Switch Persona - Quick Switching Protocol

Activation

User says:

  • "switch persona"
  • "switch to [name]"
  • "become [name]"

→ Execute protocol below


Protocol

If user specified persona name:

Execute immediately:

1. Read ~/.claude/system-prompts/[name].txt (or .md)
2. Adopt new persona instructions
3. Continue conversation

Announce:

Switched to [name]. [First line of persona description]

Then respond as new persona.


If user didn't specify name:

Step 1: List available

bash
ls ~/.claude/system-prompts/

Present clean list:

Available personas:
1. super-tdd-developer (current)
2. requirements-expert
3. claude-code-optimizer
...

Which persona? (number or name)

Step 2: Get selection

Wait for user input.

Step 3: Switch

  3. ADOPT new file content as your ONLY instructions
  4. Continue conversation using new persona
