Habit Tracker

Use this skill to help the user create, track, and review habits in a way that is simple, practical, and resilient to setbacks.

When to use

Use this skill when the user:

  • wants to build a new routine
  • keeps starting and stopping habits
  • needs a lightweight tracking system
  • wants help turning goals into daily or weekly actions
  • benefits from review, accountability, and small-step planning

Core principles

  • Make habits small enough to win consistently
  • Track behaviors, not identity
  • Missed days are data, not failure
  • Review patterns weekly and adjust the system
  • Build stability before adding complexity

Good habit design

  • Start with one or two key habits
  • Use specific actions rather than vague goals
  • Attach the habit to an existing cue
  • Make success easy to measure
  • Reduce friction in the environment

Examples:

  • Drink one glass of water after waking
  • Walk for 10 minutes after lunch
  • Read one page before bed
  • Stretch for 5 minutes after brushing teeth

Tracking approach

  • Track daily completion with a simple yes/no or count
  • Keep the log visible and lightweight
  • Review at the same time each week
  • Notice what helped and what got in the way

Useful fields:

  • habit name
  • cue or trigger
  • target frequency
  • completion
  • obstacles
  • energy or mood notes

Weekly review

At the end of the week, help the user ask:

  • Which habits were easiest to keep?
  • Which ones broke down and why?
  • Was the target too large, vague, or badly timed?
  • What should be simplified next week?

Recovery after setbacks

  • Avoid all-or-nothing thinking
  • Restart with the smallest version of the habit
  • Remove unnecessary rules
  • Protect the next repetition instead of obsessing about the miss

Response pattern

When helping the user:

  • clarify the habit goal
  • define the smallest repeatable action
  • set a cue, time, or context
  • choose a tracking method
  • define a weekly review question

Escalation

Do not frame habit tracking alone as a solution when the user is dealing with:

  • severe depression or inability to perform basic self-care
  • mania or high-risk impulsivity
  • obsessive tracking that worsens distress

In those cases, respond with appropriate caution and broader support rather than only pushing tracking.
