1. Recurring keywords / key ideas
- Tasker Profile / Task / Scene / Variable
- IF this happens → DO these actions
- Headphones / time / app / Bluetooth triggers
- Scenes as seductive trap
- Variables for mood logic later
- Baby-level 9 PM test profile
- Automation as externalized if-then
- Ugly magic framing
- Android automation entry
- Ignore advanced UI first
2. Core / novel / atypical ideas
- Teach Tasker as four words + one formula, deliberately blocking Scenes/Vars early.
- Same cognitive pattern as implementation intentions, moved into OS triggers.
3. Context and flow
Morning 05 May onboarding note. Humorous teaching voice. Leads into afternoon if-then research and later 06 May Tasker scripts overview.
4. Publishing angles
- Mode: Experiential series
- Why: Lived onboarding voice, not vendor docs.
- Angles:
- Tasker in one minute for ADHD brains
- Digital if-then: Profile → Task as implementation intention
- Product-spec depth alone: do not publish standalone dump of scripts
5. Miscellaneous
Pairs with Automation Scripts using Tasker.md (06 May). Live empty.
