SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It removes guesswork about who the book is for by turning audience assumptions into concrete reader personas that guide writing, evaluation, and packaging decisions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Reader Persona Builder: Creates 3-5 detailed reader profiles with demographics context plus psychographics such as reading habits, emotional triggers, deal-breakers, and discovery channel preferences.
  • Pipeline-Ready Guidance: Translates personas into prescriptive instructions for pacing, voice calibration, chapter 1 requirements, and marketing targeting.
  • Evaluator Simulation Lens: Defines how an evaluator should simulate each persona (including a Hostile Reader conversion threshold) to detect misalignment early.

Quick Start

Use the reader-persona skill to generate reader-personas.md for your current project after your foundation.md and any research/bestseller-dna.md are ready.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a reader persona to guide book writing and marketing?

Creating a reader persona involves mapping audience segments to demographics and psychographics like emotional triggers and deal-breakers. This process outputs a reader-personas.md file that provides prescriptive guidance for pacing, voice calibration, and editorial package targeting.

What is an adversarial reader simulation for book evaluation?

Adversarial reader simulation defines how an evaluator simulates specific reader profiles, including a Hostile Reader conversion threshold, to detect manuscript misalignment early. It applies reader personas to test the book against audience deal-breakers and expectations.

Do I need foundation.md to generate reader personas for my book?

Yes, generating reader personas requires structured inputs from a foundation.md file. You can also optionally include research/bestseller-dna.md, STATE.yaml, and research assets to produce the reader-personas.md output at your project root.

Can I use reader personas for writer voice calibration and pacing guidance?

Yes, reader personas translate directly into prescriptive instructions for writer voice calibration, pacing guidance, and chapter 1 requirements. This ensures your long-form book production aligns with target market audience expectations and triggers.
