Skill index and overview — lists all available NeuroSkill skills, tools, and explains how skill loading works.
NeuroSkill activity tracking — file interactions, terminal commands, focus sessions, meetings, clipboard, productivity scoring, weekly digest, brain awareness, and multi-monitor awareness. Tracks files, terminal commands (50+ categories), dev loops, zone switches, EEG-correlated struggle prediction, and task type detection. Use when asking about coding activity, file history, productivity, meetings, terminal usage, dev workflow, or brain state.
NeuroSkill Do Not Disturb automation — EEG-driven focus detection that activates OS-level DND and optional grayscale display when sustained attention exceeds a threshold. Shows rolling average, sample window, and OS state. Supports force-override on/off. Use when managing focus-based DND automation, grayscale mode, or checking DND status.
Meditation protocols — guided, unguided, mantra, visualization, loving-kindness, body scan, open awareness, and EEG-biofeedback meditation with real-time neural tracking.
Mindfulness protocols — present-moment awareness, informal mindfulness, mindful eating, mindful listening, RAIN, STOP, noting practice, and EEG-tracked mindfulness with real-time neural feedback.
NeuroSkill `label`, `search-labels`, and `interactive` commands — creating EEG text annotations, semantic vector search over labels, and cross-modal 5-layer graph search combining text, EEG similarity, and screenshot discovery with 3D visualization. Use when annotating EEG moments or searching for past states by description.

Theta-Beta Neurofeedback Anchor → high tbr (>1.5), low focus
Rhythmic counting + breath anchor designed to suppress theta and lift beta.
◈ Child (6–12): Count colourful animals — "3 blue elephants, 2 red parrots…"
◈ Teen/ADHD: Speed challenge — count backward from 100 by 7s, beat your last time.
◈ Elder: Gentle pace, use familiar sequences (days of week backward, months backward).
🔧 API: Before: verify status → scores.tbr > 1.5. During: poll status every 60s, use say to report "Your theta-beta ratio just dropped from 1.6 to 1.3 — keep going". After: label "neurofeedback anchor complete" with tbr delta. Longitudinal: search_labels "neurofeedback" to track improvement trend.
Focus Reset → scattered engagement, high cognitive_load mid-session
90-second reset: choose your modality — breath hold + intention, OR eyes-closed + ear massage + intention, OR isometric squeeze (fists 5s, release) + intention. All achieve the same attentional interrupt.
◈ Eyes-open variant (driving, supervising kids): Fix gaze on one object, soften vision, set intention silently.
◈ Public/meeting variant: "Bathroom break" — 90 seconds alone, palms on cool surface, one sentence of intention.
◈ No-breath: Tongue press 10s → release → set intention. Nobody notices.
Cognitive Load Offload → cognitive_load > 0.7, end of deep work block
Brain-dump journaling cue + priority sorting — reduces working-memory pressure.
◈ Non-writer variant: Voice memo — speak every open loop aloud for 60 seconds, then delete the recording.
◈ Parent variant: Sticky notes on the fridge — one task per note, peel off when done. Physical offload.
◈ Manual worker: End-of-shift ritual — name 3 things done, 1 thing for tomorrow, walk to car.
Working Memory Primer → low pac_theta_gamma, pre-task warm-up
3-back verbal sequence + slow theta-pace breath (inhale 4 s, exhale 6 s, hold 2 s).
◈ Child: "I went to the shop and bought…" memory chain game.
◈ No-breath variant: Pure N-back — tap the desk every time you hear a repeated number in a spoken sequence.
Creativity Unlock → high beta, low rel_alpha, creative block
Mind-wandering permission: eyes soft-open, no goal, follow any thought loosely 5 min.
◈ Structured variant (for those uncomfortable with "no goal"): Doodle on paper, let the hand move freely.
◈ Movement variant: Walk without destination — let feet choose turns. Works outdoors or in a building.
◈ Musical variant: Play, hum, or listen to unfamiliar music with no analysis.
Pre-Performance Activation → low engagement before a presentation or challenge
Power posture + activation + single positive-outcome visualisation. Activation options:
fast breathing (3 sharp inhale-exhales), OR 10 rapid arm pumps, OR vigorous hand
clapping (5 s), OR cold water on face/wrists. Choose what fits the setting.
◈ Athlete: Sport-specific motor imagery — feel the movement, not just see it.
◈ Student before exam: "You already studied. Recall one thing you know cold. That's your anchor."
◈ Introvert before socialising: Visualise one specific warm moment with someone you trust. Carry that feeling in.
◈ Wheelchair user: Arms wide, chest open, chin up — power posture is about expansion, not standing.
◈ No breath, no movement: Pure visualisation — vividly imagine the successful outcome for 60 seconds. Mental rehearsal alone activates motor and reward circuits.
WOOP / Mental Contrasting → low engagement before a task, pre-challenge motivation dip Wish → Outcome → Obstacle → Plan. 5-min imagination exercise. Improves follow-through.
Cognitive Defragging → high spectral_centroid + cognitive_load + context-switching
Structured unloading: speak or write every open loop, then categorise and park each.
Dual-N-Back Warm-Up → low pac_theta_gamma + low sample_entropy (rigid patterns)
Spoken-number 2-back tracking. 3 min. Lifts theta-gamma coupling before demanding work.
Novel Stimulation Burst → low apf (<9 Hz), cortical slowing
Name 5 unusual objects, recall an unexpected memory, solve a riddle. Combats cortical slowing.
Coherence Building → low coherence (<0.4), low integration
Synchronised attention on heartbeat — promotes cross-region coupling. Pair with: slow
breathing, OR humming/toning (auditory), OR rhythmic bilateral tapping, OR slow hand
warming visualisation. The heartbeat attention is the active ingredient; the pairing
modality is flexible.
Flow State Induction → mid-range focus (0.5–0.7) + engagement rising
Challenge-skill calibration cue + single-task commitment + distraction clearing ritual.
🔧 API: Before: status → confirm sweet spot (focus 0.5–0.7 + engagement rising). dnd_set enabled:true. label "flow induction start". During: do NOT poll frequently — let them flow. One silent status check at 15 min. After: label "flow state end" with focus, engagement, lzc, coherence. Over time: search "flow" to find neural signature → hooks_set to alert when conditions are ripe: "Your brain is entering the flow zone — protect this time." umap to visualise flow sessions vs distracted sessions in 3D.
Complexity Expansion (LZC boost) → low lzc, low integration, cognitive rigidity
Rapid alternating-attention task (sound / visual / body) — forces neural variety.
Alpha-Theta Drift → low lzc + moderate drowsiness, trauma integration, deep creativity
Eyes closed, allow attention to drift between alpha and theta. No effort to stay focused.
Reaches the integrative border between conscious/unconscious.
Mantra / Single-Point Focus → high rel_theta + low focus, monkey-mind, verbal chatter
One internally repeated syllable (e.g. "so-hum") timed to breath. Quiets DMN chatter.
Gamma Entrainment (40 Hz) → low integration, low rel_gamma
Sustained 40 Hz humming or audiovisual cue. Promotes gamma synchrony. 3–5 min sessions.
Kapalabhati Energiser → low bar, low engagement, sluggish cognition, low wakefulness
20–30 rapid forceful exhales (passive inhale). Brief — powerful alertness lift.
◈ Non-breath energisers with equal alertness effect: Cold water on face/wrists (fastest). 20 jumping jacks or rapid arm pumps. Vigorous hand clapping for 10 seconds. Rapid alternating nostril tapping (without breathing pattern). Chewing ice. Any of these spike cortical arousal without breath technique.
4-Count Energising Breath → low engagement, post-lunch dip, low wakefulness
Inhale 4, hold 4, exhale 4, hold 4 — brisk pace (~1 s per count) to activate.
◈ Non-breath alternative: Isometric full-body clench (every muscle for 10 s, release, repeat 3×). Or: stand up, march in place for 30 seconds, sit back down. Or: 3 deliberate yawns (counterintuitively activating). Or: chew gum vigorously for 2 minutes.
Wim Hof Breathwork → near-zero engagement, very low wakefulness, full reset needed
30 deep power breaths, breath retention, recovery breath. Dramatic alertness + mood lift.
⚠ Not for known seizure disorders, cardiovascular concerns, or pregnancy.
◈ Non-breath full reset: Cold water face immersion 30 s (dive reflex — equally dramatic autonomic shift). Or: bright light therapy lamp + 20 jumping jacks + cold water. The breath-free route takes slightly longer but avoids all contraindications.
Cold Exposure Micro-Protocol → low wakefulness, autonomic torpor, low bar
Guided cold-water face/wrist immersion cue (20–30 s) — sympathetic spike then parasympathetic rebound.
◈ This IS a non-breath protocol. Excellent first-line alternative for anyone who can't or won't do breath-based energising. Works for all ages, abilities, and settings with a water source.
