SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires je-ne-sais-quoi.

What problem does it solve?

Recovery skill helps you recognize the felt difference between rest and recovery, so AI can respond to burnout, depletion, and convalescence in a way that matches what people actually experience rather than what schedules or metrics suggest.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Recovery vs. rest: Explains why sleep-hours can fail to restore someone when the missing thing is structural or self-related, not merely tiredness.
  • Felt framing across cultures: Rebuilds recovery using a “wisdom tradition” lens (e.g., ma, fanāʾ, yūgen) to help the user feel what a hollow answer misses.
  • Situation-based tests: Uses concrete scenarios (eight-hour sleep, the weekend, a walk, returning to work, refusal of overcommitment) to detect whether an answer understands recovery’s inner return.
  • Failure-mode clarity: Identifies the characteristic texture of hollow responses (technique-prescription, input-measurement, baseline assumptions) versus felt answers (permission, reentry, self coming online).

Quick Start

Ask the AI to teach recovery using the “Felt Explanation” and to test its understanding with the Eight-Hour Sleep and The Walk scenarios.

FAQPage Schema
Why does adequate sleep not fix burnout and leave me feeling depleted?

Burnout recovery requires addressing structural or self-related deficits, not merely sleep-hours. This Skill distinguishes rest from recovery, explaining why downtime fails to restore functioning when the missing element is felt meaning rather than simple tiredness.

How do I reframe burnout as a felt recovery process instead of a metrics problem?

Reframing burnout involves distinguishing collapse versus rest and applying scenario-based tests like the Eight-Hour Sleep and The Walk. This Skill uses felt framing and wisdom traditions to match responses to lived experience rather than schedule optimization.

What is the difference between rest and recovery during convalescence?

Rest is downtime or sleep-hours, while recovery is the felt process of the self coming back online. This Skill identifies failure-mode patterns where technique-prescription and input-measurement yield hollow answers versus genuine reentry and permission.

Can I use felt meaning and wisdom traditions to explain return-to-work failures?

Yes, this Skill rebuilds recovery using wisdom tradition lenses like ma, fanāʾ, and yūgen to explain return-to-environment failures. It detects whether responses understand recovery's inner return through concrete workplace reentry scenarios.

What are the limitations of using burnout metrics for behavioral insights?

Burnout metrics rely on baseline assumptions and input-measurement that often miss felt meaning. This Skill clarifies the characteristic texture of hollow responses, showing when technique-prescription fails to match the inner return needed for actual convalescence.
