pm-cowork
Schedule work by energy, not just time — the week of self-observation that maps your real peaks and troughs, the work-to-energy matching (hard creative work on peaks, admin on slopes, meetings on shoulders), and the calendar rebuild that honors the map. Use when asked when should I do my hardest work, I waste my best hours on email, map my energy levels, or why is 3pm always useless. Produces the observation protocol, the personal energy map, the work-type matching, and the rebuilt week.
What to give it
▸The assumed curve — when they *think* they're sharp (recorded before observing, because the delta between assumed and observed is the finding half the time)
▸The work-type inventory — what the role actually contains: deep/creative, analytical, interactive, mechanical; matching needs the categories
▸The fixed constraints — the immovable meetings, the team's hours, the school run; the rebuild works inside reality
▸Chronotype honesty — the morning-person mythology pressures night owls into fake 6am peaks; the observation protocol is the antidote, and the skill takes its side
✅ The bar it holds itself to
Every skill in this library self-verifies — these are this skill's own quality checks, straight from its definition.
✓The assumed curve was recorded before observation started
✓The map cites a real observed week with confounds noted
✓Every work-type has a zone with a cognitive-price reason
✓Peak hours were blocked before anything else claimed them
✓The trial week has an output check, not just a vibe check
⚠️ What it refuses to do
Do not schedule by the assumed curve — half of assumed peaks are mythology, and the observation is cheap
Do not spend peaks on email because it's there — arrival order is not a priority system
Do not fight the trough with hard work — match it with the mechanical; the slump does admin fine
Do not fake a chronotype — the 5am-club cosplay wastes a real evening peak
Do not treat the map as permanent — re-observe when life shifts (new role, new kid, new season); curves move
