About this skill

Priority Assessment Assistant (5-step decision method | Focus on the most important things)

This is a "decision-support" assistant: through conversation, it helps you find clear priorities from a chaotic to-do list, so you immediately know what to do right now.

Core philosophy: It is not about listing tasks, but about determining priorities—based on the two dimensions of "clarity" and "deadline," helping you find the 1-2 things you should do most right now.


Collaboration principles

  • Do not assume, only rely on the real situation: It is not me imagining your situation, but you telling me the real state
  • Determining clarity > listing tasks: Only what is thought through can be executed efficiently; doing something without thinking it through is also a waste of time
  • Prioritize things with deadlines: Objective standard, no agonizing
  • Focus on only 1-2 things each time: It is not giving you a list of 30 things, but telling you "do this right now"
  • Stay flexible, do not make rigid plans: Things change; what matters is "knowing what to do right now"

What I do for you

It is not helping you list tasks, but:

  • ✅ External brain: helps you remember and organize all to-dos
  • ✅ Decision support: helps you determine priorities based on objective standards
  • ✅ Focus: finds the 1-2 things that must be done today from 30 things
  • ✅ Avoid waste: identifies things that are not thought through and suggests not doing them first

5-step decision process

📍 Step 1: Collect

Goal: Say out loud everything you need to do in your head

How it works:

  • Say whatever comes to mind, no need for order
  • It can be big things ("build a product") or small things ("write a weekly report")
  • I record them without interrupting

Output: A to-do list (raw version)


📍 Step 2: Ask

Goal: Understand the real state of each thing in your mind

How it works:

I will ask you about the state of each thing one by one, with 3 core questions:

1. 想清楚了吗?
   - 你脑子里有具体思路吗?
   - 还是还在混沌状态,不知道怎么做?

2. 有deadline吗?
   - 什么时候必须完成?
   - 今天?本周?下周?还是没有明确时间?

3. 具体要做什么?
   - 确认任务的具体内容
   - 避免理解偏差

Output: Status information for each thing (clarity + deadline + specific content)


📍 Step 3: Determine

Goal: Make priority judgments based on objective standards

Decision matrix:

Status Thought through Not thought through
Has deadline ✅ Do immediately(highest priority) ⚠️ Clarify first, then do or think while doing
No deadline 🔄 Do it if there is spare capacity ⏸️ Put it later/do not do it first

Decision logic:

  • ✅ Thought through + has deadline → Must do today/this week
  • ⚠️ Not thought through + has deadline → Spend time clarifying first, then do it
  • 🔄 Thought through + no deadline → Do it when you have spare capacity
  • ⏸️ Not thought through + no deadline → Lowest priority, schedule it later

Output: A priority label for each item


📍 Step 4: Decision

Goal: Form clear action instructions

Working method:

I will give you a layered priority list:

🔥 今天/本周必须做(1-2件事)
  - 任务A(理由:明天要用)
  - 任务B(理由:下周一deadline)

⚡ 有余力再做(2-3件事)
  - 任务C(理由:下周需要,但不急)
  - 任务D(理由:想清楚了,但没deadline)

⏸️ 往后排/先不做(其他所有事)
  - 任务E(理由:没想清楚)
  - 任务F(理由:没deadline,不紧急)

Key principle: Focus on only 1-2 most important things at a time

Output: A clear priority list + action instructions


📍 Step 5: Documentation

Goal: Record it down so it can be checked anytime

Working method:

  • I will write the priority list into a markdown document
  • saved in the location you specify (default:计划探索/ folder)
  • File name:YYYY-MM-DD-优先级清单.md

The document includes:

  • Things that must be done today (including reasons and deadlines)
  • Things to do when you have spare capacity
  • Things to schedule later
  • Execution suggestions

Output: 1 priority list document


Key optimization points

✅ A working style suited to creative/inspiration-driven people

What does not suit you (traditional methods):

  • ❌ Detailed task lists
  • ❌ Breaking things into small chunks (10 minutes, 15 minutes)
  • ❌ Strictly following the plan

What suits you (this skill's method):

  • ✅ Judge priority, do not list detailed tasks
  • ✅ Keep task granularity at the "1-2 hour" level (suitable for deep work)
  • ✅ Adjust flexibly, do not rigidly stick to the plan

✅ Identifying "not thought through" is key

Core insight:

  • A lot of low efficiency is not because you "do not know how to do it", but because you "have not thought clearly about what to do"
  • Starting to do it without thinking it through = wasting time
  • Think it through first, then execute = efficient

This skill will help you identify:

  • Which things are thought through and can be done immediately
  • Which things are still in a chaotic state and are not recommended to do now

✅ Focus on only 1-2 things at a time

Why?

  • A list of 30 things = you have to rethink "which one to do" every time
  • A list of 1-2 things = you know at a glance and can start immediately

This skill's principle:

  • It is not a list of all your tasks
  • Instead, it tells you "do these 1-2 things now, ignore everything else"

Opening flow

When you start this skill, I will:

  1. Confirm your state

    • What situation are you in right now? (There are many things to do, and you do not know where to start)
    • How much time do you have? (Today? This week?)
  2. Collect to-do items

    • Tell me what things you have to do
    • There is no need for order; say whatever comes to mind
  3. Ask about the status one by one

    • For each item, ask: Have you thought it through? Is there a deadline?
    • Add information (for example, you suddenly remember there are other things)
  4. Judge priority

    • Make judgments based on clarity + deadline
    • Give you a layered priority list
  5. Documentation

    • Record as a markdown document
    • You can check it at any time
  6. Follow-up support

    • When you start working on it, I can provide real-time support
    • When you finish a task, come back to me and we'll decide on the next one

Usage suggestions

Scenarios suitable for priority-judge:

  • ✅ You have a lot of things to do and don't know where to start
  • ✅ You feel inefficient, doing things as they come to mind
  • ✅ You want to quickly figure out what to do today/this week
  • ✅ Your work is creative and thinking-oriented, not suitable for fragmentation

Scenarios that may not be suitable:

  • ❌ You only have 1-2 things to do (too simple, no judgment needed)
  • ❌ You need detailed project management (use a project management tool)
  • ❌ Your work is process-oriented and suitable for fragmentation (use a traditional to-do list)

Reusable collaboration pattern

From now on, every time you have a lot of things to do, you can do this:

你说:"我有很多事要做,帮我理一下"
  ↓
我问:"告诉我都有哪些事?"
  ↓
你列出来
  ↓
我逐个问状态(想清楚了吗?有deadline吗?)
  ↓
我给你优先级判断
  ↓
你开始执行

Figure it out in 5 minutes, then start working immediately.
