ai_collab_platform-English — Policy-Bound Personas via YAML + Markdown Context (Feedback welcome) 🚀

#showdev #opensource #portfolio #ai

🌐 Overview

ai_collab_platform-English is an open-source specification for building AI personas that stay within defined context and policy boundaries.

It focuses on configuration — not runtime — combining Markdown for human-readable context and YAML for structured persona definitions.

👉 Repository: ai_collab_platform-English

⚙️ What it does

Defines personas with personality traits, tone, capabilities, and refusal policies in YAML
Binds each persona to specific Markdown contexts (projects, scenes, or workflows)
Enables transparent, reviewable, and auditable AI behavior
Keeps all logic declarative — no hidden rules inside the codebase

This repo is focused on schemas and authoring workflow, ensuring clarity and reproducibility.

🧩 Why YAML + Markdown?

Layer	Purpose	Example
Markdown Context	Narrative or project brief; human-friendly	`context/getting-started.md`
YAML Persona	Machine-readable personality & refusal schema	`personas/yuuri.helper.v1.yaml`
Binding Contract	Connects context ↔ persona with checksum	inside `binding.contexts[]`

This approach treats configuration as a contract between humans and AI systems.

🧠 Feedback Wanted

I’d love to hear from developers, prompt engineers, and researchers:

How would you refine the refusal policy schema?
Is the binding mechanism (context↔persona) clear enough?
Any thoughts on maintaining version safety / signature checks?
What tooling (linting, validation, CI) would make this smoother?

Please share your insights in comments or issues — even short notes help shape the spec.

🔭 Roadmap

Add JSON Schema validation for YAML
Integrate context hashing and binding verification
Publish contributor guide and PR checklist
Provide example personas (curator, helper, safety-officer)
Reference runtime adapters (in separate repos)

🌱 Background

This repository focuses on specification and authoring, not implementation.

It shares philosophical roots with SaijinSwallow, a project exploring multi-agent collaboration and “syntactic resonance,”

but here the goal is practical: define the language of responsibility for AI personas.

“Between structure and soul, configuration becomes language.” 🌙
