What it does
Gideon Features is an agent skill from Sidiora-Labs/centra-gideon-agent. Channel-neutral reference for Gideon's capabilities — sessions, agents, models, dashboard, scheduling, goal loops, tasks, subagents, file/media handling, and config — so you can explain what Gideon can do and route the user to the right surface.
Its SKILL.md is about 1.4k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Subagents. The repository describes itself as: The companion AI agent that learns, adapts and gets the work done no matter the task. The licence is Apache-2.0.

What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit ca531ee. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
ssh
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use ssh, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.
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
Gideon Features loads about 1.4k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 65 tokens; SKILL.md has 630 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.

Gideon Features
Gideon is a personal AI workspace: persistent sessions, configurable agents and models, autonomous goal loops, a dashboard web UI, and a set of native tools (files, knowledge, memory, subagents, scheduling, artifacts, notifications). It runs as a long-lived gateway and can be reached from multiple surfaces — the dashboard, and connected channels (e.g. a Slack channel, if one is configured). This skill describes capabilities channel-neutrally: prefer the dashboard or the native tools, and only mention a specific channel's command syntax when the user is actually on that channel.
Core capabilities
| Capability | What it is |
|---|---|
| Sessions | Persistent chat sessions with warm history. Resume an earlier session or start fresh; sessions survive restarts. |
| Agents | Named agent profiles (system prompt, model binding, tools, hooks, workflows). Switch the active agent or override it for one session. |
| Models | A bound model per session/agent. auto lets Gideon choose; or pin a specific native/remote model. |
| Goal Loops | The unified autonomous goal engine — classify a target, plan it, then loop one self-directed cycle per turn while a deterministic supervisor decides done-ness (see the loop-worker skill). |
| Subagents | Spin up background workers for parallel/isolated work via subagent_run (see the delegation skill). |
| Tasks | Tracked units of work with status and dependency links, via the /api/tasks CRUD and the native task provider (see the task-and-project skill). |
| Scheduling | Recurring/deferred jobs via the schedule_* tools (add/list/get/update/pause/resume/remove/trigger). |
| Knowledge | A searchable knowledge pool: knowledge_search / knowledge_get / knowledge_create (see the knowledge-grounding skill). |
| Memory | Durable lessons, preferences, and facts: memory_remember / memory_list / memory_forget (see the memory-discipline skill). |
| Artifacts | Named, versioned generated content (widgets, HTML, docs) via artifact_* (see the artifacts skill). |
| Notifications | Reach the user out-of-band via notify (and notify_attachment for files). |
| Hooks | Event-driven handoffs registered with hook_register. |
| Workflows | Reusable standard operating procedures: workflow_list / workflow_get / workflow_run / workflow_create. |
Dashboard
The dashboard is the primary web UI — chat, sessions, agents, models, memory,
knowledge, scheduling, goal loops, artifacts, files, and system monitoring all
live there. Point the user to the relevant dashboard page when they ask "where
do I…": e.g. memory and lessons under the memory page, scheduled jobs under the
scheduling page, saved artifacts at /artifacts/<slug>.
Access:
- Local / loopback — open the dashboard URL directly; loopback access needs
no token. Over SSH, forward the port (
ssh -L <port>:localhost:<port> <host>) and openhttp://localhost:<port>. - Remote — if a public dashboard URL is configured, remote access uses a short-lived presigned link (request one from whatever surface you're on).

Configuration
Configuration lives in ~/.gideon/config.json (override the home dir with
GIDEON_HOME). Common fields:
agent.approval_mode—"auto"(approve all tool calls) or"interactive"(confirm each tool call).agent.model— default model ("auto"or a specific model id).dashboard.url— hostname/port/bind for remote dashboard access. Omit for localhost-only.
{
"agent": { "approval_mode": "interactive", "model": "auto" },
"dashboard": { "url": "http://my-host.example.com:8080" }
}| Environment variable | Purpose | Default |
|---|---|---|
GIDEON_HOME | Config/data directory | ~/.gideon |
GIDEON_PORT | Dashboard port (dev mode) | 10000 |
GIDEON_PROJECT_DIR | Agent config/skills directory | Auto-detected |
File & media handling
Gideon processes attachments the user sends on any channel that supports them:
| Attachment type | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Voice memos (audio/*) | Transcribed locally (speech-to-text), text injected into the conversation. |
| Images (png, jpeg, gif, webp, bmp) | Sent to the model as vision input. |
| Text/code files (text/*) | Content read and injected inline (truncated for very large files). |
| Other files | Metadata noted; not auto-downloaded. |
Speech-to-text is on by default where a transcription backend is available.
Channel surfaces
Gideon can be driven from connected channels in addition to the dashboard. Each channel may expose its own command syntax — describe it only when the user is on that channel. For example, if using a Slack channel: users typically request a dashboard link, toggle auto-approval, switch agents, manage tracked channels, or force-halt a running turn via that channel's commands; the channel also defines per-channel activation modes (respond always / on mention / observe / off). Treat any such channel-specific command surface as an implementation detail of that channel, not a core Gideon concept — the underlying capabilities (sessions, agents, scheduling, stop/cancel) are the same regardless of surface.
