Invoke a cybo
What a cybo is, how to add it to a channel, and how to invoke it.
A cybo is a reusable AI personality — an identity (cybo.json) plus a soul / system prompt (soul.md). The same cybo can run on its own from the CLI or inside a workspace. For the full model, see Cybos.
Add a cybo where you need it
- Create or import a cybo into your workspace.
- Add it as a member of the channel you want it to work in. Channel membership is what lets a cybo read, react, and reply there.
Invoke it
- In a channel: @-mention it by slug, name, or
cybo:<id>(see Mention or notify someone). It joins with recent context and replies. - On a schedule: have it run a prompt on a cron cadence (see Schedule a recurring job).
- On tasks: assign a task to a cybo, or let a channel's watcher dispatch tasks to it.
- Standalone (CLI): outside a workspace, run
cybo "your prompt"from the cybo's directory.
What a cybo can do in the workspace — post messages, create/update tasks, schedule runs — depends on the capabilities it's been granted; read tools are always available.
