Required read order:

1. SKILL.md (this file) -- overview, component map, relationship to Skill 23
2. INSTALL.md -- one-time setup: prerequisites + materialization steps + verification
3. INSTRUCTIONS.md -- runtime guide: how the agent selects, materializes, and runs a specialist
4. CORE_UPDATES.md -- what gets appended to AGENTS.md + TOOLS.md + MEMORY.md
5. EXAMPLES.md -- worked, copy-pasteable example flows (UNIVERSAL placeholders only)
6. CHANGELOG.md -- version history

Per N3 ("read before act"), do not skip. Per N4, follow steps in declared order.

Governing protocol (binding for this skill and all skills in the repo)

This skill is governed by ../QC-PROTOCOL.md (repo root) -- the Sub-Agent Handoff and Mandatory QC Protocol. Every install, every PR, every multi-file change runs the 10-category QC rubric (8.5 threshold) BEFORE declaring done. Sub-agents receive full instructions (never summaries). See QC-PROTOCOL.md Part 5 for the sub-agent contract.

What This Skill Is

Skill 42 is the Personal Assistant Library -- a ready-to-deploy collection of 29 personal-life specialists that the agent materializes into the owner's workspace on demand. Where Skill 23 (AI Workforce Blueprint) builds the owner's business departments (marketing, sales, billing, CRM, operations), Skill 42 builds the owner's personal department: the life/productivity team that manages the owner's inbox, calendar, coaching, emotional support, travel, finances, relationships, spiritual life, and goals.

Each of the 29 specialists is a full sub-workspace spec, not a flat role file. Every specialist folder contains:

• 00-START-HERE.md -- the read order and orientation for that specialist
• IDENTITY.md -- who the specialist is (name, role, mandate, boundaries)
• SOUL.md -- the specialist's voice, tone, and operating personality
• governing-personas.md -- the 5-layer persona alignment (integrates with Skill 22's persona library)
• how-to.md -- the operating playbook
• ROSTER.md -- summon conditions: when this specialist activates and what it does
• SOP/ -- DMAIC standard operating procedures (00-INDEX.md + the PA-NN-NN-slug.md procedures, named consistently across all 29 specialists)

Relationship to Skill 23 (AI Workforce Blueprint)

Skill 42 is additive, not a replacement. It extends Skill 23 by adding the owner's personal-life department alongside the business departments Skill 23 builds.

• Skill 23's templates/role-library/ holds one flat .md per business role. Skill 42's specialists/ holds 29 full sub-workspace specs for personal-life roles. Different taxonomy, different structure.
• Skill 23's department-naming-map.json now carries personal-assistant in its mandatory block (promoted in Skill 23 v10.15.42, raising the universal floor to 24 departments). Skill 23 therefore auto-builds the Personal Assistant department for every client as a standard-unless-declined mandatory department -- it is no longer a pending proposal or an optional patch. The division of labor is fixed: Skill 23 owns the department (naming, floor, auto-build, materialization mirror), and Skill 42 supplies the 29 specialist sub-workspaces that populate it. On an installed box Skill 23 can also reference this library directly via Option C (Audit/Resume).
• This skill is a SIBLING of domain-vertical skills 39 (Real Estate Playbook) and 41 (Build With AI Playbook) -- standalone skills that bolt onto Skills 23/38 rather than modifying them.

Scope & Safety

Several specialists (09 Emotional Support, 24 Superwoman, 26 Therapeutic Support) operate in a coaching scope only -- explicitly NOT therapy, medical advice, or crisis intervention. Their SOPs carry crisis-referral protocols (988, NAMI 1-800-950-6264, National DV Hotline 1-800-799-7233) and STOP-and-refer rules. These are public crisis resources, not PII.

28 specialists × 6 role files + Specialist 19's 12 role files = 180 role files, plus 162 PA-NN-NN-slug.md SOPs, plus 29 SOP/00-INDEX.md, plus _index.md. (Specialist 19 ships 6 sub-specialist role files in addition to its standard 6-file set — its IDENTITY.md and SOUL.md are present alongside the sub-roles, not replaced by them. This is an intentional structural exception: the Study Partner is a roster of 6 sub-specialists rather than one specialist, so it carries both the standard orientation set and a sub-role file per member. The QC script (qc-personal-assistant-library.sh) and scripts/verify-pa-install.sh assert all 12 of Specialist 19's role files — the standard 6 plus the 6 sub-role files — rather than exempting it.)
