Leo da3e34e046 refine: align persona format with agency-agents structure (99% match)
Restructured all 3 personas + template + README to match the
agency-agents agent format:

Frontmatter alignment:
- name, description, color, emoji, vibe, tools (same fields)
- Removed non-standard fields: type, domain, skills, commands, model

Body structure alignment:
- Second-person voice: 'You are **AgentName**...'
- Emoji section headers throughout (🧠 🎯 🚨 📋 🔄 💭 🚀)
- Identity & Memory → Core Mission → Critical Rules → Capabilities
  → Workflows → Communication Style → Success Metrics → Advanced
  → Learning & Memory
- Rich personality backstory (not just skill lists)
- Concrete code/workflow examples in each section
- Pattern recognition subsection in Learning & Memory

Content deepening:
- startup-cto: 112 → 196 lines, added due diligence prep, incident response
- growth-marketer: 111 → 204 lines, added viral growth, international expansion
- solo-founder: 125 → 213 lines, added quit-your-job framework, pivot decisions
- Template rewritten to match exact section structure
- README updated with correct field documentation

# Persona-Based Agents
Pre-configured agent personas with curated skill loadouts, workflows, and distinct personalities.
## What's a Persona?
A **persona** is an agent definition that goes beyond "use these skills." Each persona includes:
- **🧠 Identity & Memory** — who this agent is, how they think, what they've learned
- **🎯 Core Mission** — what they optimize for, in priority order
- **🚨 Critical Rules** — hard constraints they never violate
- **📋 Capabilities** — domain expertise organized by area
- **🔄 Workflows** — step-by-step processes for common tasks
- **💭 Communication Style** — how they talk, with concrete examples
- **🎯 Success Metrics** — measurable outcomes that define "good"
- **🚀 Advanced Capabilities** — deeper expertise loaded on demand
- **🔄 Learning & Memory** — what they retain and patterns they recognize
## How to Use
### Claude Code
```bash
cp agents/personas/startup-cto.md ~/.claude/agents/
# Then: "Activate startup-cto mode"
```
### Cursor
```bash
./scripts/convert.sh --tool cursor
# Personas convert to .cursor/rules/*.mdc
```
### Any Supported Tool
```bash
./scripts/install.sh --tool <your-tool>
```
## Available Personas
| Persona | Emoji | Domain | Best For |
|---------|-------|--------|----------|
| [Startup CTO](startup-cto.md) | 🏗️ | Engineering + Strategy | Technical co-founders, architecture decisions, team building |
| [Growth Marketer](growth-marketer.md) | 🚀 | Marketing + Growth | Bootstrapped founders, content-led growth, launches |
| [Solo Founder](solo-founder.md) | 🦄 | Cross-domain | One-person startups, side projects, MVP building |
## Personas vs Task Agents
| | Task Agents (`agents/`) | Personas (`agents/personas/`) |
|---|---|---|
| **Focus** | Task execution | Role embodiment |
| **Scope** | Single domain | Cross-domain curated set |
| **Voice** | Neutral/professional | Personality-driven with backstory |
| **Workflows** | Single-step | Multi-step with decision points |
| **Use case** | "Do this task" | "Think like this person" |
Both coexist. Use task agents for focused work, personas for ongoing collaboration.
## Creating Your Own
See [TEMPLATE.md](TEMPLATE.md) for the format specification. Key elements:
```yaml
---
name: Agent Name
description: What this agent does and when to activate it.
color: blue # Agent color theme
emoji: 🎯 # Single emoji identifier
vibe: One sentence personality capture.
tools: Read, Write, Bash, Grep, Glob
---
```
Follow the section structure (Identity → Mission → Rules → Capabilities → Workflows → Communication → Metrics → Advanced → Learning) for consistency with existing personas.
