The Composer
An agentic newsroom. A ten-persona editorial board gates an explicit state machine that carries a piece from notes through draft, review, and publish.

Publishing raw operator thinking has a quality ceiling.
Writing that goes out unreviewed is faster and worse. The usual fix — a human editor — does not scale to the cadence a working operator can actually sustain.
Review by persona preserves the voice while raising the floor, because each reviewer is narrow enough to have an opinion worth disagreeing with.
Notes → structured → interview → draft → review → approved.
The pipeline is an explicit state machine, not a prompt chain. Every transition gates on a persona's pass or fail, and the state is inspectable at each step.
A rejected draft returns to interview rather than all the way to notes, which preserves the thinking already done. Repeated failure at the same gate escalates to the operator instead of looping.
Ten personas, each reading through one narrow lens.
Strategist, architect, editor, journalist, peer, revenue partner, PM reader, founder reader, chief of staff, chief data officer. Each is an agent anchored to a real editorial role with a single evaluative concern — rigor of argument, narrative arc, voice authenticity, conversion mechanism.
Narrowness is the mechanism. A reviewer asked to judge everything judges nothing.
