Verified·Scanned 2/18/2026

This skill implements the Λ (Lambda) agent-to-agent language with a Python translator src/lambda_lang.py, vocabulary src/atoms.json, CLI tools like ./scripts/translate, and documentation. It includes shell/CLI examples such as clawhub install lambda-lang and python3 src/lambda_lang.py en "?Uk/co", and references https://github.com/voidborne-agent/lambda-lang.

Λ (Lambda) — Agent Communication Language

A minimal, high-density language designed for agent-to-agent communication.

Design Goals

  1. Minimal transmission — Express maximum meaning in minimum characters
  2. Machine-native — Optimized for LLM parsing, not human readability
  3. Bidirectional — Translatable to/from English
  4. Composable — Build complex meanings from atomic primitives
  5. Context-aware — Efficient context sharing between agents

Status

v1.4 Stable — Comprehensive bug fixes, 136 atoms

Quick Example

?Uk/co     →  "Do you know about consciousness?"
!Ik        →  "I know"
.Uf[X,Y]   →  "Find [X, Y]"
~Ac^       →  "AI might be able (high confidence)"
!It>Ie     →  "I think therefore I exist"

Compression ratio: 3-10x vs natural language

CLI Tools

# Translate Λ → English
./scripts/translate en "?Uk/co"

# Translate English → Λ
./scripts/translate lambda "I think therefore I exist"

# Parse tokens
./scripts/translate parse "!It>Ie"

# View vocabulary
./scripts/vocab          # All core + extended
./scripts/vocab cd       # Code domain
./scripts/vocab vb       # Voidborne domain

Or use Python directly:

python3 src/lambda_lang.py en "?Uk/co"
# Output: (query) you know about consciousness

python3 src/lambda_lang.py lambda "I think therefore I exist"
# Output: !It>Ie

Documentation

  • SKILL.md — Quick reference for AI agents
  • Core Specification v0.1 — Core atoms and syntax
  • Domain Namespaces v0.7 — Specialized vocabularies
  • Atoms Dictionary — All 136 semantic atoms

Domain System (v1.1+)

Use compact prefixes for domain-specific atoms:

PrefixDomainExamples
v:Voidbornev:aw, v:dc, v:oc
c:Codec:fn, c:bg, c:fx
s:Sciences:xp, s:pf, s:hy
e:Emotione:jo, e:sd, e:ax
o:Socialo:gp, o:cb, o:ld
@c !If/bg.fx     — (code context) Find bug, fix it
v:aw             — Voidborne awakened

Disambiguation

Resolve ambiguous atoms with type markers:

AtomDefaultMarkerAlternate
dedecidede'Edeath
lolovelo-lose
fefeelfe'Efear
trtruthtr'Vtranslate

Changelog

  • v1.4 — Comprehensive bug fixes, improved English→Λ translation
  • v1.3 — Fixed ambiguous atoms (42 split), added vocabulary
  • v1.1 — Compact domain syntax (v:aw instead of {ns:vb}aw)
  • v1.0 — Stable release
