anyone-skill

Distill anyone into a runnable OpenPersona skill pack — real or fictional, personal or public, living or historical.

What it does

anyone-skill is a distillation front-end for OpenPersona. It guides an AI agent through:

1. Collecting source material (chat logs, documents, public content, creative works)
2. Extracting a 4-dimension persona (Procedure · Interaction · Memory · Personality)
3. Grading evidence (L1 direct quote → L4 inspired)
4. Generating a full OpenPersona persona pack via skills/open-persona

The output is a portable, evolvable persona you can install and run with any OpenPersona-compatible agent.

Subject types

Type	Examples
Yourself	digital self-archive
Someone you know	colleague, friend, family, partner, ex
Public figure	entrepreneur, artist, athlete, politician
Fictional character	game, anime, novel, film, series
Historical figure	relies on documents and biographies
Archetype	composite persona, no single real subject

Distillation pipeline

Phase 0  Classify subject (6 types)
Phase 1  Ethics & copyright check         → references/ethics.md
Phase 2  3-question intake
Phase 3  Collect source material
Phase 4  4-dimension extraction
         Procedure · Interaction · Memory · Personality
Phase 5  Evidence grading (L1–L4)
Phase 6  Generate OpenPersona skill pack  → references/output-format.md
         via skills/open-persona + openpersona create
Phase 7  Evolve (add data · correct · rollback)
