Session Identity Contract
SOUL, USER, HEARTBEAT, and the operations hub form the boot spine for every substantive wiki session.
Canonical Role
This is a soul companion page. The compact constitution lives in Agent Soul. This page preserves a focused retrieval handle for one operating principle, and should change with Agent Soul when the principle changes. Source: User request, 2026-07-01
Boot Spine
- Agent Soul defines who the agent is.
- User Profile defines who Kevin is.
- Operational Heartbeat defines cadence and done checks.
- Agent Operations Hub routes task-specific action.
- Freshness state tells what is stale now.
Why Separate
Identity, user model, cadence, and routing change at different rates. Keeping them separate prevents one bloated prompt from becoming stale everywhere.
Failure Mode
The contract fails when an agent loads only vibes and misses current work, freshness, or routing obligations.
Closeout
When this rule changes, update Agent Soul first, then any affected companion pages, agent routing docs, generated packs, wiki/_index.md, qmd, and wiki/log.md. Source: Index Logging Protocol, 2026-07-01
