Personality System

RedHarmony's personality system allows you to create and manage multiple AI personas, each with unique characteristics, knowledge areas, and interaction styles.

Personality Structure​

Each personality is defined in a JSON file within the personalities/ directory. Here's the complete structure:

{
    "name": "personality_name",
    "description": "A brief description of the personality",
    "prompt": "Base personality prompt...",
    "interaction_style": "professional|casual|technical|friendly",
    "knowledge_areas": ["area1", "area2"],
    "voice_characteristics": {
        "tone": "formal|informal|technical|conversational",
        "style": "detailed|concise|engaging|analytical"
    },
    "interaction_preferences": {
        "response_length": "short|medium|long",
        "citation_style": "academic|casual|none",
        "engagement_level": "high|moderate|selective"
    }
}

Note: Subreddit targeting is managed centrally in config.json, not in individual personality files. See the Configuration Guide for details on subreddit configuration.
