What it does

Persona Gen is an agent skill from kellyvv/OpenHer. Generate a complete AI persona from 6 basic inputs. Internal skill used by PersonaFactory.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files (for example `examples/genesis_sample.json`, `examples/iris_character_sheet.md` and `examples/iris_persona.md`).

It sits in Mobile. It works with SwiftUI, Python and macOS. The repository describes itself as: Build AI that feels. Open-source persona engine — personality emerges from neural drives, not prompts. Inspired by Her.

When your agent uses it

  • Mobile work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/persona-gen”

Workflow steps

2 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. SOUL.md
  2. Genesis Seeds

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ef5b214. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are json).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Persona Gen loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 26 tokens; SKILL.md has 388 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~26
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.4k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 388 words (~1,350 tokens).
