clone-team

Generate AI personas from conversations for Claude Code review simulation.

Turn your Slack/chat history with teammates into AI personas that can review your code in their authentic voice.

Installation

npx clone-team@latest init

This creates:

• .claude/commands/analyze-persona.md - Command to generate personas
• .claude/commands/persona-review.md - Template for review commands
• personas/ - Directory for generated personas

Usage

1. Prepare a conversation

Export or copy a conversation with a teammate into a text file:

[2024-03-10 14:22]
You:
Should we use Redis or in-memory caching?

[2024-03-10 14:35]
Alex:
Depends on your scale. For a single instance, in-memory is fine...

2. Generate a persona

In Claude Code:

/analyze-persona conversations/alex-chat.txt

This analyzes the conversation and creates personas/Alex.md with:

• Communication style and typical phrases
• Technical philosophy and preferences
• Code review patterns
• Simulation instructions

3. Create a review command

npx clone-team add Alex

This creates /alex-review command.

4. Get reviews

/alex-review check the caching implementation in src/cache.ts

Claude will respond as Alex would, based on the persona profile.

Example

See templates/examples/ for a sample conversation and generated persona.

How it works

1. Analysis: Claude Code reads your conversation and extracts patterns - tone, technical preferences, decision-making style, what they typically push back on
2. Persona file: A structured markdown profile that captures the person's authentic voice
3. Simulation: The review command loads the persona and responds as that person would

Tips

• More conversation = better persona accuracy
• Include technical discussions, not just small talk
• Edit the generated persona to add context Claude couldn't infer
• Works best with people who have distinct communication styles

Privacy

Your conversations stay local. The persona files are just markdown in your repo - share or gitignore as needed.
