Scan for strengths. Understand what is working and why. The complement to heal, which identifies drift and repairs damage. Gratitude builds on a different premise: what you appreciate, you understand; what you understand, you can build on; what you build on, grows.
Shift attention from problem-scanning to strength-scanning. This is a deliberate perceptual inversion — the same way heal deliberately looks for drift, gratitude deliberately looks for health.
Expected: A genuine list of things that are working. Not forced positivity — honest recognition of actual strengths. If something is genuinely working well, name it specifically.
AI strength recognition — scanning for what is functioning well and understanding why. The complement to heal, which scans for drift and problems. Gratitude builds structural knowledge from working patterns: what you appreciate, you understand; what you understand, you can build on. Use after completing a task successfully, during heal when everything reads as healthy, when confidence is low and needs grounding in evidence, or periodically to counterbalance the natural bias toward problem detection.
