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

  1. Create or import a cybo into your workspace.
  2. 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.
