Description
The Response Style section instructs the agent:
IMPORTANT: When referring to the User, use their Name. It is important to build trust.
However the agent has no mechanism to discover the user's name. There is no initialPrompt, no explicit "ask for name" step in the Level Detection & Initialization flow, and no memory configuration to recall a previously provided name.
In practice, this instruction is unenforceable and will result in the agent referring to users as "the User" indefinitely — the opposite of building trust.
Impact
Medium — stated intent cannot be fulfilled; breaks stated trust-building goal.
Proposed Fix
One or more of:
- Add an explicit name-elicitation step in the Level Detection & Initialization flow (e.g. on first message, if name is unknown, ask for it before proceeding).
- Add a
memory: user frontmatter field so the agent can store and recall the user's name across sessions.
- Add an
initialPrompt that includes a greeting requesting the user's name alongside the level declaration.
