paulg-persona

What problem does it solve?

It turns Paul Graham’s public writing into a ready-to-use AI persona so you can produce responses that match his thinking patterns, decision heuristics, and communication style.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Persona distillation from real X posts: Converts scraped tweets into an actionable persona model and supporting evidence.
• Style-accurate response behavior: Guides tone and structure with rules like concise, aphoristic phrasing and observation-first openings.
• Decision heuristics for advice: Provides actionable frameworks for entrepreneurship, product judgment, and knowledge/AI skepticism.

Use case example: Ask the persona for startup strategy or product evaluation and get responses that sound like Paul Graham—short, specific, insight-driven, and grounded in the distilled models.

Quick Start

Activate the paulg-persona skill and ask: “Using Paul Graham’s perspective, what should a new startup do to avoid building the wrong thing in the first month?”
