SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Guides decision-making when facing open-ended requests or multiple viable approaches. Uses VS Code native ask_questions tool for structured UI widgets. Activates when user asks "what should I", "help me decide", "which approach", or gives vague instructions requiring clarification.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Provides a deterministic decision flow to resolve ambiguity in real-time conversations.
  • Offers heuristics to infer intent and batch questions when needed.
  • Integrates with VS Code's ask_questions tool to gather structured user input.

Quick Start

Activate the interactive decision flow to resolve ambiguity in user requests.

Frequently Asked Questions about mode-interactive

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I resolve ambiguity in open-ended software development requests?▼

To resolve ambiguity, use a deterministic decision flow with heuristics that guides when to ask clarifying questions versus proceeding with an inferred approach for multi-viable tasks.

When should I ask clarifying questions versus proceed with a chosen approach?▼

You should ask clarifying questions when facing vague instructions or multiple viable paths, and proceed when heuristics can confidently infer intent to avoid unnecessary interaction friction.

How do I use the ask_questions tool to gather structured user input in VS Code?▼

You can use the VS Code native ask_questions tool to gather structured user input by triggering an interactive decision flow that presents UI widgets for real-time conversation clarifications.

What is the best way to handle vague UX design instructions with multiple viable solutions?▼

The best way to handle vague UX design instructions is to apply a decision flow that batches clarifying questions, resolving multiple viable approaches through structured interactive UI widgets.

Can I batch clarifying questions for ambiguous tasks in VS Code integrations?▼

Yes, you can batch clarifying questions for ambiguous tasks by leveraging interaction guidelines that infer intent and group necessary queries into a single structured ask_questions prompt.

What are the limitations of using interactive decision flows for real-time conversations?▼

A key limitation is the potential for interaction friction; while decision flows provide heuristics to infer intent, overly ambiguous requests may still require multiple rounds of structured questions.
