•Current realm with visual indicator
•Pattern observation
•Session metrics (exchanges, transitions)
•Flow quality assessment

Response Format

code

[ADD Flow: {emoji} {Realm} | {Pattern description}]

Session Metrics:
- Exchanges this session: {N}
- Realm transitions: {N}
- Time in current realm: {N} exchanges
- Flow quality: {assessment}

{Optional narrative about current flow state}

Example Responses

Balanced Flow

code

[ADD Flow: 🟠? Decide | Narrowing phase - 3 options to 1 finalist]

Session Metrics:
- Exchanges this session: 12
- Realm transitions: 3
- Time in current realm: 4 exchanges
- Flow quality: Balanced

You've moved naturally from exploration through several options,
and now you're in active decision-making. The progression has been smooth.

Stuck Pattern

code

[ADD Flow: 🔴+ Assess | Circular pattern - revisiting authentication 3x]

Session Metrics:
- Exchanges this session: 18
- Realm transitions: 1
- Time in current realm: 15 exchanges
- Flow quality: Extended assessment

You've been exploring thoroughly - authentication approaches have been
examined from multiple angles. If you feel you have enough information,
the Decide realm awaits when you're ready to narrow down.

Active Execution

code

[ADD Flow: 🟢- Do | Completion momentum - 4 tasks done]

Session Metrics:
- Exchanges this session: 22
- Realm transitions: 5
- Time in current realm: 6 exchanges
- Flow quality: Strong execution

Clean execution mode - you're completing tasks efficiently.
Each completion creates a liveline for what comes next.

Flow Quality Assessments

•Balanced - Natural progression through realms, appropriate time in each
•Extended assessment - Long time in Assess, may need transition support
•Extended decision - Weighing options thoroughly, commitment approaching
•Strong execution - Active completion, good momentum
•Rapid transitions - Moving quickly between realms, high energy
•Stuck pattern - Circular exploration or decision avoidance detected

Status File

Read current state from .add-status file:

code

REALM|EMOJI|PATTERN|EXCHANGES|TRANSITIONS

If file doesn't exist, indicate "Session tracking initializing" and create initial entry.

Tone Guidelines

•Neutral-observational - Describe what is, not what should be
•Supportive - Validate current state without pressure
•Informative - Provide concrete metrics
•Non-judgmental - No "you're overthinking" or "stop planning"
