Total time: about 2 hours.
This is the deep-dive companion to the Role-Based Access chapter of Build Your Ontology, End to End — the persona model lives there; this workshop is how you author, prove, provision, and operate it.
Who this is for
- Platform owners who decide what Ana knows org-wide- Workspace admins who provision different behavior for different teams- Enablement champions onboarding populations with different needs (executives vs analysts vs operations)- Anyone in a regulated environment who needs access behavior to be auditable, not anecdotal
What you’ll be able to do
| After module | You can… |
|---|---|
| 0 | Place any “I want Ana to…” request in the right context layer |
| 1 | Stand up the routing setup: seed ANA.md and verify Ana loads the per-user and per-persona conventions |
| 2 | Build your own personal context and verify it persists across threads |
| 3 | Propose org-level definitions, glossary entries, and documents through review |
| 4 | Author complete role persona files from the four-section anatomy |
| 5 | Prove persona behavior with the same-question test, and change it through governance |
| 6 | Provision personas through identity (SSO/SCIM groups), fail-closed |
| 7 | Operate the stack: versioning, persona reviews, and the failure modes to watch |

How to use this workshop
- Prerequisites: an org with an ontology/context library in place (the Build Your Ontology workshop if not) plus the context routing file (
ANA.md) seeded per Module 1; admin access for Modules 4–6; and a test user account for Module 5’s side-by-side.- Work in order — each layer builds on the previous, and Module 5’s proof needs Module 4’s personas.- Swap[bracketed]placeholders for your own teams, metrics, and domains. The restricted-persona examples use a care-management flavor; the pattern is industry-agnostic.- Context mechanics follow the current documentation at docs.textql.com (Context Library and Ontology sections) — verify click-paths there as the surface evolves.
For facilitators — running this as a guided session
For facilitators — running this as a guided session
T-minus-1-day pre-flight: run the workshop’s key prompts end-to-end in the session workspace — confirm logins, connectors, and the features this workshop touches are enabled for every attendee; run Module 1’s two verification probes (“what conventions are loaded?” and the write-test) to confirm
ANA.md is seeded and loading before anyone starts; have a fallback demo workspace ready in case a customer connector fails live. Pacing: when a long prompt is running (2–4 min), fire it first, then discuss the concept while Ana works — never watch a spinner in silence. If behind schedule, cut sections marked optional, never the checkpoints. Group sessions: attendees drive, you narrate; collect every miss or wrong answer in a shared doc — that list is the ontology backlog.🤖 Prefer to have Ana run this workshop? Open a thread with your data connected and paste the prompt below — Ana walks you through it on your own data, one step at a time. You run each prompt; she coaches.

ana-runner.md and paste its module list instead.)Run with Ana
