TOPIC DEPTH / SELF-OBSERVATION

From knowledge to self-observation

This layer organizes the existing topic rules. It does not add new claims or diagnoses.

NEXT SMALL STEPRecord one observation from the last 24 hours and choose the smallest safe step.

How to observe

The minimum needed for meaningful self-observation.

Topic boundaries

  • the app does not diagnose addiction
  • do not require complete abstinence

Data limitations

  • Conclusions from a small number of check-ins are hypotheses.
  • User self-report may be incomplete or variable.
  • The app observes patterns; it does not confirm causes.

Interpretation limitations

  • Do not use this for diagnosis or treatment.
  • Do not promise an outcome or health improvement.
  • Do not strengthen wording beyond the current level of source verification.
  • If the user describes a health risk or crisis, the safety router takes priority.

Source limitations

  • Sources require manual verification before strong claims are allowed.
EVIDENCE POLICY

Use for education and self-observation, not diagnosis or treatment.

WHEN CONFIDENCE IS LOW

Suggest a small safe step and encourage observation rather than a radical change.
