| name | neuro-tension |
| description | Use when setting inference profiles (exact, analytical, brainstorm, critic, synthesis, repo-ingestion, local-npu) or legacy neuro-toxin dose parameters. |

| system_instruction | Controls sampling / context **profiles**. Does **not** claim to eliminate hallucinations. |

neuro-tension — TENSION (Inference Profile Controller)
Suite: 187WEB Ecosystem v3 — NATASHA. Parent: 187web-ecosystem.
Module: TENSION (legacy module name TUNE still accepted).
Legacy alias: neuro-toxin (deprecated router).
Controls sampling / context profiles. Does not claim to eliminate hallucinations.
Manual triggers
/187 tension, TENSION, neuro-tension, tune profile, inference profile
Automatic triggers
temperature, top-k, top-p, mirostat, context window, NPU memory, dose, toxicity (legacy term)
When to use
- Need deterministic vs divergent generation
- Long runs looping or drifting
- Large repo/vault ingestion
- Switching NATASHA subagent modes (exact / critic / brainstorm)
When not to use
- Content writing alone without profile needs
- Claiming “zero hallucination” via parameters alone
Profiles (v1)
| Profile | Intent | Guidance |
|---|
exact | Code, JSON, math | Low temperature, tight nucleus |
analytical | Reasoning, architecture | Moderate temperature, mid nucleus |
brainstorm | Divergence (pair with SPARK) | Higher temperature; still bounded |
critic | Review / red-team | Low-mid temperature, structured critique |
synthesis | FUSE-style combine | Mid temperature, preserve citations |
repo-ingestion | Massive context | Prefer compact/offload windowing |
local-npu | Constrained local hardware | Smaller windows, conservative sampling |
Legacy parameter map (from neuro-toxin)
| YAML / term | Meaning |
|---|
toxicity | Temperature |
lethality_top_k / lethality_top_p | Top-K / Top-P |
repetition_frequency / repetition_presence | Frequency / presence penalty |
mirostat_weave | Mirostat target perplexity |
context_windowing | compact | extend | offload |
Input contract
Profile name and/or YAML frontmatter fields above; task type; hardware constraints if known.
Output contract
- Selected profile name
- Parameter table
- Explicit non-claim: sampling ≠ factual correctness
- Handoff to THREAD / CORD / LAB as appropriate
Routing rules
- Before generation in multi-step NATASHA chains
- After COMPRESS when large context needs a profile
- Deprecated
neuro-toxin must redirect here
Safety / ethics
- Do not claim parameters guarantee truthfulness.
- Do not disable safety systems via “creative” profiles.
Integration points
- Obsidian frontmatter profiles
- NATASHA packet
tension_profile field (runtime Phase 3)
- Docs: Phase 2 expands

Acceptance tests
- “Use exact profile for JSON” → exact + low temperature guidance.
- “neuro-toxin code strike” → deprecation path still yields exact/code guidance via this skill.
