What problem does it solve? Doctoral learners often spend their sharpest hours on email, meetings, or administrative work and then try to write during their lowest-energy periods, producing slower progress and weaker output. This Skill identifies your chronotype, maps your peak, trough, and recovery windows, and realigns your week so deep work happens when your cognition is strongest. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Chronotype Identification: Classifies you as a morning lark, third bird, or night owl and maps your peak, trough, and recovery windows. - Task-Energy Alignment: Assigns deep work (drafting, analysis, synthesis) to peak hours and shallow work (formatting, citations, email) to trough hours. - Weekly Schedule Design: Produces a realigned weekly calendar with protected deep-work blocks and explicit recovery commitments. - Use Case: A part-time doctoral student who writes at 9 PM after work discovers they are a morning lark, then shifts writing to 6–7:30 AM before work and reserves evenings for reading and reference formatting. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to run the energy-management skill to audit your daily energy patterns and build a weekly schedule that protects your peak hours for dissertation writing.
