Bug Report

Spec Reference

Specification §TUI Acceptance Tests, Deliverables table (approx. line 46976):

#	Deliverable	Spec Reference	Verifiable Check
3	Persona system: YAML-based actor + args + scope + presets	§Persona System	`agents persona add --config persona.yaml` creates persona; persona selectable in TUI

The spec explicitly calls out agents persona add --config persona.yaml as a verifiable check for the Persona System deliverable.

Expected Behavior (from spec)

A CLI command group agents persona should exist, supporting at minimum:

agents persona add --config|-c <FILE> [--update]

Allowing users to create/update personas from YAML configuration files via the CLI (mirroring the pattern of agents actor add, agents skill add, agents tool add, etc.).

Actual Behavior (from code analysis)

The CLI src/cleveragents/cli/main.py registers the following command groups but not persona:

project, actor, skill, tool, lsp, resource, plan, action, automation-profile, config, invariant, session, validation, tui

There is no persona Typer group registered in the CLI. The only persona-related CLI file is src/cleveragents/cli/persona.py, which is a backwards-compatibility shim re-exporting PersonaRegistry and PersonaConfig for use by repl.py — it is not a CLI command group.

Steps to Reproduce (Code Analysis)

Review src/cleveragents/cli/main.py — no app.add_typer(..., name="persona", ...) call exists
Search for agents persona add — only documentation/spec references found, no implementation
The agents persona add --config persona.yaml command from the spec deliverable table is completely unimplemented

Impact

Personas can only be created through the TUI first-run experience or by manually writing YAML files to ~/.config/cleveragents/personas/. The spec-required CLI interface for persona management is missing, making the Persona System deliverable partially unverifiable.
