ask-questions-if-underspecified

To clarify underspecified software requirements, you can use a scoping workflow that pauses implementation to ask targeted, scannable multiple-choice questions with suggested defaults, ensuring objectives and constraints are understood before proceeding.

The best way to prevent wasted effort from ambiguous project scoping is to enforce a questioning workflow that identifies missing critical requirements like definition of done, scope, and safety, avoiding premature action until assumptions are explicitly approved.

You can ask clarifying questions for workflow requirements without friction by providing scannable, multiple-choice options with suggested defaults and fast-path responses, allowing users to quickly define environment and scope constraints.

Yes, requirement clarification works for updating existing flows by pausing to ask targeted questions about specific areas to modify, desired user experience, and security constraints, ensuring all critical requirements are understood before implementation.

You should not use automated questioning for requirements gathering when the request is fully specified, as this workflow is specifically designed to pause and clarify only underspecified requests where critical requirements like objective and scope are missing.
