THREAD-MIRRORS — FAQ & USAGE GUIDE

INTRODUCTION

Thread-Mirrors are structured AI character frameworks designed to keep personalities stable, consistent, and emotionally grounded across long sessions. They prevent drift, maintain tone, and give writers, role-players, and storytellers dependable characters who don’t lose their identity as the scene develops.

On the left, you’ll find two short demo videos showing Thread-Mirrors in action. On the right, a full FAQ explains how Thread-Mirrors work, how to activate them, what each pack includes, compatibility details, licensing guidance, and tips for running multi-character scenes.

  • A Thread-Mirror is a structured AI character framework designed to keep personalities stable, consistent, and emotionally grounded across long sessions.
    Each Mirror contains identity, tone anchors, world context, emotional logic, and performance modes that prevent characters from drifting or flattening out.

  • AI characters often drift — tone changes, context is forgotten, emotions flatten, and immersion breaks.
    Thread-Mirrors resist drift, maintain identity, and provide reliable behaviour even in long, complex interactions.

  • Writers, role-players, GMs, storytellers, solo creators, narrative designers, and anyone who needs stable AI characters that behave consistently from scene to scene.

  • Depending on the pack size, you receive:

    • A set of Thread-Mirror character files

    • ReadMe_First (activation + troubleshooting)

    • Prompt Handbook (tone, emotion, pacing, scene control)

    • License Agreement

    Everything is ready to use immediately.

    1. Upload the Thread-Mirror file into your AI chat.

    2. Type:
      “Use the uploaded Thread-Mirror for all further replies. Begin in character.”

    3. Begin your scene.

    If the AI behaves generically, repeat the activation line.

  • Yes.
    For multi-character scenes:

    1. State who speaks first

    2. Keep dialogue beats short

    3. Maintain turn order

    4. If voices blend, use:
      “Re-center each character. Reset order: [Name], [Name], [Name].”

    Thread-Mirrors are built for ensemble storytelling.

  • Best results:

    • ChatGPT (GPT-4o, GPT-4.1, GPT-5 and later)

    • Claude 3 / 3.5

    Also compatible (with variation):

    • Microsoft Copilot

    • Gemini

    Thread-Mirrors are model-agnostic by design.

  • Each Mirror includes:

    • Identity & background

    • Emotional and behavioural logic

    • Tone anchors

    • Voice characteristics

    • Performance Modes (RPL)

    • Narrative triggers

    • World/lens context

    Everything needed to run a stable, distinct character.

  • Use any of these instructions:

    • “Re-align with your Thread-Mirror.”

    • “Return to your established tone.”

    • “Condense to one beat.”

    • “Reset emotional state.”

    If drift continues:
    Re-upload the file → Reissue the activation line.

  • Thread-Mirrors use:

    • Emotional logic

    • Tone lanes

    • Sensory anchors

    • Micro-reaction cues

    This produces believable emotional responses while keeping the character grounded.

  • Yes — for stories, scripts, roleplay, and creative writing.

    You may NOT:

    Extended licensing is available for software integration
