System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Generates concrete, data-driven reader personas that define audience segments for a manuscript project. These personas inform multiple agents in the pipeline (Writer, Evaluator, Packager, Chaos Engine) to align voice, pacing, and messaging with real reader needs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Persona templates: 3 mandatory personas (PRIMARY READER, STRETCH READER, HOSTILE READER) and optional niche/generation readers, each with comprehensive fields (demographics, reading psychology, emotional triggers, discovery and purchase signals, and cross-channel implications).
  • Input-driven construction: Leverages inputs from foundation.md, market and research data, and STATE.yaml to ground personas in genre, engagement type, and project metadata.
  • Outputs and downstream use: Produces a single reader-personas.md file at project root; informs Writer Instructions, Evaluator simulations (4-reader), and Packager marketing briefs; guides Chaos Engine conflicts.

Quick Start

Run the audience analysis step and save the resulting personas to reader-personas.md in the project root.
