switching-costs

What problem does it solve?

It helps you understand the lived, felt cost of transitioning between contexts—why interruptions and switching are not just time overhead, but a disruption of presence and deep alignment.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Felt vs. hollow explanations: Builds responses that distinguish clinical “context switching” from the actual experience of being pulled out of an ongoing world.
• Situational tests: Uses concrete scenarios (meetings, returning after interruptions, dual-project translation) to reveal whether someone truly grasps the cost.
• Failure-mode clarity: Defines how shallow answers sound (numbers, generic productivity advice) and what the felt answer must instead point to (the vestibule, the grief of the interrupted, self-switching).

Quick Start

Ask the AI to apply the switching-costs tests to a specific workflow you use daily (like coding, writing, or studying) and to explain the difference between a “hollow” and a “felt” response.
