# Persona Library Design Spec

> See implementation plan for details. This doc captures approved decisions.

## Goal
Platform-agnostic LLM persona library with 29 personas covering cyber, intelligence, military, law, economics, history, linguistics, engineering, academia, medicine, and strategy.

## Decisions
- **Format:** YAML frontmatter + markdown body (master) → auto-generated .yaml and .json
- **Source:** Refactor 6 existing OpenClaw personas + 23 new
- **Naming:** Code-names preferred, mixed with real names when fitting
- **Folder:** `personas/<codename>/general.md`, `personas/<codename>/<variant>.md`
- **Metadata:** `personas/<codename>/_meta.yaml`
- **Build:** Python script generates .yaml/.json from .md masters
- **Depth:** Cyber + Intelligence = 16 personas (primary focus)

## Persona Roster (29 total)
