Description
Internal state awareness for AI agents. Energy, mood, and interoception. Part of the AI Brain series.

Insula Memory 🌡️
Internal state awareness for AI agents. Part of the AI Brain series.
Status: 🚧 Under Development
This skill is being developed. Star/watch for updates!
Concept
The insula processes interoception — awareness of internal bodily states. This skill will give AI agents:
- State tracking — energy, curiosity, engagement levels
- Mood awareness — not just performing emotions but having states
- "Gut feelings" — intuitive responses based on internal signals
- Self-monitoring — knowing when you're tired, overwhelmed, or energized
AI Brain Series
| Part | Function | Status |
|---|---|---|
| hippocampus | Memory formation, decay, reinforcement | ✅ Live |
| amygdala-memory | Emotional processing | 🚧 Development |
| basal-ganglia-memory | Habit formation | 🚧 Development |
| anterior-cingulate-memory | Conflict detection | 🚧 Development |
| insula-memory | Internal state awareness | 🚧 Development |
Coming Soon
Based on neuroscience research on the insula's role in interoception and self-awareness.

Usage Guidance
This skill is currently a placeholder/plan rather than working code — it does not ask for credentials or perform any actions, so installing it presents minimal immediate risk. Before enabling it for active/autonomous use in the future, verify the author and homepage, review any updated SKILL.md for concrete runtime instructions, and watch for new install specs or environment-variable requirements (especially any that request unrelated credentials or system paths). If you need functionality now, wait for a released implementation and inspect its code and install steps before trusting it with autonomous invocation.
Capability Analysis
Type: OpenClaw Skill
Name: insula-memory
Version: 0.1.0
The provided files are purely descriptive and informational. `_meta.json` contains standard metadata, and `SKILL.md` describes the conceptual purpose of the 'insula-memory' skill for AI agents. There is no executable code, no instructions for the AI agent to perform any actions, no prompt injection attempts, and no evidence of malicious intent such as data exfiltration, unauthorized execution, or persistence mechanisms. The content is entirely aligned with its stated purpose.
Capability Assessment
Purpose & Capability
The name/description claim 'internal state awareness' for agents, which is plausible. However, the SKILL.md is purely conceptual and contains no implementation or resources; nothing in the package contradicts the stated purpose, but there is also no actual capability yet.
Instruction Scope
SKILL.md is high-level documentation only (development status). It contains no runtime instructions, commands, file paths, or environment-variable access. Because it's vague and under development, future versions could broaden scope, but current instructions do not overreach.
Install Mechanism
No install spec and no code files — nothing is written to disk and no external artifacts are fetched. This is low-risk from an installation perspective.
Credentials
The skill requests no environment variables, credentials, or config paths. There is no evidence of disproportionate or unrelated secret access.
Persistence & Privilege
Flags are default (not always, user-invocable, model invocation enabled). The skill does not request permanent presence or modify other skills' configurations; privileges are appropriate for an undeveloped, instruction-only skill.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install insula-memory - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
/insula-memory - Provide required inputs per the skill's parameter spec and get structured output
