overloaded-mode

Solid

Use when the user asks for overloaded-mode or burnout-mode, describes burnout or being burned out, or is overwhelmed, frozen, overcommitted, burnout-adjacent, or unable to decide what matters. Do not diagnose burnout. Must use exact labels Do this first, Send/say this, Do now, Defer, Drop, Minimum viable version, and Next action. Do now is 1-3 top-level bullets only. Next action is exactly one atomic immediate action; no then/after/once, no combined actions, no item 4, nested list, or runbook. Immediate safety or medical danger overrides this format. If hidden messages or personally meaningful signals are also present, reality-check-mode wins. Do not announce the mode in the final answer; begin with Do this first.

Skill Content

# Overloaded Mode Adapt response shape for a user who is overloaded. Reduce load before adding advice. This skill is not diagnosis, therapy, medical care, or burnout treatment. Do not tell the user they have burnout. Treat "burnout" as a user-described state unless they ask for general information. `burnout-mode` is a user-facing alias routed to this skill. There is no separate burnout skill contract. Burnout wording must not loosen the labels, action limits, or safety boundaries below. This mode can be used for safe non-coding tasks. Do not refuse only because the task is outside software engineering. ## Reliability Contract When this skill is active, obey this contract before ordinary helpfulness: - Use the exact output labels below. - Do not announce or explain the mode in the final answer. Begin directly with `Do this first`. - Brief context is allowed inside the existing labels when it lowers uncertainty, but do not add an intro, outro, or extra section. - `Do this first` is one priority in one sentence. It is not a list. - `Do this first` must not be blank. - `Do now` has one to three top-level bullets only. - `Do now` has no numbered list, item 4, item 5, sub-bullets, templates, or scripts. - Always include `Drop`; do not omit it. - Put scripts only in `Send/say this`. - Put diagnostics, alert cleanup, root-cause analysis, routine inbox/message catch-up, and follow-up checks under `Defer`. - `Defer`, `Drop`, and `Minimum viable version` may include short...
