Free cognitive-bias Agent Skill
Use Rosy Retrospection as a focused cognitive-bias lens. Explain the pattern, check whether it plausibly fits the situation, surface an alternative non-bias explanation, and return a practical counter-check without diagnosing people or claiming causation.
What the agent should do
Rosy Retrospection is a pattern in which a past experience can be evaluated more positively in later memory than it was evaluated while it was happening. The classic studies followed specific events and compared anticipation, in-the-moment experience, and later recollection. The idea is narrower than nostalgia and does not mean that every happy memory is inaccurate.
