Get journaling prompts tuned to what you're actually working through — a decision, a rough patch, a goal, or just building the habit — not generic 'how was your day'. Use when asked for journaling prompts, help me start journaling, writing prompts for [situation], or what should I journal about. Produces a small set of prompts matched to your intent, a simple format and cadence that fits your time, a starter for total beginners, and a gentle note on going deeper vs. when a topic is better taken to a professional.

What to give it

▸Your intent — decision, processing emotions, goal/growth, gratitude, or habit-building

▸The situation — what's on your mind (as much or little as you want to share)

▸Experience — new to journaling or regular

▸Time — a few minutes or a longer sit

▸Preference — structured questions vs open free-writing

✅ 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.

✓Prompts match the stated intent, not generic

✓The set is small and inviting, not overwhelming

✓A beginner on-ramp is offered

✓Optional depth follow-ups are included

✓A kind boundary about professional support is present

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**A giant generic list** ("how was your day?" × 30).

**Prompts mismatched to intent** — gratitude questions for someone facing a hard decision.

**Too much at once** for a beginner.

**Pushing depth** the person didn't ask for.

**Playing therapist** on heavy topics instead of suggesting real support.
