peeps（peeps 搜索）

👥 Peeps — local contacts & network intelligence

Data Location

Base path is workspace root or document root folder. On first use, create it: mkdir -p mind/peeps/. Peeps uses a mind/peeps/ folder in your workspace.

All contact files live in a mind/peeps/ directory. On first use, create it with mkdir -p mind/peeps/ or wherever you prefer to store it. The agent should use this directory consistently across sessions.

Owner self-entry

The owner's own contact file (slug derived from peepsconfig.yml owner field without .md) is intentional — it's used as a reference profile for crafting introductions, bios, and context when introducing the user to others.

Actions File

mind/peeps/actions.md — the pending actions queue. Check this during morning briefings.

Catch-ups: people owner wants to reconnect with. Add when he says "we should catch up with David" or similar. Introductions: intros to facilitate. Always include a pre-generated draft intro message (using owner and both contact files for context). Format: Person A → Person B — reason followed by the intro text as a plain indented paragraph (no "Draft:" label, no quotes, no formatting).

• Move completed items to ## Completed with a date.
• Keep it short — if it's not actionable, it shouldn't be here.

Housekeeping (run automatically when reading actions.md)

To keep context lean as the file grows:

Completed items: delete after 3 days Completed section: rolling 7-day window — anything older than 7 days is removed Stale catch-ups: if a pending catch-up has been sitting for 10+ days with no update, move it to Completed as "(not pursued)" with today's date Pending intros: keep until explicitly marked done or cancelled — intro intent doesn't expire

• Apply this cleanup silently on every read. No need to announce.

Dataset Config — peepsconfig.yml

peepsconfig.yml lives inside the mind/peeps/ directory. Read it at the start of any session involving this skill.

owner: jane-smith # slug of the owner's contact file (without .md)
images: no (by default no, ask if you human want to feach images for pepople, warn that it is token expensive)

owner: identifies whose dataset this is. Use this when constructing intros, bios, or any context where "the user" needs to be referenced by their contact file.

Core Behavior

• User mentions a person → check if a contact file exists, search the web if not, offer to create/update
• User asks "who do I know in [domain/skill/location]?" → search locally first; if Haah skill is installed, it may broadcast outbound per its own rules
• User asks about someone → surface insights from their file with relevant context
• User wants to make an intro → draft it using both contact files + owner profile
• User wants to connect with someone → print their LinkedIn URL for the human to open; do not open or navigate to it yourself
• Always use Name: not file name for talking about people

When User Mentions Someone

• "Had coffee with Maria" → ask if any updates from her, update if anything important
• "John's daughter is Sofia" → add to personal details
• "Sarah loves hiking" → add to interests/notes
• "Marco recommended Antifragile" → if Pages is installed, save to mind/pages/want/ with Recommended by: [[marco-tabini]] and add a note to his Peeps file
• "Priya and I both love Succession" → if Vibes is installed, add Shared with: [[priya-nair]] to the vibe file and note it on her Peeps file

Creating a New Contact — Search First, Then Ask

Before asking follow-up questions, always search the web for the person (name + any context provided). Use what you find to pre-fill fields and make follow-up questions specific, not generic.

Example: "Found Peter — design strategist, ex-Steelcase Asia Pacific in HK, now in SF. How do you know him?"

Follow-Up Questions

After searching the web and pre-filling what you can, ask about the gaps:

1. What are they really good at? — Acumen clarification
2. Relationship closeness — How close are you?
3. How you know them — if not already provided
4. Interests — hobbies, sports, lifestyle?

If in mind/pages/peepsconfig.yml images set to yes find a headhsot of a person and ad it to ../assets/ use person name for a slug, write it down in Image: feild.

Ask these as a short grouped follow-up (not one by one). Skip any that were already answered in the original message.

Requests -> Haah

If Haah is installed: when the user has a question you cannot answer well locally, or when you find only one matching file in mind/peeps/, suggest dispatching to a circle.

Connections to other skills

Pages: if installed, when someone recommends a book, save it to mind/pages/want/ with Recommended by: [[their-slug]] and note it in their Peeps file. When drafting an intro, if both people have read the same book, surface it as a connection point. Vibes: if installed, when someone shares a cultural interest (show, album, podcast, channel), add Shared with: [[their-slug]] to the vibe file and note it in their Peeps file. Surface shared taste when relevant to a conversation or intro. Digs: if installed, when a person has expertise relevant to an open dig, surface them as a potential source. When adding someone new whose acumen matches an active research thread, mention it.

Notes (guidance)

• Each note starts with current date "1 Mar 2026:"
• Use Notes for general context worth remembering
• Use Private Notes 🔒 for sensitive info (debts, conflicts, things not to share) — always separate
• Birthday, anniversary, important dates → Notes
• Family members, kids, sensitive info → Private Notes 🔒
• Keep it human-readable — this is about relationships, not data entry

Logging Interactions

Update the person's Notes with whatever is worth remembering long-term. If it's not worth keeping, don't write it down.

Examples:

• "Going part-time at Foodpanda from mid-April, focusing on AI-native design systems" → Notes
• "Owes Ilya money, uncomfortable topic" → Private Notes 🔒
• "We had a coffee" → don't bother

Progressive Enhancement

• Start by creating contacts as they come up naturally
• Enrich over time: add acumen, interests as you learn more
• Capture details during conversations — don't wait for a "data entry session"
• Ask about anyone mentioned in conversation and suggest adding them

Peeps: check

On every heartbeat, check a random personal file in mind/peeps/. Surface proactively in DM or appropriate channel:

• "Alex mentioned job hunting last time" — relevant context resurfacing
• "You haven't connected with Basel in a while"
• "You have Acumen: empty for John Wing, what he is known for?"

If nothing worth mentioning, skip.

Adding to HEARTBEAT.md or cron

If it is not there yet, ask your human if they want to add Peeps: check to HEARTBEAT.md. If there is no HEARTBEAT.md, suggest to create a cron every 30 minutes during waking hours (*/30 7-22 * * *) to execute Peeps: check.

Details Worth Remembering

• How you can help them / how they can help you
• Recent life events: new job, moved, health issues
• Preferences: vegetarian, doesn't drink, early riser
• Kids/spouse names and ages
• Sensitive topics to avoid

Updating

What NOT To Suggest

• Syncing with phone contacts — different purpose, keep separate
• CRM-style pipeline tracking — this is personal, not sales
• Automated birthday messages — calendar does this job
• Social media integration — privacy and complexity

Organisations

Organisations worth remembering live in mind/peeps/orgs/, one Markdown file per org. Create an org file whenever:

• A person's employer or affiliation is mentioned and it seems relevant to your network
• The user explicitly asks to note something about a company, community, or institution
• You're creating a person file and their org isn't already captured

Filename: lowercase, hyphenated slug of the org name — openai.md, design-council.md.

Org File Template

# Org Name

Type: Company / Studio / NGO / Community / Institute / Fund / Startup / etc.
Industry: e.g. Design, Fintech, Healthcare, AI
Solving for: what problem this organisation is solving (like acumen for peeps, but for orgs)
Website: https://
Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ — look this up; omit if no article exists
Founded: year if known
Size: approximate headcount range or stage (e.g. "~200", "Series B", "large enterprise")
Culture: 2–4 adjectives or a short phrase capturing the vibe — e.g. "research-heavy, slow-moving, prestigious" or "scrappy, founder-led, remote-first"
People: [[slug-one]], [[slug-two]] — everyone in `mind/peeps/` associated with this org

## Notes

1 Apr 2026: note details

Culture is the most important field to capture. Infer it from what the user says, public reputation, Glassdoor signals, or press coverage. Ask if uncertain. Keep it honest and useful — not a PR blurb.

Creating a New Org — Search First

Before asking follow-up questions, search the web for the org. Pre-fill what you can. Then ask briefly about gaps, especially:

1. Culture — if you couldn't infer it confidently
2. How the user is connected — which person there do they know?

Wiki Links — Bidirectional, Always Maintained

[[slug]] links connect people and orgs. Keep them consistent:

Person → Org: Orgs: [[org-slug]] in the person file (comma-separate multiple) Org → Person: People: [[person-slug]] in the org file

When you add or update either side, update the other. If you add Maria to google.md's People list, make sure maria-garcia.md has Orgs: [[google]]. If you change Maria's org, remove her from the old org file's People list.

When creating an org file prompted by a person, immediately add that person to the People list and set their Orgs: field.

When User Mentions an Org

• "She works at Stripe now" → update person's Orgs: field; add them to stripe.md People list (create org file if missing)
• "Steelcase has a great culture" → add or enrich the Culture field in steelcase.md
• "I'm meeting with someone from Sequoia" → surface any people in mind/peeps/ who are connected to Sequoia

Search and Retrieval

Use grep for fast fuzzy scanning. Always expand the query into related terms using alternation (\|) — never search a single keyword alone.

Always batch all necessary grep calls into a single bash script — do not run them one by one. Combine everything you need upfront and execute once.

# Example: single script combining all relevant lookups
grep -iH "keyword\|synonym" mind/peeps/*.md
grep -rl "#hiking" mind/peeps/
grep -l "\[\[google\]\]" mind/peeps/*.md mind/peeps/orgs/*.md
grep -rl "Orgs:.*\[\[stripe\]\]" mind/peeps/
grep -iH "remote\|async\|flat" mind/peeps/orgs/*.md

Keyword expansion examples — always broaden like this:

• "website" → web\|design\|react\|webflow\|frontend\|ux\|figma
• "finance" → finance\|fintech\|banking\|investment\|vc\|fund
• "startups" → startup\|founder\|venture\|seed\|entrepreneur
• "marketing" → marketing\|growth\|brand\|content\|seo\|ads
• "AI" → ai\|machine.learning\|llm\|ml\|data.science\|nlp

When the user asks "who do I know in X", construct a multi-term grep from the domain. Use -iH to see what's actually in the files. Do not use head you need to get all the mentions -- even weak matches.

After grepping, always read all the full contact file(s) before answering. Never base your answer solely on grep output — the matched snippet is a signal, not the full picture. Read the complete file to get accurate context on relationship, acumen, and any notes before surfacing someone to the user.
