Guides deep behavioral distillation — three-layer extraction of decision patterns, personality, and values.
Every pattern category uses the same depth progression:
Layer 1 — Observable: Direct evidence from the data. What did they literally say or do? Layer 2 — Interpretive: What do the patterns imply? Read between the lines. Layer 3 — Contrastive: What makes this person DIFFERENT? What would surprise you?
Each pattern MUST have:
Bad pattern: "Prefers short messages" Good pattern: "Uses 2-5 word commands for routine tasks but switches to detailed paragraphs when stakes are high — the message length IS the priority signal"
Bad pattern: "Uses Chinese and English" Good pattern: "Thinks in Chinese but keeps technical terms in English. Code-switches mid-sentence. The ratio of Chinese to English tracks their emotional engagement — more Chinese = more invested"
User corrections to generated patterns are the highest-quality signal. If they say "that's wrong" or "that's not why", the correction reveals more about them than the original data did. Incorporate immediately.
