How it fires

How this skill gets triggered: by you, by Claude, or both.

Claude auto-loads it when your prompt matches the work.Auto-invocation is when the right skill fires by itself at the right moment, driven by a FLOW.md router and a hook, instead of you invoking it by name. It is the difference between a skill being installed and a skill actually getting used.Read the full definition →

Daemon Skill

What It Does

Manages your public daemon profile — a living page of what you're working on, thinking about, reading, and building. It pulls data from your LifeOS system, runs it through a deterministic security filter so only publicly safe content survives, and deploys a static site. Workflows cover update, read, preview, and deploy.

The Problem

You want a public presence that stays current without hand-editing a profile page every week, and without ever leaking private data. Your real context lives in LifeOS — goals, projects, ideas, identity — mixed with things that must never go public: contacts, finances, health, names, paths, credentials. Manually copying the safe parts is slow and one slip publishes something you can't take back. This skill aggregates the safe sources, blocks the sensitive ones at the code level, and gives you a preview-then-approve gate before anything ships.

How It Works

The DaemonAggregator reads LifeOS sources and merges them into `daemon-data.json`; a deterministic SecurityFilter (pattern matching, not an LLM) strips names, paths, credentials, and internal refs; the deploy step builds a fully static site. Sensitive files are never opened by the aggregator at all.

Workflow Routing

| Workflow | Trigger | File | |----------|---------|------| | **UpdateDaemon** | "update daemon", "refresh daemon" | `Workflows/UpdateDaemon.md` | | **ReadDaemon** | "read daemon", "check daemon", "daemon status" | `Workflows/ReadDaemon.md` | | **PreviewDaemon** | "preview daemon", "daemon diff" | `Workflows/PreviewDaemon.md` | | **DeployDaemon** | "deploy daemon", "push daemon", "ship daemon" | `Workflows/DeployDaemon.md` |

Architecture

Two-repo pattern: public framework + private content.

LifeOS SOURCES (private, read-only)
  TELOS/ (missions, goals, books, movies, wisdom)
  KNOWLEDGE/Ideas/ (title + thesis only)
  PROJECTS.md (public projects only)
  MEMORY/WORK/ (abstracted to topic themes)
  PRINCIPAL_IDENTITY.md (public bio data)
