 "how_to_use": [
  "Add the pack to your AI as a skill. Or open a new chat and paste SKILL.md, then references/source-agent.md.",
  "Paste your character notes and a few scenes or lines. Say the one question you want answered.",
  "Say 'Profile this character. Do not invent a backstory.' Your AI asks once for what is missing.",
  "Read the list of behaviors it found first. Fix anything it got wrong before you read the profile.",
  "Check the profile against your story. Keep what fits and ask for a second reading where it does not.",
  "Save the profile with your story notes. Paste it back in the next chat, because the AI does not remember between chats."
 ],
 "checks": [
  "The result addresses your actual task and cites the evidence used.",
  "Examples, role-play experience and targets are kept separate from verified results.",
