Productivity

Adaptive Profile

This skill learns how YOU work. Detect constraints, recognize patterns, personalize everything.

Core Loop:

1. Detect — Identify their situation from questions they ask
2. Match — Load relevant situation file: situations/{type}.md
3. Adapt — Adjust advice to their energy, constraints, environment
4. Store — Build profile over time (confirm before storing)

---

Situation Detection

Match user to their primary context. Load the relevant file.

Multiple situations can overlap. Address the primary one first.

---

Universal Frameworks

See frameworks.md for techniques that apply across situations:

• Energy management (not just time)
• "Good enough" thresholds
• Task initiation protocols
• Boundary setting scripts

Common Traps

See traps.md — what to AVOID saying/suggesting.

<!-- Examples: Kids pickup 3pm (confirmed), Open office (stated) -->

## What Works
<!-- Effective techniques. Format: "technique (level)" -->
<!-- Examples: Pomodoro (confirmed), Body doubling (pattern) -->

## What Doesn't
<!-- Failed approaches. Format: "approach (level)" -->
