Individual skill
mocked-persona-interview
Use when real user interviews aren't possible (solo/hobby/dogfood projects) but persona work is still needed. Enforces epistemic discipline: adversarial spectrum, pre-committed stop conditions, speculation tagging. NOT a substitute for /mycelium:user-interview when real users are available.

# Mocked Persona Interview Skill
A disciplined alternative to real user interviews when:
- You're a solo developer and cannot talk to users this week
- You're on a hobby/learning project with no user research budget
- You're running a meta-project dogfood session (see `dogfood_modifier`)
- You're in early L0/L1 exploration where real interviews are premature
**This skill is NOT a substitute for `/mycelium:user-interview` when real users are available.** Mocked personas are simulation. They catch some mistakes, miss others, and — without discipline — become a confirmation-bias machine. This skill's job is to enforce the discipline.
## Preflight: Read target canvas file(s) before any Write/Edit
**Hard rule.** Before issuing `Write` or `Edit` against any `.claude/canvas/*.yml`, use the **Read tool** on that file in this session. Claude Code's Read-before-Write check requires the `Read` tool specifically — `cat`/`head`/`grep` via Bash do NOT satisfy it.
