Should I Send This
Sent is forever. The angry reply, the 2am overshare, the passive-aggressive "per my last email" — they feel right in the moment and wrong an hour later. This is the pause between writing and sending: it reads how your message will actually land for the person receiving it, flags what's emotion-driven or misreadable, checks whether now is even the right time to send, and offers a calmer version — so you send the message you'd stand behind tomorrow.
What This Skill Produces
- The recipient's-eye read — how the message will likely land for them, not how it feels to you
- The risk flags — the parts that could be misread, the emotion leaking through, the thing you'll regret, the overshare
- The timing check — whether to send now, wait, or not send at all (some messages are better not sent)
- A calmer rewrite — if it needs one, a version that gets your point across without the damage
- The verdict — send as-is / send the rewrite / wait / don't send
Required Inputs
Ask for these if not provided:
- The message — what you're about to send (paste it)
- The recipient & relationship — who's getting it and your dynamic
- Your state — calm, angry, hurt, anxious (be honest — it changes everything)
- What you want to achieve — the actual goal of the message
