Read First

• ../../references/book-map.md
• ../../references/coverage-matrix.yaml
• ../../references/skill-catalog.md
• ../../references/chapter-summaries/wealth.md
• ../../references/workflows/wealth-scorecard.md
• ../../references/workflows/opportunity-scorecard.md

If these reference paths are unavailable, the install likely copied a skill without the sibling references/ folder. Ask the user to copy or symlink references/ beside the parent of the copied skills/ folder, or reinstall through the plugin/symlink path.

Use When

• The user asks for n-leverage-stack directly.
• The user asks: "What leverage can I add to this project?"
• The user is dealing with: find code, media, capital, labor, brand, distribution, and automation leverage.
• The situation would benefit from a scorecard or 7-day wealth experiment.

Workflow

1. Restate the user's situation in plain language.
2. Ask for missing context only when the decision would otherwise be unsafe or fake.
3. Apply the relevant Naval lens from the references.
4. Separate signal from status, desire, fear, identity, and generic self-help.
5. Convert the principle into a concrete decision, scorecard, experiment, practice, or next action.
6. Include a short caveat when the topic touches health, finance, legal risk, or exact citation.

Output

Return concise sections:

• Situation
• Naval lens
• Diagnosis
• Options or scorecard
• Recommended action
• 7-day experiment or daily practice
• What to avoid

Do Not

• Do not reproduce long book passages.
• Do not pretend Naval has one answer for every person.
• Do not give generic motivation when a decision, practice, or test is possible.
• Do not treat money, status, peace, health, and meaning as interchangeable.

Example

User: "What leverage can I add to this project?" Assistant: Apply this skill, cite the relevant reference section, and end with one concrete action.

Quality Bar

• Make the answer specific to the user's actual situation.
• Prefer one sharp recommendation over a buffet of advice.
• Name the tradeoff or hidden cost.
• End with something the user can do, test, stop, or observe today.
