personas
This skill provides 20 AI personas and loads persona prompts from local data/*.md files. It contains explicit shell commands (e.g., touch ~/clawd/skills/personas/data/your-persona.md) and publishing/network steps (clawhub publish, git push origin v1.1.0) that invoke local shell and network operations.
