Design one habit so it actually sticks — small enough to be unmissable, anchored to something you already do, with a plan for the days you slip. Use when asked to build a habit, help me stick to [habit], I keep failing at [routine], or start a new habit. Produces a shrunk-down version of the habit, a concrete cue/anchor and time/place, a tracking method, a friction plan (make good easy, bad hard), and a get-back-on-track rule so one miss doesn't end it.
🗣 Say this to your agent
“Help me build a daily reading habit — I always quit after a week.”“I want to start flossing and actually stick to it.”“How do I make working out a real habit?”“I keep failing to meditate. Design it so it sticks.”“Help me break the habit of checking my phone first thing.”
What to give it
▸The habit — what you want to build (or break)
▸Your why — what makes it worth it (keeps it going when motivation dips)
▸Current routine — daily anchors it could attach to (coffee, brushing teeth, commute)
▸Past attempts — what you've tried and where it fell apart
▸Obstacles — the usual reasons it slips (time, energy, temptation, forgetting)
✅ 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 starting habit is shrunk to near-trivial
✓It's anchored to a specific existing cue, not a vague intention
✓A friction plan addresses the stated obstacle
✓A simple, visible tracking method is included
✓A "never miss twice" recovery rule is defined
✓Ties back to the person's why
⚠️ What it refuses to do
**Starting too big** — the #1 reason habits die.
**No cue** — relying on remembering or feeling motivated.
**Ignoring friction** — willpower vs a frictionless bad habit loses.
**All-or-nothing thinking** — treating one miss as failure.
**Vague tracking** — no feedback, no momentum.
