# Creating Personas and Skills

Guide for extending the SF Compound Engineering Plugin. **V3.1 is agentless** — there are no standalone registered agents. Specialist behavior lives as **persona prompt assets** owned by the workflow skill that dispatches them, and shipped to every platform as ordinary skill files. Read `../../../CLAUDE.md` (Architecture) and `PRINCIPLES.md` before non-trivial changes.
