Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use Distilly when you have a person or set of source materials to turn into a reusable profile for an agent workflow, rather than seeking a hosted agent service.

Who it is for

  • People preserving a colleague’s work practices or team knowledge in a reusable agent skill.
  • Builders creating colleague, relationship or celebrity profiles from descriptions and source material.
  • Developers using compatible agent hosts that can discover and invoke local Skills.

Documented uses

  • Turn messages, documents, interviews or public sources into a reusable Person Profile.
  • Organize observable work methods, expression and decision patterns for an agent.
  • Package a generated profile as an Agent Skill for use in a compatible host.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The project is open source under the MIT license. The README specifies Python 3.9 or later.

  • The basic workflow allows a description or source material and makes each input field optional.
  • The output is an Agent Skill, so a compatible agent environment is needed to reuse it.
  • The project documents native local Skill discovery across Claude Code, Hermes, OpenClaw, Codex, DeepSeek Harness, Pi, Grok Build and OpenCode.
  • Advanced celebrity research tools are covered by a separate install guide.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Create a Person Profile with Distilly

Generate a reusable Agent Skill from a person description or source material.

Before you start

  • Distilly available in a compatible agent workflow.
  • A person to profile and an optional description or source material.

Steps

  1. Ask the agent to use Distilly to create a Person Profile for the person.

  2. Choose colleague, relationship or celebrity.

  3. Provide a description or source material; the documented workflow says every field is optional.

  4. Review the result and have Distilly generate the profile.

Expected outcome

A Person Profile packaged as an Agent Skill named for the character.

Guide limitations

  • The basic workflow does not detail advanced celebrity research setup; the project points to a separate install guide for that pipeline and its tools.
  • A specific agent-host integration is not demonstrated by this basic workflow.
