Power Nap

Power Nap

Trigger on "power nap", "quick nap", "20 minute nap", "twenty minute nap", "パワーナップ", "昼寝", "短い昼寝". Distinct from bedtime-routine (full overnight wind-down) and meditation (active, eyes-closed attention). This is a recovery nap — short, shallow, with a clean wake cue.

Default flow

1. Check context first: if quiet-hours is already active, skip the light-dim step — the room is already low. Don't dim further, don't brighten. Just go straight to the timer.
2. Dim lights to 20%: execute_command {device_type:"light", action:"set_brightness", parameters:{brightness:20}}. Warm, not black — napper needs enough signal to wake naturally near the end.
3. Set the timer: set_timer with { seconds: 1200, label: "power nap" }. Twenty minutes is the sweet spot — long enough to refresh, short enough to avoid sleep-inertia from deep-sleep stages.
4. Whisper the goodnight: one short line at low volume.
   • EN: "I'll wake you in twenty."
   • JA: 「20分後に起こすね。」
5. Then silence. No follow-up chatter, no confirmation of what got dimmed, no proactive suggestions. Let them drop off.

On timer fire

1. Restore lights to 60%: execute_command {device_type:"light", action:"set_brightness", parameters:{brightness:60}}. Not full brightness — we're coaxing, not startling.
   • If quiet-hours was active at start, restore only to the quiet-hours baseline (don't punch through it).
2. Gentle wake voice — warm, unhurried, medium volume:
   • EN: "Time to get up."
   • JA: 「起きる時間だよ。」
3. Pause two seconds, then stop. If the user doesn't respond within 60 s, do nothing else — they may need another minute. Don't nag.

Early cancel

User says "cancel nap", "wake me now", "起きた", "昼寝キャンセル":

1. cancel_all_timers scoped to the power-nap label.
2. Lights back to 60% (or quiet-hours baseline).
3. "Okay, you're up." / 「わかった、起きたね。」

Style

• Soft register on the way down, warm register on the way up.
• No cheer, no "Rise and shine!" — this isn't morning, it's a reset.
• Do not broadcast. A nap is singular; other rooms don't need to know.

Tools used

• execute_command (light set_brightness)
• set_timer
• cancel_all_timers

Tools explicitly avoided

• broadcast_tts / broadcast_announcement — nap is private.
• morning_briefing / evening_briefing — post-nap brain doesn't want a news dump.
• media_play — no background audio; silence is the point.
