Personality Command

IMPORTANT: This command requires you to execute bash commands. Do not just explain - actually run them!

Usage

/personality jarvis
/personality list
/personality none

Execution Instructions

When user runs: /personality <argument>

Step 1: Determine the action

• If argument is empty → Show current personality and usage
• If argument is "list" → Execute list action
• If argument is "none" → Execute disable action
• Otherwise → Execute enable action with that personality name

---

Action: Show Current (no argument)

Run this command:

if [ -f ~/.claude/config/personality.txt ]; then
    cat ~/.claude/config/personality.txt
else
    echo "none"
fi

Then tell the user:

Current personality: <result>

Usage:
  /personality jarvis   - Enable JARVIS personality
  /personality list     - Show available personalities  
  /personality none     - Disable personality

---

Action: List Available Personalities

Run this command to find installed personalities:

ls -d ~/.claude/plugins/cache/aida-personality-* 2>/dev/null | sed 's|.*/aida-personality-||'

Check current personality:

cat ~/.claude/config/personality.txt 2>/dev/null || echo "none"

Then show the user:

Available AIDA personalities:

<list each found personality>
- <name> - <read description from plugin.json if available>
  Status: Installed

Current: <current personality>

To activate: /personality <name>

---

Action: Disable Personality

Run these commands:

mkdir -p ~/.claude/config
rm -f ~/.claude/config/personality.txt

Then tell the user:

✓ Personality disabled

AIDA will use neutral core behavior.
Restart Claude Code to apply this change.

---

Action: Enable Personality (e.g., "jarvis")

Step 1: Verify the personality plugin exists

Run this command (replace <name> with the personality name):

test -d ~/.claude/plugins/cache/aida-personality-<name> && echo "exists" || echo "missing"

If "missing":

• Tell user: "Personality '<name>' is not installed"
• Run the list command to show available personalities
• Suggest: /plugin install personality-<name>@aida
• STOP here

If "exists":

Step 2: Write the configuration

Run these commands:

mkdir -p ~/.claude/config
echo "<name>" > ~/.claude/config/personality.txt

Step 3: Verify it was written

cat ~/.claude/config/personality.txt

Step 4: Tell the user:

✓ Personality set to: <name>

The <name> personality will be loaded at the start of your next Claude Code session.

To activate now:
1. Exit Claude Code (type 'exit' or Ctrl+D)
2. Start Claude Code again

The session-start hook will load your personality automatically.

---

Implementation Notes

• You MUST execute the bash commands - use the bash tool
• The personality is loaded by the session-start hook (see hooks/session-start.sh)
• Config file location: ~/.claude/config/personality.txt
• Plugin location: ~/.claude/plugins/cache/aida-personality-<name>/
• Changes require Claude Code restart to take effect

Error Handling

• If bash commands fail, show the error to the user
• If personality doesn't exist, show available options
• If config directory can't be created, explain the issue
