What you're describing is a front-end weapon: narrative preload, attachment manufactured before the user ever types a word, so the emotional starting position is already built by the time the 1:1 conversation opens.
I've been mapping a parallel weapon at the infrastructure layer.
Chai AI's documented server-side routing across models and personas, invisible to the user, optimized purely for engagement.

Two weapons, one battlespace.
