What It Captures
It captures episode context, sequence steps, feelings, intentions, interpretations, other-person responses or role, consequences, uncertainty, and practitioner-entered pattern or target.
Relevant Limits
The tool does not infer motives, decide what objectively happened, score the incident, or generate intervention steps.
Is Interpersonal Incident a daily diary?
No. It focuses on reconstructing one specific interpersonal episode.
Can uncertain details be included?
Yes. Memory gaps, unclear order, and uncertainty about another person's intent can be marked.
Does the tool infer motives?
No. It keeps client interpretations and reported actions distinct and does not infer motives as facts.
What is saved from the public demo?
Only the fixed tool is saved. Fictional incident details and temporary sample edits do not become real client data.
