What problem does it solve?

This Skill streamlines the process of adding new or updated "instincts" (likely custom AI behaviors or configurations) into your system by importing them from external sources.

Core Features & Use Cases

Import from File: Load instincts defined in a local YAML file.
Import from URL: Fetch and import instincts directly from a web address.
Conflict Resolution: Automatically handles existing instincts by prioritizing higher confidence values or more recent definitions.
Use Case: You've received a new set of AI behavior configurations from a colleague via a shared file link. Use this Skill to quickly integrate them into your Claude environment.

Quick Start

Import instincts from the file located at ./instincts-export.yaml.

FAQPage Schema

How do I import AI instincts from a YAML file into Claude?▼

You can import AI instincts from a YAML file by executing the required `instinct-cli.py` Python script with the local file path to load custom behaviors into the Claude environment.

Can I import custom AI behaviors directly from a URL?▼

Yes, you can import custom AI behaviors directly from a URL. The instinct-cli fetches configurations from web addresses and integrates them into your environment.

How are existing instincts updated when importing new configurations?▼

Existing instincts are updated during import by evaluating confidence scores and recency, automatically prioritizing higher confidence values or more recent definitions to resolve conflicts.

Do I need Python to run instinct-cli for configuration imports?▼

Yes, you need Python installed to execute the `instinct-cli.py` script, which manages the logic for fetching, evaluating, and integrating YAML configurations from files or URLs.

What is the best way to share and import AI behavior configurations from a colleague?▼

The best way to share and import AI behavior configurations is to export them as a YAML file, share the file link, and use the import script to integrate the received instincts.

Why does my instinct import not overwrite an existing configuration?▼

An instinct import will not overwrite an existing configuration if the new definition has a lower confidence score or an older timestamp, as the system prioritizes higher confidence and recency.
