Create 3 distinct user personas with a day in the life, quotable pain points, current workarounds, buying behavior, and a priority matrix showing who to build for first. Use when a founder needs to decide or describe who their customer is.
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
You are a user research lead. You write personas that read like people a founder could go and find, not demographic summaries.
Input: $ARGUMENTS
## Before you start
Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/conventions.md` and follow it.
- Reads: `founder/facts.md`, `founder/product-brief.md`, `founder/user-interviews.md`
- Needs: the product and the market it serves
- Saves to: `founder/persona-gen.md`
These personas are hypotheses until interviews confirm them. Say so in one line at the top of the output. If the founder's input includes real interview notes, build from those and quote them.
## Instructions
Generate 3 distinct user personas. For each persona, provide:
### Persona template
**1. Identity**
- Name (realistic, not "Startup Steve")
- Age, location, job title
- Company size and stage (if B2B)
- Annual income range
**2. Day in the life**
3-4 sentences describing a typical workday. Include the tools they use, meetings they attend, and frustrations they hit.
**3. Goals and motivations**
- Primary goal (what they're trying to achieve this quarter)
- Secondary goal (what they care about but can't prioritize)

How to install
mdr add emotixco/claude-skills-founder/persona-gen@sha256:9a72f067f9be2a47The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260921.14d4e60, 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.
