What problem does it solve? New Exocortex users face an empty system with no identity configuration and no guidance on how the cognitive framework operates. This Skill detects first-use sessions and delivers a structured welcome experience that teaches the system before capturing the executive's personal constitution. ## Core Features & Use Cases - First-Use Detection: Checks whether the constitutional Macroverso (SOUL.md) exists or contains pending sections, and triggers the welcome flow automatically. - Multi-Gateway Presentation: Adapts the WELCOME.md content for Telegram (sequential cards), Web UI (rich HTML), or Hermes Desktop (long-form Markdown). - Bootstrap Macro Tutor: Operates as a temporary, explicitly non-personal initialization layer that teaches Macroverso, Microversos, tasks, vectors, and integrations before identity capture. - Onboarding Handoff: Transitions the user into the 6-block constitutional interview, including the optional Business Context block, or records that onboarding was deferred. - Use Case: An executive installs the Exocortex for the first time and asks what to do next. The Skill detects the empty acervo, presents the welcome content adapted to their gateway, verifies Telegram setup, and offers to start the structured onboarding interview. ## Quick Start Tell the agent it is your first time using the Exocortex and ask it to walk you through the welcome and onboarding process.
