4 source-grounded skills. Load one workflow at a time.

Trigger Pattern Map

Use this workflow when auditing repeated pressure moments to identify the trigger, first reaction, room-level operating cost, repair speed, and one interrupt to redesign.

Output specification

Return a trigger_pattern_map with pressure_moments, default_move, early_cues, room_effect, operating_cost, repair_speed, interrupt, replacement_move, and field_test.

Response Gap Plan

Use this workflow when designing a pause and replacement response for sharp messages, loaded meetings, feedback, or other moments where the first reaction may create damage.

Output specification

Return a response_gap_plan with facts, unverified_interpretations, first_impulse, pause_rule, response_job, clean_response, follow_up, and escalation_boundary.

Emotional Load Review

Use this workflow when deciding what emotional and uncertain context a leader should share now, hold until verified, or process outside the team operating channel.

Output specification

Return a controlled_context_brief with useful_emotional_signal, share_now, hold_until_verified, process_elsewhere, room_reset, audience_implications, owner, and next_check_in.

Operator Reset Protocol

Use this workflow when a pressure reaction has already leaked and the operator needs to name the miss, reduce residue, repair impact, and change the condition behind repetition.

Output specification

Return an operator_reset_note with what_leaked, who_or_what_absorbed_it, immediate_stabilization, repair_statement, cleanup_actions, condition_change, replacement_move, and follow_up_evidence.

Keep consequential decisions explicit.

These workflows structure analysis and artifacts; they do not authorize autonomous external, personnel, financial, legal, security, or other high-impact action.

Start with a weekly briefing, add daily notes, or hear only when a durable essay or research update is ready.
