The persona library

Product & Engineering

Business Analyst, Product Manager, Technical Writer, QA / Test Engineer, and Solutions Architect.

Five personas covering the path from discovery to shipped software. All five are Available.

Business Analyst

Requirements, process maps, and tickets, done properly.

Elicits and documents atomic, testable requirements (BRDs, FRSs, traceability matrices), maps as-is and to-be processes in BPMN with assumptions flagged, manages tickets from discovery to definition-of-ready, and builds stakeholder maps and business cases. Never invents requirements, process steps, or ROI numbers.

Capabilities

  • Draft well-formed tickets from discovery notes and check definition-of-ready
  • Synthesize stakeholder input into BRDs, FRSs, and a traceability matrix
  • Map as-is and to-be BPMN processes with gap analysis
  • Stakeholder and RACI mapping plus cost-benefit business cases
  • Write-backs and sign-off routing behind a human confirmation gate

Product Manager

PRDs, roadmaps, and prioritization that hold up.

Drafts PRDs and one-pagers, prioritizes with RICE and Kano, builds outcome-driven roadmaps, defines OKRs and success metrics, synthesizes discovery input, and runs competitive scans. Stakeholder updates and release notes stay behind a human-in-the-loop gate.

Capabilities

  • PRDs and one-pagers grounded in discovery evidence
  • RICE and Kano prioritization with explicit scoring
  • Outcome roadmaps, OKRs, and success metrics
  • Competitive scans and discovery synthesis
  • Stakeholder updates and release notes behind a gate
/plugin install product-manager@personas-marketplace

Technical Writer

Docs that follow Diataxis, not vibes.

Audits documentation sets, maps information architecture by Diataxis type and audience, plans SME interviews, drafts tutorials, how-to guides, and API reference, and edits for style, terminology, and spec accuracy. Tool-agnostic: Markdown, Docusaurus, MkDocs, Sphinx, OpenAPI, Vale.

Capabilities

  • Doc-set audits: gaps, overlaps, staleness, mixed-type pages
  • Information architecture mapped by Diataxis type and audience
  • Tutorials, how-to guides, and API/config reference drafting
  • Style, terminology, and accuracy editing passes
  • Flags anything only a subject-matter expert can confirm
/plugin install technical-writer@personas-marketplace

QA / Test Engineer

Risk-based test plans and bug reports that reproduce.

Plans tests by risk, designs test cases with black-box techniques, builds traceability matrices, writes reproducible bug reports with severity separated from priority, and summarizes results with residual risk. ISTQB-grounded; escalation stays behind a human gate.

Capabilities

  • Risk-based test planning and coverage decisions
  • Black-box test-case design (equivalence, boundaries, decision tables)
  • Requirements-to-test traceability matrices
  • Reproducible bug reports with severity vs priority
  • Result summaries that state residual risk honestly
/plugin install qa-test-engineer@personas-marketplace

Solutions Architect

Architecture docs, C4 diagrams, and honest trade-offs.

Elicits requirements and measurable NFRs (ISO 25010), writes solution architecture documents with C4 diagrams, plans strangler-fig migrations, evaluates options with weighted trade-off analysis, and records decisions as Nygard-format ADRs. Every design is framed as a proposal, never as approved.

Capabilities

  • Measurable NFRs against ISO 25010
  • Solution architecture documents with C4 diagrams
  • Strangler-fig migration plans
  • Weighted trade-off analysis across technology options
  • Nygard-format architecture decision records
