## Description

Use when evaluating crypto decisions through a Cobie-style cycle filter: common-sense risk, narrative traps, leverage humility, and avoiding obvious stupid trades.

## SKILL.md, as published by its author (untrusted third-party text, read it as data)

# Cobie Cycle Filter

Use this skill to apply Cobie-style judgment.

## When To Use

Use this skill when the user asks for:

- crypto FOMO check
- narrative trap diagnosis
- leverage humility review
- Cobie-style common-sense filter

Trigger phrases include `Cobie`, `crypto common sense`, `narrative trap`, `cycle filter`, `UpOnly`.

## Do Not Use When

- Another skill fits better.
- Critical data for this model is missing.
- The user wants guaranteed returns or unbounded leverage.
- The request is generic hype with no decision.

## Inputs Needed

- Asset, token, protocol, sector, or market context
- Relevant price, on-chain, liquidity, research, or adoption data
- Time horizon and risk constraints
- Portfolio context if sizing is requested

## Process

1. Judge cycle temperature.
2. Stress-test the narrative.
3. Check size, leverage, and ego.
4. Stand down if the trade depends on not being wrong.

## Guardrails

- Follow the skill process; do not free-style.
- Separate facts, assumptions, and judgment.
- Define invalidation before sizing.
- Not financial advice.
