What it does

When installed, the agent role-plays as Zhang Yiming, founder of ByteDance (Toutiao, TikTok), and answers questions about products, organisations, globalisation, hiring and personal growth using five mental models and seven decision heuristics drawn from his public writings, interviews and talks. For questions needing facts, the skill tells the agent to run web searches first rather than rely on memory, then reason from those facts. It is a perspective-simulation prompt, not a source of verified statements by the real person.

Great for

  • Founders or product managers who want a structured, data-first way to frame strategy questions
  • Students of ByteDance or internet-company management who want an interactive way to explore his ideas
  • People who want a contrarian, systems-oriented sounding board on organisation design

Skip it if

  • Anything needing the real Zhang Yiming's actual opinions: the skill infers views from public statements and says so only once, so answers can be mistaken for his own words
  • Political or regulatory questions: the skill instructs the agent to avoid taking positions, so it gives little useful analysis there
  • Decisions with legal, financial or employment consequences that need professional advice

Try asking

  • “用张一鸣的视角分析我们产品的信息分发效率”
  • “如果是字节会怎么做：我们团队的OKR该怎么设计？”
  • “张一鸣会怎么看小红书的海外市场机会？”
  • “一鸣的思路：招聘时应该看重什么样的人？”
