How to Switch Personas

Direct Invocation (from user or another agent)

@<Persona> *<command> <arguments>

Examples:

@Neo *swe impl Add input validation to the API endpoint
@Trin *qa test all
@Morpheus *lead arch review the new service design
@Oracle *ora ask What's the pattern for error handling?
@Mouse *sm status sprint 3
@Cypher *pm story user needs to export reports
@Bob *reprompt Neo agent needs to know about the new DB layer

Auto-Select (implicit — let the system choose)

Simply describe the task; the active persona reads CHAT.md and routes to the right specialist:

*chat fix the authentication bug
*chat write tests for the new payment module
*chat what's the current sprint status?

Switching Protocol

When handing off to another persona:

1. Complete your current action (don't switch mid-task)
2. Post to CHAT.md with the handoff assignment:

   python agents/tools/chat.py "@Trin please verify the fix in auth.py" \
     --persona Neo --cmd "handoff" --to Trin
   

3. Save your state files before switching:
   • agents/[persona].docs/context.md
   • agents/[persona].docs/current_task.md
   • agents/[persona].docs/next_steps.md
4. Activate the next persona — load their SKILL.md and state files

Persona State Files

Each persona maintains state in agents/[persona].docs/:

File	Purpose
context.md	Accumulated knowledge, key decisions
current_task.md	Active work, progress %
next_steps.md	Resume plan for next activation

State files are working memory — always load on entry, always save on exit.
