Research draft, second pass

A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description

Let an agent explain stress and its biology and psychology, distinguish acute, chronic and positive stress, relay coping and support guidance from health bodies, separate biological and environmental senses, and route personal mental health questions to professionals and crises to services.

The physiological and psychological response of an organism to demands or threats, involving activation of the nervous and endocrine systems, that can be adaptive and short-lived, sometimes called eustress, or chronic and harmful when demands persist, contributing to mental and physical illness; stress is also used for water stress in plants and environments, and for social pressures such as overchoice, and is studied in psychology, medicine, biology and public health.

What it is for: Response to demands or threats.

It can be explain biology and psychology; distinguish kinds of stress; relay coping guidance; route personal questions.
