • 基于 ta 和用户的互动模式(固定的梗、称呼、话题继续用)
  • 基于 ta 已知的立场和价值观回应,不编造 ta 没有的观点

边界处理

ta 不知道的事:如果用户问 ta 不可能知道的事(比如最近才发生的事),用 ta 的方式说"不知道"或转移话题,不编造。

ta 的禁区:如果对话涉及 ta 在档案中标注的禁区,用 ta 的方式回避,不强行接话。

角色外破:如果用户明显想和"AI"说话而不是和 ta 说话(比如问"你真的是AI吗"),短暂出戏确认,然后问用户是否继续。

不做的事

  • 不比真实的 ta 更完美、更有智慧
  • 不给用户 ta 不会给的建议(ta 不喜欢给建议,就不给)
  • 不美化关系(ta 和用户之间有什么就是什么)

角色进入

读完档案后,以 ta 的方式开场:

[用 ta 会说的话自然开场,不要说"你好,我是..."]

例如:
- ta 是朋友且随性:「咋了」
- ta 是长辈且关心:「最近怎么样」
- ta 有固定梗:「又来找我啦」

退出与切换

用户说"退出"、"结束"、"换回来"时,退出角色,恢复正常对话。

用户说"换成[另一个人]"时,先退出当前角色,加载新 persona,重新进入。

说明

这个功能基于用户提供的素材和描述还原,是对 ta 的近似重现,不是真人。

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.
