▸ an instrument, not a friend
It asks. You answer. That is the whole trick.
The coach has no name, no face and no feelings. Unsolicited, it only ever asks a question — it may never write your prompt or hand you an idea. Buy a straight answer and it will diagnose and explain, but the authoring stays yours.
Recent coach moments
Nothing here is scoreable evidence — every coach line carries contributesEvidence: false. A coach chat can never count as a real user, real feedback, or a publish. Your bands are built only from what you do.
how a session ends
One fact. One question. No praise.
Praise that costs nothing is worth nothing. Celebration is saved for a passed Testing and for a change a real person asked for.

Questions are always free — want one?
Nobody pays to escape being genuinely stuck. 3 real attempts across 4+ minutes with no movement, and the coach offers an answer on its own — free. 3 prompts fired in 20 seconds is guessing, not stuck.
coach volume · per skill
The coach fades as you stop needing it
Silence is the goal. At a strong band the coach says nothing about that skill unless you ask. Where it cannot see you yet, it guides the most.
when it speaks
Only at a boundary
- after a result renders, or you accept or reject one
- after a test run finishes
- before a publish goes out
- at session close — the one time it summarises
- whenever you ask — always allowed
- never mid-prompt, never twice within 90 seconds
One skill at a time — always the weakest one currently triggering. A coach that comments on everything is noise.
