Summary
Portable human context that follows you between AI tools instead of living inside one chat product's memory. Exposes profile artifacts as MCP resources so Claude can read your preferences, constraints, and communication style without you repeating them every session. Includes validation hooks, redaction policies, and interop formats for handoffs between assistants or orchestrators. Reach for this when you want stable context across coding agents, editors, or analysts without manually pasting system prompts. Integrates with SET for repo-local orchestration and generates compact JSON artifacts from markdown profiles. Think of it as the protocol layer underneath assistants, not another assistant itself.

ID Protocol — portable context for AI tools
Keep your working preferences in files you control. ID turns a reviewed profile into compact, privacy-filtered context that can move between AI tools and repositories.
Try it in five minutes
Requires Python 3.11 or newer.
uv tool install id-protocol
mkdir my-id-profile && cd my-id-profile
idctl init --owner-id demo
Edit profiles/demo/profile.minimal.md, then build and inspect the portable output:
idctl validate --owner-id demo
idctl refresh-soul --owner-id demo
idctl export-compact --owner-id demo
idctl diff --owner-id demo --since 7d
The starter profile is provisional until you review it. Use an alias such as demo or my-work-profile; a legal name is unnecessary. ID does not upload generated files.
Files and ownership
| File | Role |
|---|---|
profile.minimal.md | Small owner-edited starting profile |
profile.core.md | Canonical profile when a fuller source is needed |
profile.extended.md | Optional detailed workflows and context |
privacy-policy.v1.json | Per-field export permissions |
handshake.md | Concise rules for applying context |
soul.md | Short derived bootstrap for an agent |
context.compact.json | Privacy-filtered portable context |
mcp.context.resource.json | Resource payload for an external MCP adapter |
Markdown profiles remain the source of truth. Generated JSON is a transport view and may omit nuance. The package is a local CLI; it does not provide an MCP server or synchronize vendor accounts.
Privacy behavior
Compact and MCP resource exports require a valid policy whose owner_id matches the requested profile. Unlisted fields stay local-only. Missing, malformed, mixed, conflicting, or owner-mismatched policies block export.
Legacy list policies from earlier releases are normalized in memory during validation and export. Their source files remain unchanged and their restrictions remain effective. --allow-unfiltered only permits a missing policy in a reviewed legacy workflow; it cannot bypass an invalid policy.
Review the resulting export before attaching it to another tool. See the privacy model, policy schema, and threat model.
ABVX toolchain
| Product | Responsibility | Tested release |
|---|---|---|
| ID | Human preferences and operating constraints | 0.5.2 |
| agentsgen | Repository instructions and commands | 0.5.0 |
| SET | Review-first workflow planning and exports | 0.4.0 |
| abvx-agent-skills | Optional reusable workflows | 0.15.0 |
These remain independently installable. ID does not install companions or grant tool permissions.
For a repository that already contains a reviewed ID profile:
idctl install-set-hook --path .
The adapter returns owner-local bootstrap pointers to SET and preserves an existing custom hook. See the SET integration guide.
Evidence
Three reproducible demos exercise installed onboarding, policy-filtered omission, legacy-policy compatibility, and the agentsgen/SET handoff with synthetic data. They measure local CLI behavior and runtime, not AI answer quality.
The historical benchmark snapshot is a small checked-in sample with explicit limits. AI-client behavior still depends on each client's configuration and context rules.
