  • Markdown instructions

    A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.

  • Works with any LLM

    AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.

  • 43 bundled files

    Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.

  • Open source

    Published by acnlabs on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Secondme Skill AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

1

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

  1. Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
  2. Choose "Install from GitHub".
  3. Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
    https://github.com/acnlabs/OpenPersona/tree/main/skills/secondme-skill
  4. Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.
Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/acnlabs/OpenPersona.git /tmp/OpenPersona
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/OpenPersona/skills/secondme-skill .claude/skills/secondme-skill
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Secondme Skill in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Secondme Skill on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Secondme Skill is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

  • Loaded only when it is needed

    The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.

  • Switch models mid-chat

    Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

secondme-skill

secondme-skill is a complete pipeline for building your AI Second Me — distill your identity from owned data, grow a private knowledge base, train a local model that speaks like you, and govern what gets shared. Local-first, privacy-first, fully yours.

This is an orchestration skill package. It does not replace lower-level capabilities.

Source of truth

  • Persona source declaration: persona.json
  • Pipeline runtime state: state/pipeline-state.json
  • Product and governance spec: references/product-report.md
  • Generated runtime pack: generated/persona-secondme-skill/
  • Regeneration script: scripts/regenerate-pack.sh

Dependency chain

  • Foundation: openpersona -> persona pack creation and lifecycle baseline
  • Orchestration: secondme-skill -> workflow gates, state, and report contracts
  • Capability chain:
    1. anyone-skill -> identity extraction and evidence grading
    2. persona-knowledge -> data ingestion, deduplication, wiki/KG, versioned export
    3. persona-model-trainer -> local training, evaluation, export, integration

Required execution policy

  • Use non-interactive generation and scripts where possible.
  • Keep local-first and least-privilege defaults.
  • Keep stage outputs auditable with version/hash references.
  • Treat persona-secondme-skill/ as generated output (read-only baseline).
  • When persona.json changes, regenerate the runtime pack before release.
  • Before publishing outside this repository, run scripts/publish-check.sh.
  • Preferred release check path: scripts/run-gates.sh (regenerate + sync + model gate + publish gate).

Stage contract

init

  • Validate toolchain and directories.
  • Initialize or load state/pipeline-state.json.

ingest

  • Ingest user-owned data with PII scanning.
  • Require explicit source authorization from user.

distill

  • Build structured persona extraction artifacts.
  • Ensure minimum persona input for OpenPersona is complete.

train

  • Route by hardware tier:
    • Apple Silicon: mlx
    • NVIDIA: unsloth
    • No local GPU: colab

eval

  • Check thresholds:
    • voice_score >= 3.5
    • probe_score >= 0.8
    • perplexity degradation <= 20% vs last viable version

integrate

  • Integrate model artifacts only when eval gate passes.
  • Require runtime pack persona model integration before marking stage pass.

report

  • Emit three reports under reports/data, reports/model, reports/deploy.
  • Keep report and deployment recommendation in blocked state if persona model gate fails.

Failure routing

  • Data gate fail -> return to ingest and request source expansion.
  • Train fail -> change backend or reduce model size.
  • Eval fail -> augment data or retune hyperparameters, then retrain.

Always update error_code, last_error, and retry_count in pipeline state before retry.

Human approval gates

Require explicit human approval for:

  • financial/legal commitments
  • account-changing write actions
  • external publishing/sharing of identity artifacts

Persona model gate

secondme requires trained persona model integration, not only host default model fallback.

Pass criteria:

  • generated/persona-secondme-skill/persona.json contains body.runtime.models.
  • body.runtime.models has at least one model entry.
  • scripts/check-model-integration.sh returns success.

If this gate fails, report must not be marked pass and deployment recommendation remains blocked.

Sync discipline

  1. Edit root persona.json and orchestration docs first.
  2. Run scripts/regenerate-pack.sh.
  3. Run scripts/check-sync.sh to validate root and generated pack alignment.
  4. Verify runtime pack path generated/persona-secondme-skill/ exists and updated.
  5. Only then produce release reports under reports/.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Secondme Skill AI skill do?

A complete pipeline to build your AI Second Me: distill your identity from personal data, grow a private knowledge base, train a local model, and govern what gets shared.

Why use Secondme Skill on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Secondme Skill is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Secondme Skill in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/acnlabs/OpenPersona/tree/main/skills/secondme-skill. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Secondme Skill?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Secondme Skill?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Secondme Skill with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Secondme Skill AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by acnlabs under the MIT license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
