Writing Profile — Writer-BTI Assessment

A psychometric-style skill that builds a 7-dimension profile of the user's writing taste and preferences. The output is both a shareable type label (e.g. ENTP-R · 杂文家) and a continuous vector that downstream writing skills consume to match the user's voice.

Designed as a plan → run → finalize state machine with independent, resumable test units — each dimension gets its own methodology file and session file, loaded only when that dimension is being tested. This keeps context scoped so an 84-question assessment doesn't blow the window.

Why this exists

Generic AI writing has "AI 味" — stacked hedges, three-part parallels, metaphor decoration, balanced non-committal endings. Those aren't inherently wrong; they're wrong for this person if this person writes punchy committed prose. To strip AI味, the AI needs to know what "this person's voice" actually is — not as self-report ("I like clear writing"), but as a measured preference vector inferred from the user's reactions to real literature across genres.

The profile is genre-agnostic. A writer's core taste — rhythm, density, irony tolerance, classical-vernacular balance — is stable across technical articles, blogs, and diaries. Genre-specific knobs (formality, pronoun density) are adjusted by each downstream writing skill; the baseline comes from here.

Commands

围绕 3 件事组织：做测试、看结果、用结果。

主命令：

Argument	Dispatch target	用途
(无参数)	commands/dispatch.md	智能分发：首次→plan→W1→…→finalize→显示画像；中途→接着跑；完成→显示画像。最常用的入口
show	commands/show.md	展示 + 解读：测试完成后看结果的地方。不只 dump 坐标——读出画像在表达什么、和哪些作家近/远、写作中会自然偏向什么
retest	commands/retest.md	重做。无参 = 全部重测（二次确认）；retest W3 或直接 W3 = 单维度重测
W1 – W7	references/phases/run-unit.md	retest W<N> 的快捷形式，也用于首次测 / 恢复进行中的单维度
review <path>	commands/review.md	用画像审查/改进一篇文档：读目标文档，询问体裁和目的，按坐标 + 机械反 AI 清单给出修改建议

内部阶段方法论（不是命令，dispatch/retest 按需加载）：

• references/phases/plan.md — meta-intake + 生成 state.md，首次由 dispatch 调用
• references/phases/finalize.md — 合成 profile.md，所有单元完成后自动触发（或 retest 后重算）

type 码分享由 show 在输出末尾给出一行可复制的 ENTP-R · 杂文家 (王小波 × 鲁迅杂文)，不再单独走命令。想彻底清掉画像数据可以直接 rm -rf ~/.claude/writing-profile/。

典型使用路径

首次建画像：一路 /writing-profile 直到出画像

/writing-profile          # 启动：plan → 跑 W1
/writing-profile          # 接着：跑 W2
...
/writing-profile          # W7 完 → 自动 finalize → 显示画像

看结果与解读：/writing-profile show
重测单维度：/writing-profile W3（或 /writing-profile retest W3）
全部重测：/writing-profile retest
用画像审文档：/writing-profile review drafts/article.md

The 7 dimensions — organized in 3 construct layers

Writer's voice = stable preferences stacked across three distinct layers. Each layer measures a different kind of thing; this framing (see references/psychometric-foundations.md for theory) is what prevents cross-layer confusion in the question design.

L1 认知启动 (Cognitive operation — 最稳定)

How the mind moves during writing: where attention lands, how decisions get made.

Code	Name	Ends	Heritage
W1	Sensing ↔ iNtuition	S / N	MBTI S/N (closest to original meaning, restricted to writing cognition)
W2	Thinking ↔ Feeling	T / F	MBTI T/F (same)

L2 文本姿态 (Textual stance — 中等稳定)

How the finished text relates to the reader: direction of address, degree of closure.

Code	Name	Ends	Heritage
W3	Extraversion ↔ Introversion	E / I	MBTI E/I letter, construct redefined: 发言姿态朝外/朝内 (reader-addressed vs self-addressed), not social energy
W4	Judging ↔ Perceiving	J / P	MBTI J/P letter, construct redefined: 文本收束度 (closed/open structure), not lifestyle

L3 审美偏好 (Aesthetic preference — 需要暴露前提)

Learned taste for what's read and written. Requires baseline exposure to measure.

Code	Name	Ends	Heritage
W5	致密 ↔ 疏朗 (Density)	D / L	Writing-specific
W6	严肃 ↔ 反讽 (Grave ↔ Humor)	G / H	Writing-specific
W7	文言 ↔ 白话 (Classical ↔ Vernacular)	C / V	Chinese-specific · conditional dimension (see below)

W7 is a conditional dimension: 审美偏好只能在"已有暴露"前提下测得。若用户对古典文学暴露度不足，W7 记为 null（不可测），副字计算退化。详见 references/dimensions/W7-classical-vernacular.md。

Each dimension has a dedicated methodology file under references/dimensions/. The agent reads only the active dimension's file when running that unit.

W5+W6+W7 combine into a single enumerated "副字" (one of A/C/W/R/Z/M/D/H) for the type label. See references/type-archetypes.md. When W7 is null, the副字 falls back to defaulting on the vernacular side (less classical-education-biased), and the profile marks C_V: null so downstream skills know not to push classical register.

⚠️ MBTI 字母是重诠释别名，不是 MBTI 人格测量

W1-W4 借用 S/N/T/F/E/I/J/P 是因为这 4 维在写作域的极性与 MBTI 原构念同构，保留字母便于记忆与分享。但构念已重定义：

• E/I：发言姿态（朝外/朝内），不是社交能量来源
• J/P：文本收束度（封闭/开放），不是生活方式
• S/N、T/F：最接近 MBTI 原义，但只取"写作时的认知启动"部分，不推及人格整体

若你是 MBTI 爱好者，这里的结果不能直接套用你的人格测量结果——两个量表测的不是同一个东西。见 references/psychometric-foundations.md 的"三层构念"论证。

Type label format

ENTP-R · 杂文家

• First 4 letters: standard MBTI code from W1-W4
• Single letter after dash: encodes W5/W6/W7 combination
• After ·: a recognizable Chinese style category (not an invented label)

副字	中文类别	维度组合
A	学院派	致密-严肃-文言
C	思辨派	致密-严肃-白话
W	才子派	致密-反讽-文言
R	杂文家	致密-反讽-白话
Z	抒情派	疏朗-严肃-文言
M	平实派	疏朗-严肃-白话
D	小品派	疏朗-反讽-文言
H	段子派	疏朗-反讽-白话

Type labels are shareable summaries of the underlying vector, not identity claims. Two writers with slightly different vectors may share a label; the agent always consumes the vector, not the label.

Methodology principles

Inherited from MBTI (the defensible parts):

• Forced-choice between equally-valid alternatives — eliminates "都还行" responses
• Multi-item per dimension (target ≥ 10 items) for reliability
• Reverse-keyed items (~30% of items per dimension) to catch careless answering
• Dimensional structure (7 axes, not one global score)

Rejected from MBTI (pop-psych parts):

• Type fatalism ("you are forever INTJ")
• Function stacking (Ni-Te-Fi-Se)
• Strict dichotomization — we keep continuous scores internally; labels are only summaries

Added from Big Five / IRT:

• Continuous scores with confidence bands (not just binary picks)
• "Middle type" allowed when |score| ≤ 2 — the user is genuinely flexible on that axis

Agent behavior during run:

• Never use a fixed question bank. Generate excerpts and questions on the fly, following strategy in references/excerpt-strategy.md and the active dimension's methodology file.
• Use real authors, real texts. Excerpts must be actual passages, not AI-confected "in the style of X." Cite attribution only after the user answers, to prevent prestige bias.
• Keep one dimension active per session. When running W1, don't load W2-W7 methodology files. This is how context stays scoped for 80+ questions.
• Record every answer verbatim in the unit file. The session file is the source of truth; the agent's working memory is volatile.
• Stop a dimension early if confidence is high before the question cap. Sliding scale (see references/signal-interpretation.md).

Consumer contract

Downstream writing skills read ~/.claude/writing-profile/profile.md. The file's top YAML block (## 坐标) is the stable machine-readable contract; the rest is human-facing explanation.

How a genre skill adapts this baseline to its own genre — the clamp/shift/amplify framework, genre-specific extras, two-pass application, and fallback contract — is specified in references/genre-adaptation.md. Skill authors building new writing genres should read it before integrating.

# Example contract block from profile.md
S_N: +7       # -10 to +10, positive = N
T_F: -2
E_I: +5
J_P: +6
D_L: -4       # W5: positive = Dense (致密), negative = Light (疏朗)
G_H: -8       # W6: positive = Grave (严肃), negative = Humor (反讽)
C_V: -3       # W7: positive = Classical (文言), negative = Vernacular (白话)
type: ENTP-R
confidence:
  S_N: high
  T_F: medium
  ...

The profile file also contains a "机械反 AI 清单" — concrete banned phrases and patterns derived from the user's axes, to be executed during the revision phase of any writing task.

Fallback when no profile exists

If a downstream writing skill activates and no profile exists at ~/.claude/writing-profile/profile.md, suggest (don't force) that the user run /writing-profile to calibrate. Writing should proceed with generic defaults if they decline — a profile improves output but isn't a hard prerequisite.
