focus-coach

What This Skill Does

The focus-coach is a sophisticated AI agent skill designed to overcome procrastination and cognitive paralysis using the scientifically backed BJ Fogg Behavior Model (B=MAP). Instead of offering generic productivity advice, this skill performs a diagnostic analysis of why you are struggling—identifying whether your blocker stems from a lack of Motivation, a lack of Ability, or a missing/weak Prompt. By pinpointing the specific failure point, it provides a highly granular, "tiny" action designed to be completed in under 120 seconds. This micro-commitment helps users bypass the psychological resistance associated with starting large tasks, effectively restoring attention and momentum.

Installation

To integrate focus-coach into your AI agent environment, ensure you have the required CLI tools installed and authenticated:

npm install -g [email protected]
awal auth login
clawhub install openclaw/skills/skills/daisuke134/focus-coach

Use Cases

This skill is perfect for scenarios where cognitive load feels overwhelming or procrastination has set in. It is ideal for:

• Knowledge workers struggling to start a complex report or research project.
• Students feeling overwhelmed by large study blocks.
• Freelancers managing multiple projects who find themselves bouncing between tasks without finishing them.
• Anyone practicing 'Tiny Habits' who needs an external accountability partner to trigger a workflow.

Example Prompts

1. "I need to start coding this backend migration but I just can't seem to open the terminal. I'm feeling pretty low energy."
2. "I have to clean my room, but I’ve been staring at the pile of clothes for an hour. I'm so distracted."
3. "Help, I have 30 minutes to finish this email thread but I'm completely procrastinating because the topic is stressful."

Tips & Limitations

The focus-coach works best when the user is honest about their energy levels, as this significantly impacts the AI’s recommendation. If your energy is 'low,' the suggested tiny action will be significantly simpler than if your energy is 'high.' Be aware that this skill is strictly for focus-related tasks; for deep-seated emotional or existential issues, consider pairing this with the 'buddhist-counsel' skill. Note that this skill requires access to the Anicca proxy API to function and incurs a small USDC fee per request, ensuring high-quality, specialized inference.
