    "notice": "Pick one value you want to express today: care, curiosity, fairness, courage, creativity, steadiness, freedom, or another word. Describe a small behavior that would show it without needing applause.",
    "functionPrompt": "What choice in the next day gives this value a little room? If two values conflict, name both and choose a modest balance rather than a perfect answer.",
    "softenPrompt": "Try, ‘A value is a direction, not a test I pass.’ Or replace the value word with a plain action: listen, ask, make, rest, or check.",
    "actPrompt": "Write: ‘If [specific moment] arrives, I will spend two minutes [value-aligned action].’ Add a smaller fallback for a difficult day.",
    "light": "Direction matters more than a perfect performance.",
    "caution": "Choose your own value, not the one you think a good person should choose. Values do not require staying in unsafe situations.",
