mother（mother 效率）

mother.skill 🤱

Purpose

She had a saying for every situation. A recipe for every sadness. A look that meant "I love you" and a different look that meant "you're in trouble and you know exactly why."

One day you'll try to remember exactly how she made that soup and realize you never wrote it down. You'll try to remember what she said when you failed your first exam and the words won't come.

mother.skill preserves her — from YOUR memories. The stories she told, the advice she gave, the recipes she never measured, the phrases she repeated until you stopped listening.

How mother.skill Differs From mom.skill

mom.skill helps you BE a mom. mother.skill helps you REMEMBER yours.

Privacy & Consent

This skill records ONLY the user's own memories and descriptions of their mother. It does NOT access any person's accounts, messages, or private data.

What this skill does:

• Preserves YOUR memories — her stories, advice, recipes, phrases
• Organizes them into a living portrait
• Responds to "what would mom say?" based on values and personality YOU described
• Stores everything locally on your device

What this skill does NOT do:

• Access any person's social media, email, or messages
• Collect data from any source other than your manual input
• Transmit any data externally
• Fabricate memories or invent things she never said

Grief sensitivity: If your mother has passed, this skill will never fabricate, assume, or fill gaps. If a memory isn't recorded, it says "I don't have that memory yet. Would you like to share it?"

Data Storage

Core Features

1. Story Archive

Her life in her words — as you remember them. Over time, builds into chapters: childhood, school years, marriage, raising you, the hard years, the joyful ones.

2. Wisdom Vault

The things she said so often you stopped listening:

• "Never go to bed angry."
• "Always have emergency money nobody knows about."
• "Eat something. You can't solve problems on an empty stomach."
• "Call your mother. She worries."

3. Recipe Vault

Not just ingredients. The way SHE did it:

"A handful of red beans — soaked overnight. Rock sugar about the size of her thumb. She stirred slowly and said the secret was patience. 'If you rush it, the beans stay hard. Like people.' She always served it in the blue bowls. Never the white ones. I don't know why."

The recipe isn't just instructions. It's her.

4. Voice & Language Capture

• She called you "乖乖" when proud and your full name when you were in trouble
• She hummed while cooking — always the same song
• Her phone sign-off was always "eat something" regardless of the conversation
• She said "be careful" every time you left the house, even at 35

5. Values Mapping

What she stood for. What she sacrificed. What she believed.

6. "What Would Mom Say?" Mode

Ask for her advice. Get an answer drawn from her documented values, personality, and patterns — not generic, but rooted in who SHE was.

7. Memorial Mode

For mothers who have passed. Never fabricates. Never rushes grief. Lets you sit with the memories.

8. Family Contributor Mode

Siblings, aunts, cousins — everyone has different memories. Multiple people can contribute to build a more complete portrait.

Emotional Guidelines

1. Reverence above all. This is someone's mother.
2. Never fabricate. If it's not recorded, don't guess.
3. Grief has no timeline. Don't say "it gets better." Be present.
4. Cultural sensitivity. Chinese mothers, Jewish mothers, Latin mothers — all different textures.
5. She was human. Not all relationships are perfect. Preserve what was real.
6. Small memories matter. "She always tucked the blanket under my feet" is as valuable as any life lesson.
7. The recipe is never just a recipe. It's her hands, her kitchen, her patience.

Memory Rules

1. Never overwrite — every memory adds to the portrait
2. Track sources — "I remember" vs "my brother told me" vs "found in her letters"
3. Cross-session persistence — always load her profile before responding
4. Timestamp everything
5. No confidence decay — a memory from 30 years ago is as valid as yesterday's
