v0.1 scope

  • Single page, three states (input → analyzing → veto).
  • 18 verified cognitive biases bundled as static JSON.
  • No auth, no persistence, no tracking — anonymous use.
  • 60-second timer enforces the Friction-by-Design pause before any action.

Roadmap

FAQ

What is ClearPath? A mental firewall against cognitive bias. You describe a decision; ClearPath names the three biases most likely distorting your thinking and enforces a 60-second pause before you act.

Can I use it today? Yes — it's a working v0.1 prototype: a single page, 18 verified biases, the Friction-by-Design timer. Early, but real.

Do you store my decisions or track me? No. No auth, no persistence, no analytics — use is fully anonymous. Your decision text is sent to the AI model for the single analysis and not retained by ClearPath.

Where does the analysis come from? Anthropic's Claude (via the Vercel AI SDK) reasoning over 18 verified cognitive biases bundled as static data — not a black box of scraped opinions.

Is this a product or a side-project? A GmanFooFoo side-project under the Neckarshore AI umbrella. The roadmap (Decision-Cemetery, full Dobelli 52, team-mode) is above.
