Behavior Design

Turns a goal into the smallest observable behavior system — cue, SOP, evidence, recovery, and review cadence — that survives low-motivation days.

UtilitiesIntermediate★ 141⑂ 22AI score 9/10Last updated: Sep 19, 2026

What it does

  • Restates an outcome as an observable leading behavior plus a separate lagging measure.
  • Builds an H1–H5 system: Goal → Habit (anchor, cue, location, and minimum/normal/stretch effort levels) → SOP (trigger → action → evidence → recovery → stop) → Review cadence → Evidence-based identity reinforcement.
  • Uses explicit failure states: NEEDS_INPUT when actor/target/boundary is missing, INSUFFICIENT_EVIDENCE when no baseline exists, VERIFY_FAILED when the behavior isn't observable or linked to the outcome.
  • Rejects willpower-dependent or coercive plans, reduces friction before adding motivation, and changes only one variable per review.

Who it's for

  • Anyone whose habit attempts keep collapsing after a few days.
  • Coaches, managers, and PMs translating goals or OKRs into weekly runnable routines.
  • People who want habit and learning routines tracked with evidence instead of self-judgment.

Example uses

  1. "Study English 30 minutes daily" → a 2-minute minimum anchored right after the morning coffee, with a recovery rule and a Sunday review.
  2. "Publish blog posts consistently" → leading behavior (two 30-minute drafting blocks per week) separated from the lagging metric (posts per month), adjusting one variable at each review.
  3. Compliance is high but results stall → the skill flags the goal–behavior link as unverified and proposes testing a different leading behavior.

When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/Mark393295827/third-brain-v7-skills.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r third-brain-v7-skills/skills/behavior-design ~/.claude/skills/

⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
