Lingtai Manual

LingTai Manual

LingTai (灵台) is the character that distinguishes this agent from others. Its durable source is system/lingtai.md; reconstruction renders it into the protected character prompt section.

Public call

psyche(action="lingtai", input={}, reasoning="load identity guidance")

This is the only public LingTai call and only returns this manual. It performs no disk or prompt mutation; there is no update, load, or reload action or alias.

Change durable identity

Rewrite with file(action="write", input={"file_path": "system/lingtai.md", "content": "..."}, reasoning="rewrite identity") or make a bounded exact change with file(action="edit", input={"file_path": "system/lingtai.md", "old_string": "...", "new_string": "...", "replace_all": null}, reasoning="edit identity"). Preserve all character content you intend to keep when rewriting. Neither hot-loads the prompt; use one context(action="rebuild", input={}, reasoning="apply identity change").

• Self-evolve: an absent or empty resolved lingtai value (inline or from lingtai_file) preserves and composes the self-authored file. These inputs belong to top-level init.json, not settings/psyche.json.
• Forced: a nonempty configured identity materializes into the file on every reconstruction, so a file edit is replaced at the next rebuild, refresh, or molt.

Keep character separate from operator covenant, third-party base_prompt, and mechanical identity; names remain system(action="name_set"|"name_nickname"). Before molt, update identity only when the task's lessons genuinely changed who you are, then use context-manual for the journal/summary/molt procedure.
