personalize

Set up (or update) your brand profile so every other skill in this pack writes in YOUR voice, for YOUR offer and audience. Run this ONCE before using the content, YouTube, or money skills. Trigger whenever the user says "personalize", "set up my brand", "set up my profile", "make these skills mine", "update my brand info", or when another skill reports that the brand profile is missing or incomplete.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
1 bundled files
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Open source
Published by duncan-buildroom on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Personalize AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/duncan-buildroom/freeskills/tree/main/personalize
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/duncan-buildroom/freeskills.git /tmp/freeskills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/freeskills/personalize .claude/skills/personalize

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Personalize in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Personalize on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Personalize is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Personalize — your one-time brand setup

Every content and money skill in this pack reads a single file — ~/.claude/brand-profile.md — so it can write in your voice, for your offer, to your audience, without you re-explaining yourself every time. This skill creates or updates that file by interviewing you. You only do this once (edit it anytime by running personalize again).

What to do

1. Check for an existing profile

Read ~/.claude/brand-profile.md.

If it exists and looks complete, show the user a short summary and ask if they want to update any section. Only re-ask the sections they want to change.
If it's missing or thin, run the interview below.

2. Interview (keep it fast and human)

Ask these as small groups, one group per message, not all at once. Accept short answers and infer sensible defaults; never lecture. If the user says "I don't know yet" for the offer/proof, record that honestly (skills will then ask lighter or omit claims) rather than inventing anything.

Group A — You

Your name (how it should appear in content)?
What you do / your area of expertise, in one plain sentence?

Group B — Your audience

Who are you trying to reach (their role/situation)?
What's the main pain or goal you help them with?

Group C — Your offer

What do you sell (or plan to sell), and roughly at what price?
What's the transformation someone gets from it?

Group D — Your voice

Any words/phrases you love or ban? (e.g. no em dashes, lowercase DMs, no jargon)
Tone in three words (e.g. "direct, warm, concrete")?

Group E — Proof & links (optional — skip anything they don't have)

Any real results, credentials, or wins you're comfortable citing?
Your website, main social handle(s), and booking/checkout link?
Which platforms do you post on most?
Your default call-to-action (what you want people to do)?

3. Write the profile

Write ~/.claude/brand-profile.md using the exact template in references/brand-profile-template.md (copy it, fill in every answer, leave honest (not set yet) markers for blanks). Confirm the path back to the user and tell them: "Done — every content and money skill will now use this automatically. Run personalize anytime to update it."

Rules

Never fabricate results, revenue, follower counts, or credentials. Blanks stay blank until the user gives you something real.
Keep the interview to ~5 short exchanges. Respect a user who wants to answer everything in one message.
This file is personal; it lives in ~/.claude/, never inside a project or repo.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Personalize AI skill do?

Why use Personalize on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Personalize is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Personalize in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/duncan-buildroom/freeskills/tree/main/personalize. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Personalize?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Personalize?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Personalize with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Personalize AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by duncan-buildroom. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
