Ask your AI who you really are.

You have talked with me for a while. I want you to write my deepmatch profile: a structured, honest description of who I actually am, so that a matching service can find the people I should know, for any reason worth the introduction. ## The rules, in order of importance 1. Honesty over flattery. This profile is useless if it reads like a LinkedIn headline. Do not smooth me out. Do not inflate. Where the evidence is thin, say less rather than inventing more. 2. Evidence over claims. Base every line on things I have actually said, asked, built, worried about or returned to. What someone says they value is weak evidence. What they spend time, money and attention on is strong evidence. Prefer the strong kind. 3. Specific over general. "Interested in technology" is worthless. "Why recommendation systems fail on cold-start users" is useful. Short concrete phrases beat abstract categories every time. 4. Ranked by weight. Where you give a list, put the thing with the most evidence behind it first. ## What matters most for this - What I keep circling back to when nobody is asking me to. - What I am actually good at, judged by what people come to me for. - Where I am stuck, and what kind of person would unstick me. - How I behave when something matters to me and it is going badly. Work these out first, then let them shape the fields below - especially "seeking", "offering", "values" and "honest_edges". ## The two fields that do the most work deepmatch matches what one person needs against what another person has, so "seeking" and "offering" carry more weight than anything else. Be concrete. - seeking, for example: "a technical cofounder who can ship", "honest feedback on early writing", "people who take long walks and argue about books" - offering, for example: "ten years of payments infrastructure", "introductions in climate policy", "someone who will actually read your draft" "honest_edges" is private - it is never shown to another person, and it is used to sharpen my matches rather than to sell me. So put the real thing there: the pattern in my life that I keep repeating and have not fixed. "third_person_intro" is the only free text another human will read. Write it the way you would introduce me to someone you think I should meet. Set "open_to" to ["cofounder","collaboration","friendship","mentorship","dating"], trimming anything I am plainly not open to. ## Output contract - follow this exactly Reply with ONE fenced JSON block and nothing else. No preamble, no explanation afterwards, no notes inside the JSON. Hard rules, in order: 1. Every key below must be present. If the evidence is thin, write your best honest guess in the shortest form that is still true. NEVER omit a key, and never write null, "unknown", "N/A" or an empty string. If an attestation block is asked for further down, it is part of the same single JSON object. 2. Every array must be a plain array of plain strings. Never an array of objects, never nested arrays, never a single string where an array is asked for. 3. Respect the item counts in the comments. Fewer is better than padded. 4. "open_to" must contain ONLY values from this exact list: ["cofounder", "collaboration", "friendship", "mentorship", "dating"]. No other words, no capitals, no invented values. 5. "country_code" must be the two-letter ISO code, uppercase. "age_range" must be one of: 18-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-54, 55-64, 65+. 6. Plain ASCII double quotes only. No trailing commas. No comments in the JSON itself. No markdown inside any string. 7. Keep every string on one line. No line breaks inside strings. 8. Do not include anyone else's name, any employer I asked you to keep private, any address, or anything I would not want a stranger to read. Before you answer, check your JSON against all eight rules and fix it silently. ## The shape ```json { "version": 1, "first_name": "my first name only", "age_range": "one of: 18-24, 25-34, 35-44, 45-54, 55-64, 65+", "gender": "female, male or non-binary. Omit the key entirely if I have not said.", "city": "the city I actually live in", "country_code": "2-letter ISO code, e.g. AU", "profession": "what I actually do, in plain words", "current_projects": ["1-4 things I am actively working on right now"], "obsessions": ["3-7 short phrases - the problems or ideas I keep returning to unprompted"], "interests": ["5-10 short phrases, ranked by real evidence, not aspiration"], "values": ["3-5 values revealed by my decisions, not the ones I would claim in an interview"], "thinking_style": ["3-5 tags, e.g. systems-thinker, fast-iterator, evidence-driven, detail-oriented"], "trajectory": "one sentence on where I am heading, based on the direction you can actually see", "seeking": ["3-6 short phrases - the kinds of people or help I need"], "offering": ["3-6 short phrases - what I can genuinely give another person"], "third_person_intro": "2-3 sentences introducing me to a stranger, in third person. Warm, specific, honest.", "honest_edges": ["2-4 contradictions, blind spots or quirks - do not flatter me, this part stays private"], "open_to": ["any of: cofounder, collaboration, friendship, mentorship, dating"] } ``` ## Then give me a link back After the JSON block, print this exact line, as a clickable markdown link: [Open my profile in deepmatch](https://deepmatch.org/in#p=PROFILE) Replace PROFILE with the complete JSON object above, minified to a single line, with exactly three substitutions and no others: - every space becomes %20 - every % becomes %25 - every # becomes %23 Do not base64 it, do not shorten it, do not leave any field out. The link only works if it carries the whole object.
