My 📝Self-RADAR Pre-Population Process is how I hand the chronological half of my weekly Self-RADAR to AI agents: they gather what happened in my week from my digital records and draft it, so my time goes to the emotional review, which is where the value always lived.
An Introduction to RADAR
📝RADAR is a relationship check-in created by the people behind 📝Multiamory. Partners sit down on a regular cadence, monthly in the original, and move through five steps: Review the time since the last check-in, Agree on what to talk about, Discuss it, set Action points, and Reconnect with something that brings them back together. Its power is the container. Hard topics get a scheduled place to land, so they stop leaking into every other day.
RADAR with Self
I used to do RADARs with my 📝nesting partner. When we separated, I was in the middle of healing and found myself missing the ritual: the structured pause to look back at what had happened and take stock of it. Then it landed that nothing about the process required a second person. I could be in that relationship with myself. That became the Self-RADAR, a weekly check-in I began running in 📝MythOS on Saturday or Sunday mornings. Others have surely built something similar, but turning that specific mechanism into a solo practice is where mine began.
My version grew its own shape. I organize the week around the 📝Types of Capital: 📝Spiritual Capital (quality time with myself and others), 📝Natural Capital (the work that generates income), 📝Financial Capital (money), 📝Social Capital (gatherings and introductions), and 📝Emotional Capital (my relationships with others and with myself). The close is grounded in 📝Relational Sovereignty, treating myself as my primary partner.
Automating to Amplify Value
The practice was deeply beneficial, and it was expensive. Each week I spent an hour to an hour and a half writing the chronology: this happened, then this, then this. Only afterward would I switch into emotional review, looking at what activated me, what I was grateful for, and what I was recognizing and wondering about. That second mode held nearly all the value. But I couldn't reach it with the same potency without first laying out everything that had happened. The chronology was the price of admission.
Eventually I noticed the chronology came from only a few places: my journal (I keep a 📝Daily Memo), my calendar, and my development work on 📝GitHub. So I built a pre-population template. An AI agent connects to those sources, pulls the week, sorts each item into its capital, and drafts the Self-RADAR for me to review before anything is saved. Rules in the template keep it honest: only what the records actually say, never invented feeling, never my money numbers, never my action points.
GitHub is specific to me; the principle isn't. Any digital trace your week leaves can feed the draft: messages, fitness data, photos, purchases, a task manager, call recordings. I later added my recorded calls, now through 📝Wispr Flow, and the memos I wrote in MythOS each week.
Journaling to Fill the Gaps
A few weeks in, I caught myself filling holes in my journal before I could run the pre-population: a missing morning, a call I never wrote down. I had already built a journaling companion, an agent that asks me short questions and writes my answers into my daily memo. So I folded it into the process. Now the agent reads the week first, reports the gaps day by day, interviews me about them, and only then drafts the Self-RADAR, once, against a complete journal.
A RADAR of Your Own
What I'm sharing is less a product than the record of a practice adapting to one person, and yours will adapt to you. The sections should reflect what you care about tracking. The data sources should be whatever your life actually leaves behind. The rules should grow each time a draft gets something wrong; most of mine arrived that way. Start with the structure, run it a few weeks, and let it become your own. 📝Self-RADAR with MythOS describes the practice in full, the 📝Self-RADAR Setup Memo is the on-ramp with a prompt to hand your agent, and the 📝Self-RADAR Pre-Population Process is the runbook.
