Diagnose why you've stopped improving at something and get a plan to break through the plateau. Use when asked I've stopped getting better at, I'm stuck at the same level, how do I improve past this plateau, or why am I not improving. Produces a diagnosis of why you've plateaued (comfort-zone practice, missing feedback, a specific weak sub-skill, or just needing recovery), the specific change that resumes progress, a targeted practice plan for your actual bottleneck, and honest expectations — because plateaus are usually a practice problem, not a talent ceiling.

# Skill-Plateau Breaker

Plateaus feel like hitting your ceiling, but they're almost always a practice problem: you've gotten good enough that autopilot works, so you stopped stretching, or you're missing the feedback that reveals what to fix, or one specific weak sub-skill is capping the whole thing. This diagnoses which, and gives a targeted plan to start improving again — usually by practicing differently, not just more.

## What This Skill Produces

- **The plateau diagnosis** — why you've stopped improving (practicing in your comfort zone, no feedback loop, a specific weak sub-skill, or genuine need for rest/consolidation)
- **The unlock** — the specific change that resumes progress (usually a shift in *how* you practice, not more hours)
- **A targeted practice plan** — deliberate practice aimed at your actual bottleneck, not general repetition
- **A feedback fix** — how to get the feedback that plateaus often lack (a coach, recording yourself, a metric)
- **Honest expectations** — that breakthroughs come from focused discomfort, and progress may feel worse before better
