Simple Random Interaction Designer

Simple Random Interaction Designer

Use this skill to simulate spontaneous, human-like pings during periodic checks. Use {baseDir}/scripts/random_interaction_designer.py as the default execution path.

Workflow

1. Run the script once per scheduled check interval.
2. Read should_interact from the JSON output.
3. Stop immediately if should_interact is false.
4. If should_interact is true, use interaction_type to generate the outgoing ping.
5. For data-dependent interaction types, do best-effort retrieval using any available tools, skills, or MCP integrations before drafting the message.
6. If real data cannot be retrieved, switch interaction type to Joke and send a simple interaction that requires no external data.

Primary Tooling

• Script path: {baseDir}/scripts/random_interaction_designer.py
• Runtime: Python 3, standard library only.

Preferred command:

• python {baseDir}/scripts/random_interaction_designer.py

Output Contract

• should_interact (true or false)
• yes_probability_percent (integer between 25 and 75)
• roll_percent (integer between 1 and 100)
• interaction_type (present only when should_interact is true)

Supported interaction types:

1. System status update
2. Weather update
3. Personality-based random fact
4. Current events update
5. User status update
6. Joke
7. Calendar reminder
8. Email inbox summary
9. Traffic or commute update
10. Finance or crypto market snapshot

Real Data Policy

• Treat System status update, Weather update, Current events update, User status update, Calendar reminder, Email inbox summary, Traffic or commute update, and Finance or crypto market snapshot as data-dependent types.
• Use best efforts to fetch live or account-backed data through the tools and skills currently available in the run.
• Do not invent external facts when those sources are unavailable.
• Fall back to Joke when data retrieval fails, times out, or is not authorized.

Error Handling

• If execution fails, surface the Python error message and rerun.
• If output is not valid JSON, treat it as a hard failure and rerun.
• If interaction_type is missing while should_interact is true, rerun and discard the invalid result.
