SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Inline clarification loops sharpen vague goals before task creation, preventing misalignment and wasted effort.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Targeted questioning: runs a concise AskUserQuestion-style interview within the Boss pane to elicit missing details.
  • Slot extraction: identifies WHAT, WHY, and WHERE to crystallize scope.
  • Lightweight workflow: avoids spawning new windows or teams, keeping the context intact for downstream planning.

Quick Start

Provide a vague goal in the Boss pane and run the clarify skill to obtain a clarified, actionable goal.

FAQPage Schema
How do I clarify ambiguous goals before task creation without losing context?

Clarifying ambiguous goals before task creation requires identifying missing scope elements inline. This Skill extracts the WHAT, WHY, and WHERE slots from a vague goal by running a concise interview directly within the Boss pane, preventing misalignment without spawning new interfaces.

What is inline user interviewing for goal definition and how does it work?

Inline user interviewing for goal definition is a targeted clarification mechanism that asks up to three rounds of questions within the existing workspace. It identifies vague goal elements and extracts specific parameters to crystallize scope before outputting a single actionable goal block.

How do I extract WHAT, WHY, and WHERE slots from a vague planning requirement?

Extracting WHAT, WHY, and WHERE slots from a planning requirement involves running a targeted clarification loop. The Skill analyzes the ambiguous goal, questions the user to elicit missing details, and maps the responses into these three defined slots for precise task formulation.

Can I use inline clarification loops for task creation without opening new windows?

Inline clarification loops for task creation run entirely within the Boss pane without opening new windows or spawning new teams. This lightweight workflow keeps the original context intact, making it suitable for users who need to maintain their workspace state during goal definition.

What is the maximum number of question rounds allowed during goal clarification?

The maximum number of question rounds allowed during goal clarification is strictly three. The Skill enforces a hard limit of up to three AskUserQuestion rounds and automatically stops the interview process once the goal is sufficiently clarified to prevent excessive questioning.

What's the best way to refine vague requirements into an actionable task formulation?

The best way to refine vague requirements into an actionable task formulation is through structured slot extraction. By applying targeted questioning to identify the WHAT, WHY, and WHERE, this approach outputs a single clarified-goal block ready for downstream planning tools.
