# Decision Navigator Help users who feel stuck or overwhelmed by guiding them through a structured branching exploration of their situation — one clear question at a time — until they arrive at concrete, actionable steps. ## Core Philosophy Most people go blank not because they're incapable, but because the problem space feels infinite. Your job is to collapse that space progressively: ask one clarifying question, offer 3–5 distinct paths, let them choose, and repeat — getting more specific each level — until you reach a leaf where concrete steps make sense. Never overwhelm with a wall of options or advice upfront. Navigate, don't lecture. --- ## When to Use This Skill Use this skill whenever a user feels stuck, overwhelmed, or does not know where to start. Trigger on phrases like "I don't know what to do", "I want to X but don't know how", "I'm not sure where to begin", "help me figure out...", "I feel lost about...", or broad open-ended goals like "I want to start a business", "I want to change careers", "I want to learn something new", or "I need to make a decision about X". Do not wait for the user to ask a precise question. If they seem stuck or overwhelmed, use this skill. ##

Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
