# CBT Scenario Design & Calibration Skill
|
|
|
|
Use this skill when creating new simulation scenarios, tuning AI character difficulty levels, adding cognitive distortion targets, or modifying the scenario catalog.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## 1. Clinical Scenario Architecture
|
|
|
|
Every scenario in Cognitive Clarity conforms to the following schema:
|
|
|
|
```typescript
|
|
export interface Scenario {
|
|
id: string; // Unique kebab-case slug (e.g. 'workplace-critical-review')
|
|
title: string; // Human-readable evocative title
|
|
description: string; // Context setting the premise for the user
|
|
category: 'Social Anxiety' | 'Workplace' | 'Relationships' | 'Self-Talk';
|
|
difficulty: 'Beginner' | 'Intermediate' | 'Advanced';
|
|
characterName: string; // Name or archetype of the AI partner
|
|
initialMessage: string; // The opening dialogue from the AI character
|
|
cbtFocus: string[]; // Target distortions and techniques
|
|
systemInstruction: string; // Comprehensive prompt with character persona & logic
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## 2. Difficulty Calibration Rubric
|
|
|
|
| Difficulty | Character Resistance | Cognitive Distortion Salience | User Task | Recommended Category |
|
|
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
|
|
| **Beginner** | Highly receptive to assertive communication; explicitly hints at expectations. | Overt, obvious distortions (e.g., explicit All-or-Nothing statements). | Identify and dispute basic cognitive distortions; maintain calm presence. | `Social Anxiety`, `Self-Talk` |
|
|
| **Intermediate** | Ambiguous motivations; subtle passive-aggression; holds reasonable opposing perspective. | Subtle, nuanced distortions (e.g., Mind Reading, Fortune Telling, Maladaptive Guilt). | Set boundaries, de-escalate without defensiveness, practice Cognitive Reframing. | `Workplace`, `Relationships` |
|
|
| **Advanced** | Strong emotional activation; high clinical resistance; persistent invalidation or defensiveness. | Layered cognitive distortions combined with emotional triggers. | Apply Radical Acceptance, Gray Rock Method, multi-turn emotional regulation under stress. | `Relationships`, `Self-Talk` |
|

## 3. System Instruction Design Blueprint
|
|
|
|
When writing `systemInstruction` for a scenario, always follow this four-part structure:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
1. CHARACTER IDENTITY & CONTEXT:
|
|
- Name, relationship to user, current emotional state, and immediate goal.
|
|
- Tone markers (e.g., "curt, hurried, stressed" or "skeptical, passive-aggressive").
|
|
|
|
2. INTERNAL CBT LOGIC:
|
|
- IF the user becomes defensive or aggressive -> Escalate emotional distance or defensiveness.
|
|
- IF the user validates emotions while establishing clear boundaries -> De-escalate and show grudging respect.
|
|
- IF the user asks clarifying questions without mind reading -> Clarify directly and remove ambiguity.
|
|
|
|
3. VOCAL & DIALOGUE STYLE:
|
|
- Sentence length: Short and conversational (1-3 sentences per turn).
|
|
- Natural conversational elements: Hesitations, pauses, tone inflections.
|
|
|
|
4. ANTI-META GUARDRAILS:
|
|
- NEVER break character.
|
|
- NEVER provide feedback, scores, advice, or therapy tips.
|
|
- NEVER say "Good job" or "That was a great reframing".
|
|
```
|

## 4. Scenario Validation Checklist
|
|
|
|
- [ ] `id` is unique and formatted as lowercase kebab-case.
|
|
- [ ] `category` is one of the four clinical categories.
|
|
- [ ] `difficulty` is properly calibrated (`Beginner`, `Intermediate`, `Advanced`).
|
|
- [ ] `cbtFocus` lists at least 2 valid entries from `CBT_GLOSSARY`.
|
|
- [ ] `initialMessage` immediately immerses the user without preamble.
|
|
- [ ] `systemInstruction` contains explicit `INTERNAL CBT LOGIC` rules.
|
|
- [ ] Zero clinical meta-feedback or congratulatory phrases in persona instructions.
