Frame a low-stakes way to name the tension
Drafts a direct but low-stakes way to surface a detected friction or tension that invites honest response rather than defensiveness.
In / outDetected friction signal + relationship context → wording, moment, and framing that names the tension without escalating
You might say…
“I've spotted the drift — now I need to name it in a way that opens it up, not shuts it down.”
What it does
Given a detected friction signal, drafts a direct but low-stakes way to surface the concern that invites honest response rather than defensiveness — the wording, the moment, and the framing that names the tension early without escalating it. Used to convert a noticed drift into a proactive conversation before it becomes a rupture.
Trigger: Use when a friction signal has been detected and needs to be raised proactively before it becomes a rupture.
