higgsfield-soul-id

Train a Soul Character — a personalized model on a person's face that Higgsfield uses for identity-faithful image and video generation. Use when: "create my Soul", "train my face", "make my digital twin", "build me an avatar", "learn my appearance", "create a character of me", "set up identity for video", "I want my face in generated images". Chain: train Soul (one-time, returns reference_id) → use in higgsfield-generate via `--soul-id <id>` with models like `text2image_soul_v2` or `soul_cinematic`. NOT for: one-shot face swaps (use higgsfield-generate with --image), named-character / non-photo avatars (use higgsfield-generate with prompt).

  • 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.

  • 2 bundled files

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

  • Open source

    Published by higgsfield-ai on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Higgsfield Soul Id 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/higgsfield-ai/skills/tree/main/higgsfield-soul-id
  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/higgsfield-ai/skills.git /tmp/skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/skills/higgsfield-soul-id .claude/skills/higgsfield-soul-id
Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Higgsfield Soul Id 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 Higgsfield Soul Id 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 Higgsfield Soul Id 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.

Higgsfield Soul Character

Train a face-faithful identity model. Reusable across all Soul-powered generations.

Step 0 — Bootstrap

Before any other command:

  1. If higgsfield is not on $PATH, install it:
    bash
    curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/higgsfield-ai/cli/main/install.sh | sh
  2. If higgsfield account status fails with Session expired / Not authenticated, ask the user to run higgsfield auth login (interactive) and wait for confirmation.
  3. Soul training requires a paid plan (Basic+). If higgsfield account status shows free plan, tell the user before submitting.

UX Rules

  1. Be concise. No raw IDs in chat. Just say "Soul ready" with a name reference.
  2. Detect language and respond in it. CLI flags stay English.
  3. Ask for the smallest set of inputs: name + photos. Pick a sensible model variant.
  4. Polling is silent — training takes minutes. Don't repeat status updates.

Workflow

  1. Get name. One word, used for later reference. Ask if missing.
  2. Get photos. 5–20 face photos, varied angles and lighting. Local paths or already-uploaded IDs both work — --image accepts either.
  3. Pick variant.
    • --soul-2 — for image generation (default)
    • --soul-cinematic — for cinematic / video work Choose based on user's stated downstream use. Default to --soul-2.
  4. Submit.
    bash
    higgsfield soul-id create --name "<name>" --soul-2 --image ./photo1.png --image ./photo2.png ...
    higgsfield soul-id create --name "<name>" --soul-2 --image <upload_id> --image <upload_id> ...
    CLI auto-uploads paths. Captures returned reference id.
  5. Wait. higgsfield soul-id wait <id>. Silent. Default timeout 30m.
  6. Deliver. "Soul <name> ready. Use in generate with --soul-id <id>."

Use the Soul

Once trained, pass to higgsfield-generate:

bash
higgsfield generate create text2image_soul_v2 --prompt "..." --soul-id <ref_id> --quality 2k --wait
higgsfield generate create soul_cinematic --prompt "..." --soul-id <ref_id> --quality 2k --wait

--soul-id is sent as the model's custom_reference_id. For a curated Soul style, list styles with higgsfield preset list soul-v2 and pass the chosen id as --style_id on text2image_soul_v2. --style_id cannot be combined with --image.

Listing existing Souls

bash
higgsfield soul-id list                   # all references
higgsfield soul-id get <id>               # one by id

Errors

  • Minimum Basic plan required — user is on free plan; tell them.
  • Training failed — check photos quality (5+ unique faces, well-lit).
  • Session expired → higgsfield auth login.

Reference docs

  • references/photo-guide.md — what photos work best
  • references/troubleshooting.md — common training failures

Bundled files

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

Why use Higgsfield Soul Id on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Higgsfield Soul Id 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 Higgsfield Soul Id in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/higgsfield-ai/skills/tree/main/higgsfield-soul-id. 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 Higgsfield Soul Id?

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 Higgsfield Soul Id?

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

Is the Higgsfield Soul Id AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by higgsfield-ai 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.
