What problem does it solve?
Ambiguity and high-stakes tasks often cause agents to act on unverified assumptions. This skill enforces a structured clarification protocol to surface critical uncertainties before acting.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Enforces a formal assumption mapping to reveal hidden beliefs.
- Identifies the most consequential assumption and frames a single clarifying question.
- Provides an action gate to proceed with explicit confidence or await clarification.
- Use cases: high-risk tasks, irreversible actions, or scenarios with multiple plausible interpretations.
Quick Start
Ask the user one targeted clarifying question to resolve the highest-priority assumption before proceeding.
