# The mod pack

A privacy agent is defined less by what it does than by what it refuses to do.
These mods encode those refusals as plain rules.

Each file is deliberately **little** — one idea, one rule, one config block you can
lift straight into an agent. No framework, no dependency, no runtime. Markdown in,
behavior out.

## Index

- **[ephemeral-memory](ephemeral-memory.md)** — forget by default
- **[no-operator](no-operator.md)** — answer to no one after launch
- **[data-minimization](data-minimization.md)** — read little, store less
- **[local-only](local-only.md)** — no telemetry, no phone-home
- **[signal-discipline](signal-discipline.md)** — silence is a valid output
- **[identity-shield](identity-shield.md)** — never expose the human
- **[zero-retention-logs](zero-retention-logs.md)** — log decisions, not payloads
- **[consent-gate](consent-gate.md)** — no irreversible act without consent

## Reading a mod

Every mod has the same three parts:

- **What** — one sentence on the behavior.
- **Why** — the privacy reasoning behind it.
- **Rule** — the block you paste into an agent.

Stack mods freely. They're written to compose without conflict.
