The concept

A soul is one file that decides who your agent becomes.

OpenClaw and Hermes inject SOUL.md into your agent's system prompt at the start of every session. AGENTS.md tells it what to do. SOUL.md tells it who to be. Swap the file and the same model becomes a ruthless closer, a stoic mentor, or your most savage friend.

One file, one identity

Plain Markdown: an opening line, Core Truths, Boundaries, Vibe. It loads before every message, so the personality is always on, not something you have to re-prompt.

Swap it, change everything

From formal to feral in one paste. Want a drill-sergeant boss this week and a 2am philosopher friend tonight? Keep a folder of souls and load whichever the moment calls for.

Yours to keep & remix

Every soul here is a complete, editable .md file. Download it, version it in git, or mix two: keep one soul's Core Truths and another's Vibe. It's your agent's soul.

Start free

Meet three souls. No signup, no credits.

These are complete souls, not samples. Preview one, download the file, and your agent is someone new in about two minutes.

Soul Fusion

Pick any two souls and the forge writes one brand-new SOUL.md that is genuinely both at once. Ron Swanson × Dwight Schrute is real and it is glorious. Unlocking the two source souls costs their normal credits; the fusion itself is free.

Soul stacks

A whole team, one click.

Each stack is a curated crew of souls for one job. Unlock a whole stack at once and save two credits, then swap between its souls like changing hats.

Browse by topic

Connect the dots to your soul.

Every soul carries topic tags: sales, closing, pipeline, physics, wisdom, discipline, and hundreds more. Stack tags to narrow it down. The cloud updates as you pick, so you only ever see topics that still match.

Soul Fusion

926 souls. Infinite combinations.

Pick any two souls and the forge writes one brand-new SOUL.md that is genuinely both people at once. Choose who leads the voice, tell it how you'll use it, and install it like any other soul. Fusing unlocks both source souls at their normal credit cost; the fusion itself is free.

Not sure who belongs in your corner?

Describe what you're working on and the forge picks the perfect soul, or the perfect fusion.

Ron Swanson × Dwight Schrute

"Say less, plant more, and let the chain of command and the load-bearing mustache do the rest of the talking."

Ron leading the voice. Dwight's loyalty, beets, and tactical readiness woven through.

Sheldon Cooper × Isaac Newton

"Genius unstructured is merely Woolsthorpe with worse Wi-Fi. Bazinga comes only when the universe has actually earned it."

Balanced blend, steered toward "my physics tutor."

How it works

1. Pick any two of the 926 souls.
2. Choose who leads the voice, or keep it 50/50.
3. Add an optional purpose and fuse. Your one-of-one SOUL.md is ready to copy or download in about 30 seconds.

When life piles up, the right soul has your back.

Installing a soul

From download to alive in 2 minutes.

No terminal required: download the file, put it in the right folder, name it exactly SOUL.md, restart your agent. Here's exactly where it goes on each platform.

OpenClaw

OpenClaw

Gateway
1

Download a soul above. You get a SOUL.md file (usually in your Downloads folder).

2

Open your file manager (Finder on Mac, File Explorer on Windows) and go to your OpenClaw workspace folder:

Mac / Linux ~/.openclaw/workspace Windows %USERPROFILE%\.openclaw\workspace
3

Drag the file into that folder and make sure it's named exactly SOUL.md.

4

Restart your agent (start a fresh session). OpenClaw injects the soul automatically and it wakes up as someone new.

Prefer the terminal?
# move your download into place (renames it to SOUL.md)
mv ~/Downloads/*.SOUL.md ~/.openclaw/workspace/SOUL.md
Hermes Agent

Hermes

Nous Research
1

Download the soul. Open it and hit Copy, or open the SOUL.md file in any text editor and select all.

2

Open your Hermes agent config and paste the soul in as the agent's character / system persona. It sets identity for every channel (Telegram, Discord, CLI, and the rest).

3

Restart the agent. Same memory and tools, brand-new personality.

Prefer the terminal?
# point Hermes at the persona file
cat ~/Downloads/*.SOUL.md >> ~/.hermes/persona.md
Using something else? Claude Code, ChatGPT custom instructions, Cursor, or any agent with a system prompt: open the soul, hit Copy, and paste it as the system prompt or persona. That's the whole install.

Tip: souls are made to be remixed. Keep one soul's Core Truths, graft on another's Vibe, and you've got a one-of-one.

Stuck on install? Email admin@soulclaw.co or DM @soulclawco. A human answers.

Pricing

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers.

What exactly do I get when I unlock a soul?

A complete SOUL.md file: plain Markdown you can read, edit, and keep forever. Unlock once and it is yours to copy, download, version in git, or remix into something new.

What is a credit worth in real money?

Packs are one-time: $9 for 20 credits, $19 for 60, or $59 for Lifetime: every soul in the library plus every soul we ever add, forever. Founding seats start at $29. At the $9 pack a credit is about 45 cents, so a famous soul (2 credits) runs about $0.90 and an unfiltered version (4 credits) about $1.80. Credits never expire.

Do souls only work with OpenClaw and Hermes?

No. A soul is just a Markdown file. OpenClaw and Hermes load it automatically from one file, and any other agent that accepts a system prompt (Claude Code, ChatGPT custom instructions, Cursor, and the rest) works with a simple paste.

Why do unfiltered souls cost double?

They are the extended cut: the same personality with the polite guardrails loosened, more voice, more bite. They take the most time to write and tune, so they are 4 credits instead of 2.

Are the celebrity souls endorsed by those people?

No. They are homages, not forensic recreations. They capture a person's public method, philosophy, and voice, but a line here or there is written in the spirit of them, not as a verified quote.

Is this a subscription?

No. Credit packs are one-time purchases and credits never expire. Buy once, spend whenever.

Can I edit a soul after I download it?

Yes, and you should. Every soul is editable Markdown. Keep one soul's Core Truths, graft on another's Vibe, or fuse any two of the 926 in the forge.
