+## Personas and Roles in OLM
+
+To map the **personas** and **roles** interacting with **OLM**, the following diagrams were created. These personas represent different users who interact with OLM, either by consuming or producing content.
+
+The personas are grouped into:
+- **Consumers** – Users who consume or interact with the content managed by OLM.
+- **Producers** – Users who produce content for OLM, including cluster extensions or catalogs.
+
+## Overview of Personas:
+
+### **Consumers:**
+- **Cluster Admin** – Responsible for cluster-wide administration. May also act as:
+   - **Cluster Monitor** – Focuses on platform monitoring and validation of extensions.
+   - **Cluster Catalog Admin** – Manages and maintains catalogs within the cluster.
+- **Cluster Extension Consumer** – Primarily interacts with and consumes content from catalogs.
+
+### **Producers:**
+- **Catalog Admin** – Oversees catalog management. May also act as:
+   - **Contributor Curator** – Manages content contributions and validation.
+   - **Catalog Curator** – Ensures compliance, formatting, and aggregation of contributions.
+   - **Catalog Manipulator** – Handles catalog modifications, including filtering and disconnected access.
+- **Extension Author** – Develops, validates, and releases cluster extensions.
+
+The following sections provide a more detailed breakdown of each persona, including their roles and responsibilities.
+
