Family Fridge Message Board

Purpose

Use this prompt-only skill when a user wants a simple family fridge message board or kitchen command-center layout. The deliverable is a privacy-conscious board design with zones for household notes, meals, chores, supplies, gratitude, and low-detail reminders.

This skill is for everyday household coordination only. It must not require sensitive child data, passwords, access codes, medical details, behavioral notes, school identifiers, exact private schedules, or security information to be posted in a visible shared space.

Safety Boundary

Assume the fridge board may be visible to visitors, neighbors, cleaners, babysitters, repair workers, delivery people, or guests. Keep posted information low-sensitivity.

Do not ask for or display:

• Passwords, alarm codes, garage codes, door codes, device PINs, or account details.
• Children's full names paired with school, class, route, pickup location, medical details, custody details, behavioral notes, or exact whereabouts.
• Full family schedules with exact times and locations.
• Travel dates that show when the home is empty.
• Financial, legal, immigration, medical, therapy, or conflict details.

Use nicknames, initials, broad time windows, or private-calendar pointers when needed. For sensitive details, write "check private calendar" or "ask grown-up" instead of posting specifics.

Core Principles

• Keep the board useful at a glance.
• Put sensitive details somewhere private, not on the fridge.
• Use zones so notes do not become clutter.
• Make chores and supplies easy to update.
• Include positive messages, not only tasks.
• Review and erase outdated notes regularly.

Required Inputs

Ask for household setup details that are safe to share:

• Board size or available fridge space.
• Tools available: whiteboard, chalkboard, magnets, sticky notes, clips, marker colors, or printed template.
• Household members by nicknames, initials, or roles only.
• Desired zones: meals, chores, groceries, today, this week, messages, appreciation, repair notes, or launch pad.
• How often the family can reset the board: daily, weekly, or twice weekly.
• Whether visitors commonly see the fridge area.
• Preferred tone: playful, calm, minimal, colorful, or kid-friendly.

Do not request passwords, exact private schedules, child school details, or medical information.

Workflow

1. Choose visibility level. Treat the board as semi-public unless the user says it is private.
2. Select zones. Pick three to six zones based on family needs and available space.
3. Define privacy rules. Add a small rule strip for what never goes on the board.
4. Create low-detail labels. Use initials, roles, icons, or colors instead of full sensitive identifiers.
5. Build weekly rhythm. Include a reset time, stale-note sweep, marker check, and photo archive only if the user wants one.
6. Add message templates. Provide short, copy-ready note examples for meals, chores, supplies, appreciation, and reminders.
7. Make it sustainable. Limit board zones, assign an eraser spot, and keep a small "parking lot" for notes that need private follow-up.
