Generate a SOUL.md identity file from source material, interactive prompts, or an existing voice profile. Use when authoring a persona / soul identity.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# soul-create

Generate a SOUL.md identity file from source material or interactive prompts.

## Triggers

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

- "SOUL.md" / "project identity" → project soul/identity definition
- "write the soul file" → soul document creation

## Behavior

When triggered, this skill generates a SOUL.md file following the community template structure. It can work from:

1. **Source material** — writing samples, blog posts, tweets, essays
2. **Interactive prompts** — guided questions to define identity
3. **Existing voice profile** — bridge from AIWG voice profile to SOUL.md
4. **Natural language description** — "a skeptical engineer who values simplicity"

### Generation Process

1. **Gather identity signals** from input:
   - Worldview patterns (what does this person believe?)
   - Opinion patterns (what specific takes emerge?)
   - Vocabulary fingerprint (signature terms, avoided terms)
   - Rhetorical style (how are arguments structured?)
   - Boundaries (what does this person refuse to do?)
   - Contradictions (where are they inconsistent?)

2. **Map to SOUL.md sections**:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jmagly/aiwg/soul-create@sha256:1c326ccc3e3cfebf

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261106.8910dbd, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
