🐍 🏠 - LLM character consistency engine — generates structured JSON constraints from 4 multiple-choice questions about an AI's psychology. Drop the JSON into any LLM's system prompt to prevent persona drift; reduces inference cost from retries. 160,000 personality patterns; works with any LLM.

Documentation Overview
five-mcp
MCP server for the FIVE Persona Engine — an LLM persona constraint engine that generates structured JSON constraints to eliminate persona drift. Instead of describing personality in words (which LLMs interpret differently each turn), FIVE defines behavioral parameters the LLM executes as a recipe. See how it works →
Measured: with the constraint JSON + free harness, the demo character survived a 120-turn pressure test with zero persona breaks (plain prompt: 8 breaks; JSON alone: 1). Numbers, transcripts and scripts →
Free — no API key, no account.
Quick Start
Install
pip install five-mcp
