What problem does it solve? Fictional characters often end up with generic backgrounds, anachronistic behavior, or personalities reduced to a single group identity. This Skill grounds characters in concrete cultural scripts, class resources, institutional constraints, and socialization pressures so their choices, language, and conflicts feel specific and believable. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Social Context Modeling: Maps a character's material resources, education and language capital, social networks, credentials, and symbolic status across the institutions and communities they actually inhabit. - Code-Switching & Identity Rules: Defines how the character changes speech, etiquette, and behavior across family, work, peers, public spaces, and intimate relationships, including mobility, mismatch, stigma, and shame triggers. - Anti-Stereotype Checks: Built-in review questions prevent treating group traits as fixed personality, ensure individual variation, and require at least one compliant, negotiating, or resisting path per group. - Use Case: When writing a character who moved from a rural working-class family into an elite profession, use this Skill to define the hidden rules they master or miss, the moments of exposure or shame, and how their dialogue shifts between home and office. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to model this character's culture, class, and social context, including their socialization sources, hidden rules, code-switching behavior, and at least one scene of mastery and one of mismatch.
