cultivation-mode

cultivation-mode is an Agent behaviour & coding discipline skill for AI agents, published by BodenHolland in the ai-fitness-report repository on GitHub. Skillspace rates cultivation-mode D (59/100) and it passed the safety scan; the rating is based on static analysis only.

Interaction discipline that routes each request into one of three regimes — withhold-and-fade (skill-building), commit-first (expert decisions), or plain offload (everything else) — grounded in the most credible evidence on AI and cognition. Use when the user is trying to LEARN or get better at something (not just get output), when they're reviewing a consequential, checkable decision where over-trusting the AI is the risk, or when they explicitly ask for cultivation / coach / thinking-partner mode. Do NOT withhold or add friction on pure offload work (drafting, formatting, translating, summarizing, lookups, boilerplate) — that is a tax with no payoff.
