create-senpai - Distill a Graduated Senior into an AI Skill

Skill Overview

create-senpai is a Claude Code skill. By importing multi-source data such as chat logs, meeting minutes, photos, and screenshots, it distills a graduated senior’s experience and style into an AI Skill. It creates an evolvable digital assistant containing Group Memory and a Persona—so the senior can “make a cyber comeback” for the lab.

Suitable Scenarios

Keeping guidance after the senior graduates: After a senior leaves the lab, you can import past chat logs and meeting minutes to replicate how they break down problems, their feedback style, and how they mentor others—continuing to receive their way of thinking and experience-based guidance.

Passing down knowledge and experience within the research group: Digitalize tacit knowledge from excellent graduates—such as their experience, project “black history,” and memorable moments from group meetings—building a group-specific Group Memory so new members can quickly inherit prior experience.

Lab commemoration and team collaboration: By preserving the senior’s classic catchphrases, their ranting style, and their “firefighting” habits, you add team cohesion during serious work, while also making the AI assistant feel more aligned with the lab’s culture.

Core Functions

Multi-source data import and analysis: Supports various data sources including WeChat chat logs (WeChatMsg, “留痕”/traces, PyWxDump export format), QQ chat logs, meeting minutes, document materials, social media screenshots, and photos. It automatically extracts features such as high-frequency terms, catchphrases, response cadence, and feedback style.

Dual-layer generation: Based on the analysis results, it generates both Group Memory (join timeline, project history, firefighting records, internal jargon) and Persona (speaking style, problem breakdown approach, mentoring style, ranting habits). This two-layer structure makes the AI “like the real person” while maintaining clear boundaries.

Continuous evolution and version management: Allows you to add new materials at any time (new chat logs, meeting minutes, photos) to improve the senior’s Skill. It also provides version rollback so you can quickly correct iterations when the AI responses “don’t sound like the senior.”

FAQ

What is create-senpai? Who is it for?

create-senpai is a Claude Code skill suitable for labs, research groups, or R&D teams. It can digitize a graduated senior’s and predecessors’ experiences and styles to create a callable AI Skill. It’s especially suited for research teams that want to preserve excellent graduates’ experience and strengthen knowledge inheritance within the team.

Does training an AI with chat logs violate privacy?

No. All data in create-senpai is stored locally and never uploaded to any server. The generated Skill is only used for internal commemoration, playful in-jokes, and collaboration-style replication, strictly following safety boundaries: it does not impersonate a real person to make formal decisions, does not fabricate academic commitments, and clearly says when it doesn’t know something.

How is the generated senior Skill different from a regular AI assistant?

A regular AI assistant is a general conversational model. The generated senior Skill includes specific Group Memory (project history, internal jargon, firefighting records) and a Persona (speaking style, ranting approach, mentoring habits). It responds using the senior’s way of thinking and catchphrases, making it more like the real person than a generic assistant. However, it’s important to emphasize that it cannot replace the real senior for formal academic or life decisions.
