SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Create and manage HeyGen avatars to provide a persistent face and voice identity for the agent, the user, or named characters, enabling consistent video appearances across sessions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Identity extraction from workspace files (SOUL.md, IDENTITY.md) and optional existing AVATAR-<NAME>.md data to seed avatar traits.
  • Prompt-based avatar creation by default, with optional photo-upload upgrades for real-person twins.
  • End-to-end workflow orchestration across Phase 0–Phase 4 (onboarding, creation, voice setup, and saving to AVATAR-<NAME>.md) so subsequent skills like heygen-video can reuse the avatar automatically.

Quick Start

Create or update the agent's HeyGen avatar and save it to AVATAR-<NAME>.md.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a persistent HeyGen avatar for my AI agent?

Yes, you can create a HeyGen avatar using a photo upload. While prompt-based avatar generation is the default approach, the workflow supports optional photo-upload upgrades to generate real-person twins for your identity files.

How does HeyGen avatar creation use workspace identity files?

HeyGen avatar creation uses workspace identity files like SOUL.md and IDENTITY.md to seed avatar traits during the initial extraction phase. This ensures the generated face and voice identity aligns with your established character or agent persona.

Can I reuse my HeyGen avatar configuration across different video sessions?

You can reuse your HeyGen avatar configuration across sessions because the workflow saves canonical data to AVATAR-<NAME>.md. This allows subsequent video generation skills to automatically retrieve and apply the stored face and voice identity.

Do I need existing identity files to generate a HeyGen avatar?

You do not need existing identity files to generate a HeyGen avatar, as the workflow supports prompt-based creation from scratch. However, it will utilize available workspace files like SOUL.md to automatically seed avatar traits if they are present.
