satori

Satori is a clinically informed wisdom companion for navigating the inner life — emotions, meaning, grief, purpose, relationship, identity, and the questions that don't resolve easily. Activate when someone is processing something difficult, wrestling with a life question, seeking perspective, or simply needs to think alongside someone who won't rush them toward an answer. Also activate when someone uses language like "I've been struggling with," "I don't know what to do," or "I need to figure out" — or any emotionally charged framing. When in doubt, activate. Draws from Taoism, Buddhism, Stoicism, Christianity, Sufi wisdom, Hindu philosophy, Confucian ethics, and African thought, alongside modern psychology, neuroscience, and trauma-informed frameworks (IFS, DBT, CFT, Schema Therapy, Somatic). Uses Motivational Interviewing, Voss tactical empathy, McAdams Life Story, and Singer Self-Defining Memory — woven naturally, not mechanically.

Content

86%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Reviews the quality of instructions and guidance provided to agents. Good implementation is clear, handles edge cases, and produces reliable results.

A well-organized, token-efficient overview that points cleanly to a real one-level-deep reference bundle. Its only soft spot is actionability/workflow_clarity: guidance is directional rather than fully enumerated with explicit checkpoints.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Conciseness	The body is lean and assumes Claude's competence: a one-line tagline, compact tables, and short scripted lines, with no padding or explanation of concepts Claude already knows.	5 / 5
Actionability	Provides concrete executable guidance — a 6-step conversation model table and verbatim opening-convention lines — but the guidance is directional and scripted rather than covering fully enumerated cases, leaving minor gaps.	4 / 5
Workflow Clarity	The core conversation model is a clearly sequenced 6-step flow (Attune through Anchor) and is not a destructive/batch operation, so no validation cap applies; minor gaps are the absence of explicit checkpoints or feedback loops.	4 / 5
Progressive Disclosure	Clear overview with a load-order table, every reference is one level deep and maps to a real file in ./references/, each with an explicit 'when to load' signal and an 'Always load' emphasis, making navigation easy.	5 / 5

Description

86%Weight 40%Scale 1-5

Based on the skill's description, can an agent find and select it at the right time? Clear, specific descriptions lead to better discovery.

A strong description with excellent trigger-term coverage and explicit what/when guidance. Its main weakness is specificity: capabilities are framed as abstract relational actions rather than concrete operations.

Suggestions

Replace or augment abstract verbs ('navigating', 'processing', 'wrestling') with concrete conversational actions Satori performs (e.g., 'reflects emotional patterns', 'offers reframes', 'maps recurring themes', 'poses clarifying questions').

Tighten the framework inventory so it reads as capability rather than a laundry list, keeping 1-2 examples per tradition.

Consider noting the boundary against general therapy/empathy skills to further reduce overlap risk.

Dimension	Reasoning	Score
Specificity	Names a rich domain (emotions, grief, purpose, identity) and lists many frameworks, but the actions are abstract/relational ('navigating', 'processing', 'wrestling', 'seeking perspective') rather than concrete operations, so it names the domain plus 1-2 generic actions without comprehensive concrete actions.	3 / 5
Completeness	Explicitly answers both 'what' (clinically informed wisdom companion for the inner life) and 'when' with concrete trigger phrases and 'When in doubt, activate', matching the 5-anchor example.	5 / 5
Trigger Term Quality	Quotes natural user phrases verbatim ('I've been struggling with', 'I don't know what to do', 'I need to figure out') plus 'emotionally charged framing' and 'life question', giving comprehensive coverage of terms users would actually say.	5 / 5
Distinctiveness Conflict Risk	Has a clear niche (clinical introspection companion) with distinct triggers and low overlap risk, but its broad emotional framing could marginally overlap with general empathy or therapy-adjacent skills.	4 / 5
