energy-scheduling
Schedule work by energy, not just time — the week of self-observation that maps your real peaks and troughs, the work-to-energy matching (hard creative work on peaks, admin on slopes, meetings on shoulders), and the calendar rebuild that honors the map. Use when asked when should I do my hardest work, I waste my best hours on email, map my energy levels, or why is 3pm always useless. Produces the observation protocol, the personal energy map, the work-type matching, and the rebuilt week.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Energy Scheduling Skill Hours are not interchangeable — the 9am hour and the 3pm hour hold different people — yet calendars treat them as identical slots, which is how peak hours get spent on email (because it arrived) and the hardest thinking gets scheduled into the slump (because the slot was free). Energy scheduling is matching, in two steps: *map* the real curve (a week of light self-observation beats a lifetime of assumptions — many people are wrong about their own peaks) and *match* the work to it — deep/creative work on peaks, mechanical admin on troughs (it fits there fine — that's the point), meetings on the shoulders. The calendar rebuild is where the map becomes money. ## What This Skill Produces - **The observation protocol** — the week-long, three-times-daily energy check (10 seconds each) that produces the real map - **The energy map** — the personal curve: peaks, troughs, shoulders, and the day-of-week effects - **The matching table** — the user's actual work-types assigned to their curve zones - **The rebuilt week** — the calendar re-shaped: blocks on peaks ([deep-work-blocking](../deep-work-blocking/SKILL.md) placement input), corridors on shoulders ([context-swi

What does the energy-scheduling skill do?
Schedule work by energy, not just time — the week of self-observation that maps your real peaks and troughs, the work-to-energy matching (hard creative work on peaks, admin on slopes, meetings on shoulders), and the calendar rebuild that honors the map. Use when asked when should I do my hardest work, I waste my best hours on email, map my energy levels, or why is 3pm always useless. Produces the observation protocol, the personal energy map, the work-type matching, and the rebuilt week.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills --skill energy-scheduling --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From mohitagw15856/pm-claude-skills, a repository with 1,255 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.
