COF 1.2: AI characters now have an inner life 🧠
With 1.1, Clara got memories. 1.2 gives her what those memories made of her: a psyche graph of values, beliefs, wants, needs, fears, wounds, tastes and habits, each node with a strength, a stability, dates and a "because" link to the memory behind it.
Some nodes she tells freely, some only when it matters, some never. A belief can be marked false but held: she lives by it, the reader knows better.
A converter can propose nodes from a character card or free text; nothing enters the file until the author ticks it. Agents get it as text: cof export --format agent writes a SOUL.md.
Open spec, MIT tools (CLI, builder, explorer, ComfyUI node). Every 1.0 and 1.1 file stays valid. RFCs open for comments until November 22.
