Abstract: The resource theories of separable entanglement, non-positive partial transpose entanglement, magic, and imaginarity share an interesting property: An operation is free if and only if its renormalized Choi matrix is a free state. In this letter, we refer to resource theories exhibiting this property as Choi-defined resource theories. We demonstrate how and under what conditions one can construct a Choi-defined resource theory, and we prove that when such a construction is possible, the free operations are all and only the completely resource non-generating operations.
