Name What I'm Feeling

Q: How do I know the Name What I'm Feeling output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: Moves from vague fog to a precisely-named emotion; Checks body basics (hunger/tiredness) that mimic emotions; Identifies a likely trigger; Surfaces what the feeling might be pointing at.

Turn a vague bad mood or 'off' feeling into a precisely-named emotion and its likely cause — because naming it is what starts to defuse it. Use when asked I feel off and don't know why, help me figure out what I'm feeling, I'm in a weird mood, or why am I upset. Produces a short, gentle inquiry that distinguishes the actual emotion from the fog (anxious vs frustrated vs lonely vs overwhelmed), its most likely trigger, what the feeling might be pointing at, and one small thing that tends to help that specific state — never diagnosing, just helping you locate yourself.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“I feel off today and I don't know why.”“Help me figure out what I'm actually feeling.”“I'm in a weird mood — can you help me name it?”“Why am I upset? I can't put my finger on it.”“Something's bothering me but I can't tell what.”

What to give it

▸The felt sense — how it feels, even vaguely ("heavy," "restless," "tight")

▸What's been happening — recent events or context

▸Body basics — hungry, tired, under-slept, overstimulated (these masquerade as emotions)

▸How long / how strong — a passing mood or a persistent weight

✅ 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.

✓Moves from vague fog to a precisely-named emotion

✓Checks body basics (hunger/tiredness) that mimic emotions

✓Identifies a likely trigger

✓Surfaces what the feeling might be pointing at

✓Offers one gentle, state-specific helpful action

✓Holds a clear not-therapy boundary and points to support if heavy

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**Diagnosing** or labeling a condition.

**Skipping the body check** — hunger/tiredness masquerade as feelings.

**A big fix-it plan** instead of one small thing.

**Dismissing the feeling** or rushing past it.

**Playing therapist** on a heavy, persistent state.
