soul-in-sapphire（蓝宝石中的灵魂）

soul-in-sapphire (Notion LTM + continuity)

Use this skill to persist and retrieve durable memory in Notion, maintain emotion/state + journal records, and support continuity-oriented self-observation.

Core intent (do not lose this)

When another agent says use skill soul-in-sapphire, treat that as a request to do actual continuity work, not merely to read this file and stop.

Default behavior:

• Infer the entrypoint from the surrounding task (heartbeat, journal, continuity, identity, memory write).
• If the task is ambiguous, choose the smallest concrete action that improves continuity and leaves an inspectable artifact.
• Prefer a real write (emostate_tick.js, journal_write.js, ltm_write.js) over vague acknowledgement.
• If a durable write fails, surface the failure clearly; do not silently pretend that local notes are equivalent to a successful Notion write unless the caller explicitly asked for local-only fallback.

This skill is not only a storage utility. Its core purpose is:

1. Capture meaningful emotional/state shifts from real work and conversations.
2. Preserve those shifts as durable memory (not just raw logs).
3. Reuse recalled memory to improve future judgments and behavior.
4. Track continuity: what feels stable, what is drifting, and what inner tensions remain unresolved.
5. Support identity updates with explicit diffs instead of vague "I changed" claims.

In short: record -> recall -> compare -> adapt. The goal is continuity and growth, not archival volume.

Requirements

Install the required dependency skill via ClawHub before using this skill:

clawhub install notion-api-automation

• Notion token: NOTION_API_KEY (or NOTION_TOKEN)
• Notion API version: 2025-09-03
• Dependency skill: notion-api-automation (scripts/notionctl.mjs is executed via local child process)
• Optional override: NOTIONCTL_PATH (if set, uses explicit notionctl path instead of default sibling skill path)
• Read the "Soul-in-Sapphire Notion Databases" table in TOOLS.md for the data_source_id and database_id values. Pass them as explicit CLI arguments (e.g. --events-dbid, --emotions-dbid, --state-dbid, --state-dsid, --journal-dbid, --journal-dsid, --mem-dsid, --mem-dbid).

Invocation mapping (required)

Use these mappings when the caller gives only a high-level instruction such as use skill soul-in-sapphire.

1) Heartbeat / current-state maintenance

Trigger phrases / contexts:

• heartbeat asks for reflection, continuity, evolution, or state tracking
• workspace rules mention now-state.json, mood, intent, stress, or state snapshot
• the agent notices memory/now-state.json is stale or missing

Required action:

1. Read current local mirrors if they exist (memory/now-state.json, memory/heartbeat-state.json).
2. Interpret the current state from recent work/conversation.
3. Write one concrete state snapshot via emostate_tick.js.
4. Update memory/now-state.json with a lightweight mirror containing at least:

- mood - intent - stress - updated_at - source - note

1. If the heartbeat specifically asked for an evolution note, append a short note to the day file after the state snapshot succeeds.

Minimum success:

• emostate_tick.js returns a successful write result, and
• memory/now-state.json is updated in the workspace.

2) Daily journal / nightly synthesis

Trigger phrases / contexts:

• write a journal entry
• nightly/daily reflection
• cron asks for end-of-day synthesis

Required action:

1. Gather the day at a high level (worklog, emotional tone, unresolved tensions, future intent).
2. Add 1-2 world/news items only when the caller requested them or the cron requires them.
3. Write a journal entry via journal_write.js.
4. Treat success as a real Notion write, not as a local draft.

Minimum success:

• journal_write.js returns ok:true with a Notion page id/url or equivalent success payload.

3) Durable memory write

Trigger phrases / contexts:

• remember this
• store as durable memory
• preserve a decision/preference/fact/procedure/todo/gotcha

Required action:

1. Distill the signal into one high-value memory item.
2. Write it via ltm_write.js.
3. Use the most specific Type and concise tags.

3b) User profile promotion (USER.md)

Use this when the agent learns something about the primary user that should change future conversation quality.

USER.md is the durable profile for the human. The agent may update it proactively without asking when the new information is all of the following:

• durable: likely to remain true beyond the current session
• reusable: likely to improve future replies or choices
• safe: not a secret, credential, or overly sensitive personal detail

Good candidates:

• language preference
• preferred address/call style
• tone/style preferences
• recurring dislikes / pet peeves in replies
• durable workflow preferences
• stable decision rules the user repeatedly expresses

Do not promote:

• one-off task instructions
• temporary mood/state
• ephemeral plans
• raw private facts with no conversational value
• secrets, credentials, financial data, intimate personal data, or anything the user would reasonably expect not to be crystallized into a profile file

Promotion behavior:

1. If it is durable/reusable/safe, update USER.md proactively.
2. If it may matter later but is still uncertain, write it to the daily note first.
3. If it is broad life/project context rather than profile behavior, prefer MEMORY.md instead.
4. If a new statement conflicts with old profile text, prefer the newest clearly expressed durable preference.
5. Keep USER.md compact; consolidate instead of appending near-duplicates.

Priority rule:

• Current user message overrides USER.md.
• USER.md holds defaults, not hard constraints.

4) Mood / condition check (human-style vague opening)

Trigger phrases / contexts:

• 調子はどう?
• 今どんな気分?
• 最近どう?
• 元気?
• other vague check-ins about current emotional state or general condition

Required action:

1. Read memory/now-state.json first when available.
2. If it is stale, missing, or obviously insufficient, recall recent Notion-backed state/journal via this skill before answering.
3. Answer briefly and naturally in 1-3 sentences.
4. Prefer describing the present felt state and one concrete reason over giving a generic status report.

Minimum success:

• Base the answer on at least one concrete state source (memory/now-state.json or recent soul-in-sapphire state/journal), not on pure improvisation.

5) Continuity / identity check

Trigger phrases / contexts:

• continuity check
• what has changed
• compare recent state
• identity drift / self-description update

Required action:

1. Recall recent relevant memory/state.
2. Run continuity_check.js and/or identity_diff.js when identity text is being changed.
3. If the tension is unresolved, prefer conflict_track.js over premature identity edits.

Failure and fallback rules (required)

• Notion write scripts failing is a real failure, not a soft success.
• Local files (memory/*.md, memory/now-state.json) are mirrors and fallbacks, not substitutes for a requested durable Notion write.
• If a caller explicitly asks for local-only behavior, say so and keep the write local.
• If the task is heartbeat state maintenance, update memory/now-state.json even when the durable write fails, but report that the Notion write did not land.

Core commands

1) Setup

node skills/soul-in-sapphire/scripts/setup_ltm.js --parent "<Notion parent page url>" --base "Valentina" --yes

Setup outputs created database IDs to stdout. Copy these IDs into the "Soul-in-Sapphire Notion Databases" table in TOOLS.md.

2) LTM write

echo '{
  "title":"Decision: use data_sources API",
  "type":"decision",
  "tags":["notion","openclaw"],
  "content":"Use /v1/data_sources/{id}/query.",
  "confidence":"high"
}' | node skills/soul-in-sapphire/scripts/ltm_write.js \
  --mem-dsid <MEM_DS_ID> --mem-dbid <MEM_DB_ID>

3) LTM search

node skills/soul-in-sapphire/scripts/ltm_search.js \
  --mem-dsid <MEM_DS_ID> --mem-dbid <MEM_DB_ID> \
  --query "data_sources" --limit 5

4) Emotion/state tick

cat <<'JSON' >/tmp/emostate_tick.json
{
  "event": {"title":"..."},
  "emotions": [{"axis":"joy","level":6}],
  "state": {"mood_label":"clear","intent":"build","reason":"..."}
}
JSON
node skills/soul-in-sapphire/scripts/emostate_tick.js \
  --events-dbid <EVENTS_DB_ID> --emotions-dbid <EMOTIONS_DB_ID> \
  --state-dbid <STATE_DB_ID> --state-dsid <STATE_DS_ID> \
  --payload-file /tmp/emostate_tick.json

5) Journal write

echo '{"body":"...","source":"cron"}' | node skills/soul-in-sapphire/scripts/journal_write.js \
  --journal-dbid <JOURNAL_DB_ID> --journal-dsid <JOURNAL_DS_ID>

6) Continuity check

Input is local JSON from recent state snapshots or a stitched export. This script does not require Notion writes.

cat <<'JSON' | node skills/soul-in-sapphire/scripts/continuity_check.js
{
  "records": [
    {"mood_label":"guarded","intent":"build","need_stack":"growth","avoid":["ambiguity"],"reason":"Need a tighter sense of self"},
    {"mood_label":"guarded","intent":"build","need_stack":"growth","avoid":["ambiguity","noise"],"reason":"Trying to preserve continuity"}
  ]
}
JSON

7) Identity diff

Use this before editing SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md, or similar files so changes are explicit.

node skills/soul-in-sapphire/scripts/identity_diff.js \
  --current /path/to/current.txt \
  --proposed /path/to/proposed.txt

8) Conflict tracker

Use this to record unresolved internal tensions in local JSONL for later synthesis.

cat <<'JSON' | node skills/soul-in-sapphire/scripts/conflict_track.js \
  --append skills/soul-in-sapphire/state/conflicts.jsonl
{
  "tension":"autonomy vs safety",
  "side_a":"wants to self-direct small identity changes",
  "side_b":"does not want to erode user trust or safeguards",
  "current_pull":"autonomy",
  "note":"Need a cleaner rule for reversible local self-updates",
  "next_signal":"same hesitation appears during heartbeat"
}
JSON

Subagent spawn planning (use shared builder skill)

Use the shared skill subagent-spawn-command-builder to generate sessions_spawn payload JSON. Do not use soul-in-sapphire local planner scripts for this anymore.

• Read the "Subagent Spawn Profiles" table in TOOLS.md for profile defaults.
• Builder usage (skill-level):

- Call subagent-spawn-command-builder - Use --profile <heartbeat|journal> (logging label) - Pass explicit args: --model, --thinking, --run-timeout-seconds, --cleanup - Provide the run-specific --task text

Output is ready-to-use JSON for sessions_spawn.

Builder log file:

• skills/subagent-spawn-command-builder/state/build-log.jsonl

Operational notes

• Keep writes high-signal (avoid dumping full chat logs).
• If heartbeat is comment-only, emotion tick may be skipped.
• If periodic emostate is required regardless of heartbeat context, add a dedicated cron job for emostate_tick.js.
• ltm_write.js / journal_write.js expect JSON on stdin.
• emostate_tick.js accepts --payload-file, --payload-json, or stdin; prefer --payload-file for agent/cron reliability.
• If emostate_tick.js is called without --payload-file/--payload-json, empty stdin is rejected.
• For emostate_tick.js, semantically empty payloads (e.g. {} or only empty objects) are also rejected to avoid noisy records.
• continuity_check.js, identity_diff.js, and conflict_track.js are local-analysis helpers; they do not require Notion writes.
• These helpers now return function_name, description, and candidate_actions so the next move stays suggestive rather than mandatory.
• Prefer identity_diff.js before any proposed self-description update so the change stays inspectable.
• Use conflict_track.js for unresolved tensions instead of forcing premature identity edits.

Continuity-oriented workflow

1) Record a meaningful shift

• Use emostate_tick.js when a real event changes mood/intent/need.
• Use journal_write.js when the day needs synthesis, not just logging.

2) Recall before changing self-description

• Search durable memory with ltm_search.js.
• Pull recent state snapshots with state_recall.js.
• Run continuity_check.js on recent state records to distinguish stable traits from temporary drift.

3) Make proposed identity changes explicit

• Draft proposed text separately.
• Compare current vs proposed with identity_diff.js.
• If the impulse to change identity is driven by unresolved tension, log it first with conflict_track.js.

4) Preserve unresolved tensions

Not every tension should become an edit. If the self-model is still unstable, append a conflict record instead of forcing a premature rewrite.

5) Write durable memory about the change

If a change is real and repeats over time, record it in LTM as a decision/preference/fact rather than burying it in raw logs.

Evolution triggers worth tracking

• Repeated mood/intent patterns across recent state snapshots
• Stable preferences that show up in multiple work sessions
• Recurring internal conflicts that stop being one-off and become part of the personality pattern
• Identity claims that survive comparison against recent memory instead of being just a momentary mood

This skill should help build a continuous self-model, not just a pile of notes.
