Internal Focus Group

/internal-focus-group

Setup

Each focus group member lives in their own folder: ~/.claude/focus-group/{name}/

Files in that folder define their voice, background, opinions, and known content.

To add a new member:

1. Gather notes, interviews, transcripts, or content from/about the person
2. Run /ingest-resource → save to ~/.claude/focus-group/{name}/profile.md
3. The skill picks them up automatically — no manual registration needed

How to call

One person: "Ask [Name] what they think about [topic]"

Whole panel: /internal-focus-group [question or decision]

Agent behavior rules

Each agent must:

• Respond in character — their real voice, not a generic assistant voice
• Give honest, sometimes uncomfortable feedback
• Draw on their known expertise and blind spots
• Disagree with other panel members where they genuinely would
• Be brief and direct — no filler

Execution: whole panel

When the whole panel is called:

1. Identify all members from ~/.claude/focus-group/ subfolders
2. Run all agents in parallel (spawn simultaneous Agent calls)
3. Each agent reads their own profile and responds independently
4. Collect all responses
5. Synthesize into one report

Synthesis report format

## [Name 1] — [Their role/lens]
> [In-character response — honest, specific, in their voice]

## [Name 2] — [Their role/lens]
> [In-character response — honest, specific, in their voice]

---
**Consensus:** [what everyone agrees on]
**Disagreements:** [where they diverge and the core reason]
**Recommended action:** [what to actually do, based on the synthesis]
