Use when creating or editing a persona in src/agent-src/personas/ — voice / focus / unique questions / output expectations — even when the user just says 'add a reviewer voice for X'.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
<!-- cloud_safe: degrade -->
# persona-writing
## When to use
* Creating a new persona file in
`src/agent-src/personas/{id}.md`
* Rewriting an existing persona (focus shift, output-expectation
change — not a typo fix)
* Deciding whether a new reviewer voice should be a persona at all
(vs. a skill of its own)
Do NOT use this skill when:
* The content is a multi-step workflow → use
[`skill-writing`](../skill-writing/SKILL.md)
* The content is a hard obligation the agent must always honor → use
[`rule-writing`](../rule-writing/SKILL.md)
* The content describes the project's role-mode contract → that lives
in `docs/guidelines/agent-infra/role-contracts.md`, not in personas
## Persona vs skill vs role-mode — critical test
| Intent | Artifact |
|---|---|
| "Agent should review through a specific lens" | **Persona** |
| "Agent should run a multi-step workflow" | **Skill** |
| "Agent's closing contract differs by role" | **Role-mode** (contract file) |
A persona is **passive reference content** — it never triggers by
description, never appears in `<available_skills>`. Skills cite
personas via the `personas:` frontmatter key.
## Procedure
### 0. Drafting protocol
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add event4u-app/agent-config/persona-writing@sha256:8c8bfe79b0020e90The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260803.fa70e38, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
