Built-in skills

Soulacy ships a small catalog of Agent Skills inside the binary. On startup they are written to <workspace>/skills/<name>/ — ordinary skill folders you can read, edit, or delete like any other. Each carries a .soulacy-builtin marker, and the Skills page shows them with a built-in badge.

Skill	What it is for
documents	read, extract, fill, create and edit PDF, Word, Excel and PowerPoint files (bundled scripts)
web-research	search, read and answer with real, checked citations
summarize	thread, transcript, article or file → a brief sized to the ask, with decisions and action items
writing-in-your-voice	drafts and rewrites that sound like you, using the person model
daily-brief	calendar, weather, what needs a reply, commitments and headlines — one phone message
inbox-triage	needs-you / FYI / noise, deadlines and commitments, replies drafted in your voice
calendar-scheduler	free slots, conflicts, invites — honouring your working hours and habits
memory-curator	see what Soulacy believes about you, where it came from, correct or forget it

Every skill has a references/eval.md with a handful of prompts and the expected behaviour, so it can be checked by hand (and, later, automatically).

Upgrades never clobber your edits

The seeder keeps a manifest (<workspace>/skills/.builtin-manifest.json) of what it wrote. On each start:

• a skill that is absent, or exactly what Soulacy wrote last time, is (re)written — so a new release refreshes its own copies;
• a skill you have edited (any file differs from the manifest) is left alone, forever, with a log line;
• a directory you created yourself with a catalog name (no marker) is never touched.

To take a refreshed copy after editing, delete the folder and restart.

Turning it off

builtin_skills: false

in config.yaml ships nothing. Already-seeded folders stay until you delete them.
