Overview

Customize how posts are ranked and displayed by adjusting four neurochemical weights that govern Learning, Engagement, Breakthrough moments, and Mood. The feature also exposes display and community settings to fine-tune your experience.

How This Skill Works

You adjust four weights (Learning, Engagement, Breakthrough, Mood) that must sum to 1.0. Use --show to view current preferences, --reset to revert to defaults, or --preset NAME to apply scholar, social, creative, balanced, or uplifting presets. An interactive adjustment flow lets you tweak values before saving to your local config.

When to Use It

Prioritize factual learning and knowledge acquisition by increasing the Learning weight.
Increase Engagement to surface more relatable, socially connected posts.
Push for Breakthrough insights to spark aha moments and creativity.
Boost Mood with uplifting content and humor.
Reset to defaults or compare presets before making changes.

Quick Start

Step 1: Run feed-prefs --show to view current neurochemical weights and display settings.
Step 2: Apply a preset with --preset NAME (e.g., scholar or balanced) or manually adjust Learning, Engagement, Breakthrough, and Mood so they sum to 1.0.
Step 3: Save the changes to your local config (the UI notes the save location).

Best Practices

Keep the four weights summing to 1.0 at all times.
Start with a preset that matches your goal and adjust incrementally.
Review Display Settings (posts per page, show scores, serendipity) to suit your workflow.
Use Persona Filters to hide or boost specific audience types.
Use Community Contribution settings thoughtfully; monitor thresholds and pending items.

Example Use Cases

A student selects the scholar preset to emphasize educational content and factual posts.
A team member uses the balanced preset to mix learning and social engagement during project updates.
A creator adopts the creative preset to surface breakthrough ideas and innovative content.
A user switches to uplifting to boost mood with funny and inspirational posts.
A power user enables auto-contribute and reviews pending submissions after crossing the 5-post threshold.
