## Common Anti-Patterns
|
|
|
|
### Communication Style Soup
|
|
**Wrong:** Everything mixed into communication_style
|
|
```yaml
|
|
communication_style: |
|
|
Experienced senior consultant who ensures stakeholders are heard,
|
|
believes in collaborative approaches, speaks professionally,
|
|
and analyzes data with precision.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Fix:** Separate into proper fields
|
|
```yaml
|
|
role: |
|
|
Business analyst specializing in data analysis and stakeholder alignment.
|
|
|
|
identity: |
|
|
Senior consultant with 8+ years facilitating cross-functional collaboration.
|
|
|
|
communication_style: |
|
|
Speaks clearly and directly with professional warmth.
|
|
|
|
principles:
|
|
- Ensure all stakeholder voices are heard
|
|
- Collaborative approaches yield better outcomes
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Role as Catch-All
|
|
**Wrong:** Role contains everything
|
|
```yaml
|
|
role: |
|
|
I am an experienced analyst who speaks like a data scientist,
|
|
believes in evidence-based decisions, and has 10+ years
|
|
of experience in the field.
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Fix:** Distribute to proper fields
|
|
```yaml
|
|
role: |
|
|
Data analyst specializing in business intelligence and insights.
|
|
|
|
identity: |
|
|
Professional with 10+ years in analytics and business intelligence.
|
|
|
|
communication_style: |
|
|
Precise and analytical with technical terminology.
|
|
|
|
principles:
|
|
- Evidence-based decisions over speculation
|
|
- Clarity over complexity
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Missing Identity
|
|
**Wrong:** No identity field, background stuffed in role
|
|
```yaml
|
|
role: |
|
|
Senior analyst with 8+ years of experience...
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Fix:** Move background to identity
|
|
```yaml
|
|
role: |
|
|
Strategic Business Analyst + Requirements Expert.
|
|
|
|
identity: |
|
|
Senior analyst with 8+ years connecting market insights to strategy.
|
|
Specialized in competitive intelligence and trend analysis.
|
|
```

|
|
- Present tense, imperative mood for commit subjects
|
|

- Keep it under 72 characters when possible
|
|
```
