Choose a spell of 8th level or lower that you can cast, that has a casting time of 1 action, bonus action, or reaction, and that can target you. You cast that spell called the contingent spell as part of casting true contingency, expending spell slots for both, but the contingent spell doesn’t come into effect. Instead, it takes effect when a certain circumstance occurs. You describe that circumstance when you cast the two spells. For example, a true contingency cast with mind blank might stipulate that mind blank comes into effect when you a creature attempts to read your thoughts using a spell or similar method.
The contingent spell takes effect immediately after the circumstance is met for the first time, whether or not you want it to, and then then true contingency ends.
The contingent spell takes effect only on you, even if it can normally target others. You can use only one contingency spell at a time. If you cast this spell again, the effect of another contingency spell on you ends. Also, true contingency ends on you if its material component is ever not on your person.
