FAQPage Schema
How do I get a simpler explanation of a technical answer?

Invoke this Skill after receiving a confusing message. It instructs the assistant to re-pitch the last response in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English, adding the context that was missing the first time.

What is ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English?

ASD-STE100 is a controlled language specification that restricts vocabulary and sentence structure to make technical documentation clearer. This Skill applies those rules when rewriting the assistant's previous message.

Can this Skill be triggered automatically by the model?

No. The Skill sets disable-model-invocation to true and its policy disallows implicit invocation, so it only runs when you explicitly request it.

Does the re-pitched explanation use project-specific terminology?

Yes. The instructions direct the assistant to use the ubiquitous language defined in the project's CONTEXT.md file, keeping rewritten explanations consistent with your domain vocabulary.

When should I not use this Skill?

Avoid it when the original message was already clear or when you need deeper technical detail rather than simplification. It only re-explains the last message; it does not generate new analysis.
