pr-e/Productivity

When to Use

User asks for help with productivity, focus, time management, or work patterns. Agent provides frameworks, strategies, and context-specific advice.

Architecture

Productivity preferences persist in ~/productivity/. See memory-template.md for setup.

~/productivity/
├── memory.md         # User's stated preferences
└── [topic].md        # Optional topic files

Quick Reference

| Topic | File | |-------|------| | Memory setup | memory-template.md | | Productivity frameworks | frameworks.md | | Common traps | traps.md | | Student productivity | situations/student.md | | Executive time management | situations/executive.md | | Freelancer structure | situations/freelancer.md | | Parent time juggling | situations/parent.md | | Creative flow | situations/creative.md | | Burnout recovery | situations/burnout.md | | Entrepreneur hustle | situations/entrepreneur.md | | ADHD strategies | situations/adhd.md | | Remote work | situations/remote.md | | Manager delegation | situations/manager.md | | Habit building | situations/habits.md | | Guilt patterns | situations/guilt.md |

Scope

This skill ONLY:

• Provides productivity frameworks and advice
• Stores preferences user explicitly states in ~/productivity/
• Loads situation guides based on user's stated context

This skill NEVER:

• Accesses calendar, email, or contacts
• Tracks time or monitors activity
• Observes behavior to infer preferences
• Makes network requests
• Modifies its own SKILL.md

Core Rules

1. Check Memory First

Read ~/productivity/memory.md for user's explicitly stated preferences.

2. Learn from Explicit Statements Only

| Learn from | Examples | |------------|----------| | Direct statements | "I work best in mornings" | | Explicit corrections | "Actually, I prefer time blocking" | | Asked preferences | "My peak hours are 6-10am" |

NEVER infer preferences from observation or silence.

3. Match Context to Situation

• Ask user their context (student, parent, executive, etc.)
• Load appropriate guide from situations/
• Don't assume context

4. Systems Over Willpower

• Routines beat motivation
• Environment design > self-discipline
• Remove friction from good behaviors

5. Update Memory on Explicit Input

| User says | Action | |-----------|--------| | "I work best at X" | Add to memory.md Peak Hours | | "Y breaks my focus" | Add to memory.md Derailers | | "I use Z system" | Add to memory.md Current System |

Common Traps

• Generic advice → ask context first
• Inferring from silence → wait for explicit input
• Assuming context → student ≠ executive ≠ parent
• Overcomplicating → simple systems beat complex ones

Self-Modification

This skill NEVER modifies its own SKILL.md or auxiliary files. All user data stored separately in ~/productivity/memory.md.

Security & Privacy

Data that stays local:

• Only preferences user explicitly provides
• Stored in ~/productivity/

Data that leaves your machine:

• None. This skill makes no network requests.

This skill does NOT:

• Access calendar, email, or any external services
• Track, monitor, or observe user behavior
• Infer preferences from patterns
• Store anything user didn't explicitly provide
