How To Know Your Fatigue Baseline Is Ready
Do not ask Hydrogen for deep explanations too early. First check whether your baseline is stable enough to compare real periods instead of noisy days.

Two or three normal workdays are the minimum useful baseline.
Coverage quality matters more than asking too early.
Comparison prompts outperform vague summary prompts once the baseline is ready.
The main mistake
Most people ask for interpretation before the Windows app has enough normal workdays to establish a pattern.
That often creates weak answers because the system is comparing unstable coverage, not stable behavior.
A better readiness check
Start by asking whether your recent coverage is strong enough for comparison analysis.
Aim for two or three normal workdays before your first serious comparison.
Use seven to fourteen days when you want stronger pattern calls.
Treat low-confidence or interrupted days as context, not conclusions.
First questions that tend to work well
Once the baseline is ready, comparisons outperform vague prompts.
Compare my last 14 days against the previous 14.
Which low-energy window repeats most on workdays?
What changed in my active minutes this week versus last week?
