The workspace

Your assistant's identity, personality, and knowledge about you live in its workspace: plain text files you can open, read, and edit.

On Linux (0.1), the workspace lives on your machine. The hatch uses an instance directory under ~/.local/share/cadence/assistants/. A legacy fallback is ~/.cadence/workspace/.

There is no Aevum-hosted Cadence Cloud workspace in 0.1.

What's in there

workspace/
  IDENTITY.md
  SOUL.md
  USER.md
  NOW.md
  config.json
  skills/
  memory/
  data/

IDENTITY.md is the name and face. SOUL.md is how it behaves. USER.md is what it knows about you. NOW.md is current focus. Memory concept pages live under memory/.
