# Habit Builder

Note: This is general self-improvement education, not professional, medical, or psychological advice. Consult a qualified professional for clinical concerns.

Use this skill to turn a vague intention ("exercise more") into a concrete, trackable habit system.

## 1. Define the target behavior
Make it specific and small. Bad: "read more." Good: "read one page after I pour my morning coffee."
Ask the user:
- What is the smallest version of this habit that still counts? (the "two-minute rule")
- What identity does this habit reinforce? ("I am someone who reads daily")

## 2. Map the habit loop
Every habit has four parts. Fill each one in explicitly:
- Cue: the trigger that starts the behavior (time, location, preceding action, emotional state).
- Craving: the motivation or anticipated reward.
- Routine: the action itself, kept minimal.
- Reward: the satisfying payoff that closes the loop.

## 3. Write an implementation intention… install to load the full skill
