CBT Cards / Agent Skills
Install a reflection technique, not another vague prompt.
A free, inspectable marketplace of 15 portable Agent Skills: 11 reviewed reflection techniques and 4 reviewed metaphor memory aids for Hermes Agent, OpenClaw, and other Agent Skills-compatible assistants.
Free · portable · source-linked
One skill. One job. Clear stop rules.
Each package is a plain SKILL.md. The agent gets a trigger, explicit exclusions, a procedure, a response contract, provenance, and a no_match path. The marketplace does not silently turn the raw toolkit into agent advice.
General wellness only. These skills are not diagnosis, treatment, medical advice, emergency support, or permission to remove genuine safety measures, professional requirements, accessibility aids, medication instructions, legal controls, compliance checks, financial safeguards, or safeguarding duties.

Test Your Prediction
Turn one specific low-stakes prediction into a safe observation and compare it with the result.
practice-test-your-prediction
Problem or Worry?
Separate a practical problem from a future-focused what-if, then choose one action or review point.
practice-problem-or-worry
Spot the Safety Behavior
Identify an extra reassurance or protection behavior only after checking that it is not genuinely protective.
practice-spot-the-safety-behavior
Park and Return
Capture one non-urgent worry, choose when to review it, and return to the current task.
practice-park-and-return
Reflection or Replay?
Check whether another round of analysis is producing a new fact, decision, or action—or only repetition.
practice-reflection-or-replay
One Less Check
Skip one clearly non-essential extra check in an objectively low-risk situation and observe the uncertainty.
practice-one-less-check
The Smallest Approach Step
Shrink a genuinely safe avoided task until one observable approach step is small enough to do now.
practice-smallest-approach-step
Set the Good-Enough Contract
Define fit-for-purpose completion criteria before another pass on discretionary work.
practice-good-enough-contract
Use a Continuum, Not a Verdict
Replace a total success/failure judgment with specific dimensions that can vary by degree.
practice-continuum-not-verdict
Describe the Behavior, Not the Identity
Translate a global identity label into a specific description while keeping real responsibility visible.
practice-behavior-not-identity
Run the Same-Standard Check
Compare the rule used for yourself with the rule used for another person in genuinely similar circumstances.
practice-same-standard-check
Metaphor skills
4 memory aids. Not evidence.
These source-toolkit metaphors were reviewed specifically for bounded Agent Skill use. Each package says when the metaphor stops being useful and when real-world safety wins.
The Invisible Fence
For outdated learned rules: check whether the real-world fence is actually gone before considering any step forward.
metaphor-4
The Storm That Never Came
For prediction uncertainty: separate a loud forecast from present evidence without dismissing real warning signs.
metaphor-5
The Slow Flame
For changes that feel too large: focus on one small repeatable action without promising a dramatic outcome.
metaphor-18
The Skater Who Fell
For a single setback being turned into permanent inability: separate the event from a total verdict while preserving accountability.
metaphor-19
Why only 15?
The pinned source toolkit has 115 records. That is a source corpus, not a permission slip to turn every record into agent behavior. A skill is published here only when its underlying CBT Cards practice is already reviewed, or when a source-toolkit metaphor has been explicitly reviewed for the agent_skill publication surface.
Protocols remain behind their separate review gate. Unlisted source records remain unreviewed and source_only. See the 115-record editorial audit and publication review status.
Free does not mean license-free.
The skill files are free to install and inspect under CC BY-NC-SA 4.0. That does not silently grant unrestricted commercial redistribution. Preserve the source, license, stable ID, and safety context when adapting a skill.
