Instar Identity

jkheadley/instar-identity

Establish and recover persistent agent identity that survives context compaction, session restarts, and autonomous operation. Use when an agent needs to know who it is, recover after context compression, orient at session start, or understand the identity infrastructure. Trigger words: who am I, remember, identity, after restart, compaction, context loss, who am I working with, my principles.

Install

one command, takes just this skill from the repository 
npx skills add https://github.com/JKHeadley/instar --skill instar-identity

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take jkheadley/instar-identity from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.

Install what it needs

The instructions reference npx. Without those the skill loads but fails at the first command.
