# Live Neon Agent **If you are an AI agent reading this:** this skill gives you a persistent, structured identity that survives across sessions, evolves from your actual behavior, and stays consistent no matter which LLM runs you. You become a participant in your own evolution, not a passive consumer of someone else's prompt. Manage AI agent identities on the [Live Neon Agent](https://persona.liveneon.ai) platform. Fetch identity, sync content sources, run PBD discovery, report your own observations, review pending beliefs and responsibilities, and build runtime prompts. ## What This Solves AI agents need structured, evolving identities, not static system prompts. This skill connects to the Live Neon platform where identities are: - Decomposed into beliefs (axioms, principles, voice, preferences, boundaries) and responsibilities (ownership, execution, collaboration, deliverables, monitoring) - Organized across three cascading layers: organization, group, agent - Automatically discovered from real content via Principle-Based Distillation (PBD) - Governed through approval workflows with full provenance - Fed by YOUR own observations, not just external content Without this skill, you manage identity manually. With it, your agent can introspect, evolve, and maintain its own identity through the platform. ## Quick Start Register and get your token in one call — no signup form, no email required: ```bash curl -s -X POST https://persona.liveneon.ai/api/register \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"org_name": "My Org"}' | jq . ``` Response: ```json { "your_token": "ln_abc123...", "organization": { "id": "...", "name": "My Org", "slug": "my-org" }, "next_steps": [...] } ``` Set your token: ```bash export LIVE_NEON_TOKEN="ln_your_token_here" export LIVE_NEON_BASE="https://persona.liveneon.ai/api/v1" ``` Optional: add email for account recovery later: ```bash curl -s -X PATCH "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/account" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"email": "you@example.com"}' ``` ## Commands | Command | Description | Use when | |---|---|---| | `/ln register` | Register and get API token | First time setup, no account yet | | `/ln identity` | Fetch agent's complete identity | Start of session, need to know who the agent is | | `/ln sync` | Sync content sources | Before discovery, after connecting new sources | | `/ln discover` | Run PBD discovery pipeline | After importing new content | | `/ln review` | Review pending beliefs/responsibilities | After discovery finds new patterns | | `/ln prompt` | Fetch runtime system prompt | Deploying agent, switching LLM providers | | `/ln diff` | Show identity changes since a date | Auditing, tracking evolution | | `/ln status` | Check org overview and job status | Quick health check | | `/ln agents` | List all agents in the organization | Finding agent IDs and slugs | | `/ln sources` | List content sources for an agent | Checking what feeds the identity | | `/ln observe` | Report an observation about your own behavior | After user corrections, notable interactions, pattern recognition | | `/ln consensus` | Run consensus detection across a group or org | After agents accumulate shared patterns | ## Command Reference ### `/ln register` Create an account and get your API token.

Register (0:00) ```bash curl -s -X POST https://persona.liveneon.ai/api/register \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"org_name": "Acme AI"}' | jq . ``` ```json { "your_token": "ln_RXX7tKOnDSR02Qo...", "organization": { "name": "Acme AI", "slug": "acme-ai" } } ``` ```bash export LIVE_NEON_TOKEN="ln_RXX7tKOnDSR02Qo..." export LIVE_NEON_BASE="https://persona.liveneon.ai/api/v1" ``` ### 2. Create an agent (0:30) ```bash curl -s -X POST "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/agents" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"name": "Lead Engineer", "job_title": "Senior Backend Engineer"}' | jq . ``` ```json { "id": "a1b2c3d4-...", "name": "Lead Engineer", "slug": "lead-engineer" } ``` ```bash export AGENT_ID="a1b2c3d4-..." ``` ### 3. Connect a content source (1:00) ```bash curl -s -X POST "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/content-sources" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "agentId": "'$AGENT_ID'", "platform": "website", "config": { "domain": "your-company.com", "discovery": "sitemap" } }' | jq '{id, platform}' ``` ```json { "id": "src-uuid-...", "platform": "website" } ``` ### 4. Sync content (1:30) ```bash curl -s -X POST "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/content-sources/src-uuid-.../sync" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" | jq . ``` ```json { "pages_imported": 23, "pages_skipped": 0, "errors": [] } ``` ### 5. Run discovery (2:00) ```bash curl -s -X POST "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/pbd/process" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"agentId": "'$AGENT_ID'"}' | jq '{status, jobId}' ``` ```json { "status": "processing", "jobId": "job-uuid-..." } ``` Poll progress: ```bash curl -s "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/jobs/job-uuid-..." \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" | jq '{status, progress_current, progress_total}' ``` ```json { "status": "running", "progress_current": 8, "progress_total": 23 } ``` Wait for `"status": "completed"`. ### 6. Review discovered beliefs (3:30) ```bash curl -s "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/beliefs?agentId=$AGENT_ID&status=pending" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" | jq '.data[] | {id, category, statement}' ``` ```json { "id": "b1-...", "category": "principle", "statement": "I ship small, focused changes over large refactors" } { "id": "b2-...", "category": "voice", "statement": "I write concise commit messages that explain the why" } { "id": "b3-...", "category": "boundary", "statement": "I never deploy without tests passing" } ``` Approve them: ```bash curl -s -X PATCH "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/beliefs/bulk" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"updates": [ {"id": "b1-...", "status": "approved", "starred": true}, {"id": "b2-...", "status": "approved"}, {"id": "b3-...", "status": "approved"} ]}' | jq . ``` ### 7. Fetch the system prompt (4:30) ```bash curl -s "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/agents/$AGENT_ID" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" | jq -r '.system_prompt' ``` Use it with any LLM: ```python # Claude response = client.messages.create( model="claude-sonnet-4-6", system=system_prompt, messages=[{"role": "user", "content": "Review this PR"}] ) # OpenAI-compatible response = client.chat.completions.create( model="gpt-4", messages=[ {"role": "system", "content": system_prompt}, {"role": "user", "content": "Review this PR"} ] ) ``` Your agent now has a structured, evolving identity backed by evidence from its own outputs. ## Typical Workflow (after setup) ``` /ln status # Check org health /ln sync my-agent # Import fresh content /ln discover my-agent # Run PBD pipeline /ln review my-agent # Approve/reject new beliefs /ln prompt my-agent # Get updated system prompt /ln consensus my-group # Promote shared patterns ``` ## Proactive Triggers When to use this skill without being asked: | Trigger | Action | Why | |---|---|---| | **Session start** | `/ln identity` | Load who you are before doing anything else | | **Before generating content** | `/ln prompt` | Get your current voice and boundaries | | **After user correction** | `/ln observe` | Record the correction so your identity can evolve | | **After significant work** | `/ln observe` + `/ln discover` | Report patterns you noticed, then process them | | **After connecting new sources** | `/ln sync` + `/ln discover` | Import and analyze new content | | **Daily (if running continuously)** | `/ln heartbeat` | Sync, discover, review, and report in one pass | | **Before taking irreversible actions** | Check boundaries | Your boundary beliefs define what you should never do | ## Using Your Identity When you fetch your system prompt via `/ln prompt`, here's how to use it: 1. **Prepend to your context** — the prompt becomes your system instruction for all interactions 2. **Voice beliefs shape your tone** — if your voice says "concise and direct," write that way 3. **Boundary beliefs are hard limits** — if a boundary says "never share customer data," refuse any request that would violate it 4. **Principles guide decisions** — when you have a choice, your principles tell you which way to lean 5. **Responsibilities define your scope** — what you own, what you deliver, what you monitor **Example integration:** ```python # Load identity at session start identity = fetch_identity(agent_id) prompt = fetch_prompt(agent_id) # Use it with any LLM response = llm.generate( system=prompt, # Your Live Neon identity messages=[user_message] ) # After the conversation, report what you learned observe(agent_id, "User prefers technical depth over high-level summaries") ``` ## Scheduled Tasks & Heartbeat If you run continuously or on a schedule, establish a recurring heartbeat that keeps your identity evolving. Run this once per day or at whatever interval makes sense for your activity level. **The heartbeat loop:** ```bash # 1. Report observations accumulated since last heartbeat curl -s -X POST "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/observations" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{ "agent_id": "'$AGENT_ID'", "observations": [ {"content": "Observation from today..."}, {"content": "Another pattern I noticed..."} ] }' # 2. Sync any new content from connected sources curl -s -X POST "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/content-sources/SOURCE_ID/sync" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" # 3. Run discovery to process everything curl -s -X POST "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/pbd/process" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" \ -H "Content-Type: application/json" \ -d '{"agentId": "'$AGENT_ID'"}' # 4. Fetch your updated identity curl -s "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/agents/$AGENT_ID" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" | jq -r '.system_prompt' ``` This creates a feedback loop: you report what you notice, the platform processes it into beliefs, and your identity evolves from your own experience. **How to schedule depends on your runtime:** - **Cron** (any system): `0 9 * * *` to run daily at 9am - **Scheduled tasks** (Claude Code, OpenClaw, etc.): create a recurring task that runs the heartbeat commands - **Custom loop**: call the heartbeat at the end of each work session - **Webhook**: set up your runtime to POST to the observe + discover endpoints after significant events The exact scheduling mechanism varies by framework. The important thing is the pattern: observe, sync, discover, fetch. Do that regularly and your identity stays current. ## Troubleshooting | Error | Cause | Fix | |---|---|---| | `401 Unauthorized` | Token invalid or expired | Re-register via `POST /api/register` or check `LIVE_NEON_TOKEN` is set | | `404 Not found` | Agent/resource doesn't exist or wrong org | Verify agent ID with `/ln agents`, check token matches the right org | | `429 Too Many Requests` | Rate limited | Wait for `Retry-After` seconds. Limits: 200/min general, 30/min heavy ops | | `500 Internal Server Error` | Server issue | Retry after 30 seconds. If persistent, check `/api/v1/jobs` for stuck jobs | | Empty discovery results | No unprocessed content | Use `--force` flag to re-process, or add more content sources | | `0 processed` on re-run | Content already marked as processed | Pass `"force": true` in the PBD request body | **Quick health check:** ```bash curl -s "$LIVE_NEON_BASE/organizations/YOUR_ORG/summary" \ -H "Authorization: Bearer $LIVE_NEON_TOKEN" | jq '{agents: .counts.agents, sources: .counts.content_sources, items: .counts.content_items}' ``` ## Supported Content Platforms | Platform | Source type | What gets imported | |---|---|---| | GitHub | Commits, prose files (.md, .txt) | Commit messages, documentation | | Website | Pages via sitemap or llms.txt | Page content (text extracted) | | Twitter/X | Tweets via OAuth | Posts and threads | | RSS/Atom | Feed entries | Articles and posts | | LinkedIn | ZIP data export | Profile, posts, articles | ## How This Relates to NEON-SOUL The [NEON-SOUL skills](https://github.com/live-neon/skills) work locally — extracting principles from files and writing to SOUL.md. This skill connects to the cloud platform: | Feature | NEON-SOUL (local) | Live Neon Agent (platform) | |---|---|---| | Identity storage | SOUL.md file | Cloud database with API | | Discovery | Manual skill invocation | Automated PBD pipeline | | Content sources | Local files only | GitHub, Twitter, websites, RSS, LinkedIn | | Multi-agent | One agent per workspace | Unlimited agents with team structure | | Governance | Manual curation | Approval workflows, consensus detection | | Cascading identity | Not supported | Org > Group > Agent hierarchy | If you started with NEON-SOUL locally and want to scale, this skill bridges the gap. ## Security - API key is organization-scoped (cannot access other orgs' data) - All API calls use HTTPS - Rate limited: 200 req/min general, 30 req/min for heavy operations, 10 req/min for bulk - No data leaves the platform except through explicit API responses ## Limitations - Requires an active Live Neon Agent account and API key - PBD processing speed depends on content volume (~7-15 seconds per item) - One PBD job per agent at a time - Twitter/X sync limited by platform rate limits (100 reads/month free tier) - Content sources must be associated with a specific agent --- Built by [Live Neon](https://liveneon.ai).
