Individual Analysis
Input: $ARGUMENTS
Step 1: Identify the Individual
Who is the person at the center of this analysis?
INDIVIDUAL: [Name, role, or archetype]
CONTEXT: [Situation they're in]
GOAL: [What they're trying to achieve]
If $ARGUMENTS doesn't specify an individual, define the most likely person affected.
Step 2: Map Personal Resources
What does this individual have to work with?
SKILLS & KNOWLEDGE:
- [Relevant skill/expertise 1]
- [Relevant skill/expertise 2]
ASSETS & ACCESS:
- [Resource 1: time, money, tools, connections]
- [Resource 2]
AUTHORITY & INFLUENCE:
- [What they can decide unilaterally]
- [Where they need permission or buy-in]
Step 3: Identify Constraints
What limits this individual's action?
HARD CONSTRAINTS (cannot change):
- [Constraint 1]
- [Constraint 2]
SOFT CONSTRAINTS (difficult but possible to change):
- [Constraint 1]
- [Constraint 2]
SELF-IMPOSED CONSTRAINTS (beliefs, habits, assumptions):
- [Constraint 1]
- [Constraint 2]
Flag self-imposed constraints that may not be real limitations.
Step 4: Assess Solo Capability
What can this individual accomplish alone?
CAN DO ALONE:
- [Action 1] — because [reason]
- [Action 2] — because [reason]
CANNOT DO ALONE:
- [Action 1] — needs [what's missing]
- [Action 2] — needs [what's missing]
COULD DO ALONE BUT SHOULDN'T:
- [Action 1] — better to [alternative] because [reason]
Step 5: Identify Leverage Points
Where does this individual have the most impact per unit of effort?
HIGHEST LEVERAGE ACTIONS:
1. [Action] — impact: [what changes], effort: [low/medium/high]
2. [Action] — impact: [what changes], effort: [low/medium/high]
3. [Action] — impact: [what changes], effort: [low/medium/high]
HELP NEEDED:
- [Area where help is needed] — from [who/what]
- [Area where help is needed] — from [who/what]
Step 6: Optimize for Agency
Recommend a path that maximizes what the individual can control.
RECOMMENDED PATH:
1. [First action — something they can do today]
2. [Second action — builds on first]
3. [Third action — extends reach]
AUTONOMY SCORE: [How much of this plan depends on others: high/medium/low autonomy]
KEY DEPENDENCY: [The single biggest thing outside their control]
