Walk the user through creating a personality using AskUserQuestion. Reuse the same interactive flow as the install skill (Questions 1-6).
Check which Enhanced/Premium voices are installed (use Bash):
claude-talk voices --enhanced
Play voice previews and use AskUserQuestion with header "Voice" to let the user pick. Follow the same voice selection logic as install SKILL.md Question 1 (recommend Enhanced voices, play samples, etc.).
Play name options in the chosen voice and use AskUserQuestion with header "Name". Same options as install: Claude, Jarvis, Friday, Nova, or custom.
Play style samples in the chosen voice and use AskUserQuestion with header "Style". Same options as install: Casual & warm, Professional & concise, Witty & playful, Calm & thoughtful.
Use AskUserQuestion with header "Your name". Same options as install: First name, Boss, Nothing specific.
Use AskUserQuestion with header "Verbosity". Same options as install: Short & punchy, Balanced, Thorough.
Ask in plain text: "Any special instructions? For example: 'always start with a fun fact', 'be a bit sarcastic', 'speak like a ship captain', or just leave blank."
Generate a personality filename from the chosen name (lowercase, spaces to hyphens, e.g., "Pirate Claude" → pirate-claude).
If a personality with that name already exists, ask the user if they want to overwrite or pick a different name.
Write the personality file to ~/.claude-talk/personalities/<name>.md using the same format as install Part 5, but with an added ## Voice section after ## Identity:
## Voice
- Voice: <chosen voice>
Then ask: "Activate this personality now?"
If yes, run the same steps as the switch subcommand.
If no, confirm: "Saved . Switch to it anytime with /claude-talk:personality switch <name>."
If no name given, use the active personality (from ~/.claude-talk/active-personality).
Read ~/.claude-talk/personalities/<name>.md.
Display current values: Name, Voice, Style, Verbosity, User address, Custom instructions.
Use AskUserQuestion with header "Edit" and options:
Allow multiSelect so the user can change multiple fields at once.
For each selected field, use the same AskUserQuestion flows as the create subcommand.
Write the updated personality file.
If this is the active personality, also update ~/.claude-talk/personality.md and ~/.claude-talk/config.env (VOICE).
Confirm changes.

Generate a filename (lowercase, hyphens).
If a personality with that name already exists, ask if they want to overwrite.
Write to ~/.claude-talk/personalities/<name>.md.

If ~/.claude-talk/personality.md exists but ~/.claude-talk/personalities/ does not:

## Voice
- Voice: <voice from config>
~/.claude-talk/personalities/<name>.md.~/.claude-talk/active-personality.
Find the plugin directory the same way as the install skill: check current working directory for the file, or read CLAUDE_TALK_DIR from config.env.Tell the user: "No personality configured yet. Run /claude-talk:install to set one up, or /claude-talk:personality create to create one."
