persona-gen skillA

persona-gen is agent-read markdown (skill) from emotixco/claude-skills-founder: 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..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns 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)
…
