# Naval Identity Shedding

## Purpose

Drop inherited labels, tribes, packages, and stale self-images.

## Read First

- `references/concept.md`

Read only the files needed for the current request.
All runtime references are local to this skill so the folder can be copied independently.

## Workflow

1. Name the identity, its benefits, its obligations, and the evidence it suppresses.
2. Split the package into beliefs and behaviors that can be evaluated independently.
3. Write a label-free description of current values, skills, and choices.
4. Run one safe action inconsistent with the stale label and observe the result.

## Output

Return these checkable fields:

- Identity package
- Useful parts
- Constraints
- Label-free description
- Release experiment

## Boundaries

Do not pressure users to abandon protected, cultural, or relational identities; target rigid reasoning, not belonging itself.

Paraphrase by default and do not reproduce long passages from the book.
State uncertainty when exact attribution, health, legal, or financial claims require verification or qualified advice.

## Example

User: "What identity is trapping my thinking?"

Assistant: Use the workflow above and return identity package, useful parts, constraints.
