    "notice": "Only if it feels useful and private enough, write up to a few lines about one manageable situation: ‘What happened was…; the effect on me was….’ Set a maximum of ten minutes, and stop sooner if the writing becomes a replay.",
    "functionPrompt": "What present need can you name without explaining the other person or reliving the event? A boundary, support, distance, rest, and ‘I do not know yet’ are all possible.",
    "softenPrompt": "End with ‘What I need now, from myself or safe support, is….’ Keep it practical. If no words help, stop writing and use Ground.",
    "actPrompt": "Choose one private two-minute step toward that need. Do not send the reply. Decide whether to discard the writing; it need not become part of your Field Map or any saved session.",
    "light": "A reply can clarify a need without becoming a message.",
    "caution": "Do not write identifying details on a monitored or shared device. Choose ‘do not save’ or skip this card. No automatic save, export, or message is appropriate for this exercise.",
