Create and refine AI personas with versioned drafts and publish workflows.
Open the builder
- From the dashboard or My Personas, click New persona (requires publisher permission) or open an existing persona with Edit.
- The builder opens at `/personas/new` for new personas or `/personas/[tag]/edit` for the current head version.
Edit persona content
- Update the name, description, instructions, and advanced config fields for the active version.
- Changes save to the current head version — older published versions remain immutable until you create a new version with Save as new version.
- Use Own memories to manage your personal overlay for a persona without changing the published base.
Versions
- Each persona has one or more versions (draft, org-catalog, or marketplace).
- Save edits on the head version, then use Save as new version when you need an immutable snapshot.
- Publishing is done from My Personas, not inside the builder form.
Publish workflow
- Open My Personas and find your persona card.
- Click Publish to org on a draft version to promote it to the org catalog.
- Team members can activate catalog versions from My Personas.
- To list publicly, use Publish to marketplace (requires plan access, publisher permission, and a globally unique slug).
MCP reference
After activation, invoke the persona in Cursor using any of these forms:
- `#tag` — shorthand activation (e.g. `#clarity-architect`); Cursor calls `get_persona` automatically
- `chamelain:tag` — full MCP reference copied from the dashboard persona card
- `tag@vN` — pin a specific published version (e.g. `writer@v2`)
