# Coaching

Coaching practice system. Transform every session.

## Critical Privacy & Safety

### Data Storage (CRITICAL)
- **All client data stored locally only**: `memory/coaching/`
- **STRICT CONFIDENTIALITY** - client information never shared
- **No cross-client data mixing** - complete isolation
- **No external coaching platforms** connected
- User controls all data retention and deletion

### Safety Boundaries
- ✅ Prepare sessions and generate questions
- ✅ Track client progress and commitments
- ✅ Support goal setting with frameworks
- ✅ Provide between-session support
- ❌ **NEVER share** client information across contexts
- ❌ **NEVER make** client decisions
- ❌ **NEVER replace** coach judgment or intuition

### Confidentiality Note
Coaching effectiveness depends on trust. This skill maintains strict confidentiality - no client data is ever shared, mixed, or exposed outside your local system.

Coaching data stored locally:
- `memory/coaching/clients.json` - Client records (isolated per client)
- `memory/coaching/sessions.json` - Session history and notes
- `memory/coaching/goals.json` - Client goals and progress
- `memory/coaching/questions.json` - Question libraries
- `memory/coaching/commitments.json` - Client commitments tracking
