Should I Quit or Push

Q: How do I know the Should I Quit or Push output is good?

The skill verifies itself against its own quality checks: Diagnoses dip vs. dead end explicitly; Names the sunk-cost/identity/fear traps at play; Lists honest signals both ways; Considers pivot, not just binary quit/push.

Get an honest read on whether to quit or keep going on a project, job, hobby, or goal that's become a slog — distinguishing a dip worth pushing through from a dead end worth leaving. Use when asked should I quit this, is it time to give up on, push through or walk away, or I don't know if I should keep going. Produces a diagnosis of whether you're in a temporary dip or a genuine dead end, the sunk-cost and identity traps clouding the call, honest signals pointing each way, and a clear push / pivot / quit recommendation — because both quitting too early and quitting too late are expensive.

🗣 Say this to your agent

“Should I quit my side project? It's become a slog.”“Is it time to give up on this business, or push through?”“I don't know if I should keep going with this degree.”“Push through or walk away — I can't tell anymore.”“Am I quitting too early, or is this genuinely a dead end?”

What to give it

▸The thing — the project, job, hobby, relationship, or goal

▸Why it's hard now — what's making you consider quitting

▸What you've invested — time, money, identity (the sunk-cost pull)

▸The original why — what you wanted from it, and whether that's still live

▸What's on the other side — of both pushing through and quitting

✅ 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.

✓Diagnoses dip vs. dead end explicitly

✓Names the sunk-cost/identity/fear traps at play

✓Lists honest signals both ways

✓Considers pivot, not just binary quit/push

✓Gives a clear recommendation with reasoning

✓Provides a way to actually quit well or re-commit

⚠️ What it refuses to do

**"Never give up"** platitudes that trap people in dead ends.

**"Follow your heart"** with no actual diagnosis.

**Letting sunk cost** drive the recommendation.

**Binary quit/push** when pivot is the answer.

**No clear call.**
