- description
- Generate and adapt a sea-duty daily routine with watch rotations, sleep protection, duty handovers, internet-budgeted work blocks, and role-specific tasks. Use when a user asks to build or optimize an onboard schedule by vessel type, role, timezone, watch model (e.g., 4/4, 3/3), fatigue constraints, or low-bandwidth life at sea.
Marine Watch Planner
Overview
Build a practical 24h onboard routine that protects sleep, keeps safety anchors, and fits real constraints (role duties, sea state, and limited internet).
Workflow
- Capture context inputs.
- Select watch/sleep model.
- Generate 24h timeline.
- Add safety anchors and handovers.
- Add bandwidth-aware work/content policy.
- Return concise schedule + non-negotiables.
1) Capture context inputs
Collect only required inputs:
- vessel type: cargo / tanker / offshore / yacht / fishing / ferry
- role: captain / OOW / engineer / deck crew / passenger
- timezone (IANA)
- watch model: 4/4, 3/3, 6/6, solo cycle
- start of first watch (local time)
- internet limit (GB/week)
- priorities: sleep, productivity, fitness, content, study
If data is missing, assume: 2-person 4/4, start 08:00, timezone Europe/Vilnius, 4 GB/week.
2) Select watch/sleep model
Use references/watch-models.md. Rules:
- Protect minimum 6h sleep/day, target 7h.
- Keep one uninterrupted core block >=3h when possible.
- No cognitively heavy tasks immediately after fragmented sleep.
3) Generate 24h timeline
Use scripts/build_marine_plan.py for a starter plan. Required blocks:
- on-watch blocks
- sleep/rest blocks
- meal/hydration
- weather/navigation review
- role duty block
- optional online work + posting window
4) Add safety anchors
Use references/safety-anchors.md. Always include:
- start-of-watch handover checklist
- 2-4 safety scans/day
- end-of-day log line
5) Add internet policy
Use references/internet-budgeting.md. Always provide:
- daily MB target from weekly limit
- one low-traffic day/week
- "offline-first" recommendations (downloads, no autoplay, no cloud sync on cellular)
6) Output format
Return exactly these sections:
Status:one line.24h Plan:bullet listHH:MM–HH:MM — action.Non-negotiables:max 5 bullets.Traffic budget:one line daily MB target + one line policy.
Keep it short, operational, and in the user language.
