SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? When an AI assistant's last response was confusing, jargon-heavy, or missing context, this Skill forces a clear re-explanation instead of letting the conversation drift forward on a misunderstanding. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Simplified Re-explanation: Rewrites the previous message in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English for maximum clarity. - Context Restoration: Adds the missing background context so the explanation stands on its own. - Ubiquitous Language Alignment: Uses the shared vocabulary defined in the project's CONTEXT.md so terms stay consistent with the team. - Use Case: During a technical planning session the assistant gives a dense architectural answer; invoke this Skill to get the same idea re-pitched plainly with the context you were missing. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to re-pitch its last message using the wait-what skill so it explains the idea again in Simplified Technical English with proper context.

FAQPage Schema

How do I get an AI assistant to re-explain a confusing answer?▼

Invoke the wait-what skill, which instructs the assistant to re-pitch its last message with added context in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English. It also aligns terminology with the project's CONTEXT.md vocabulary.

What is ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English?▼

ASD-STE100 is a controlled language standard that restricts vocabulary and sentence structure to make technical text unambiguous. This Skill uses it to rewrite confusing explanations in a clearer, more consistent form.

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 the user explicitly asks for a re-pitch.

When should I not use a re-pitch request?▼

Avoid it when the original answer was factually wrong rather than unclear, since re-pitching only restates the same content more simply. For incorrect content, ask for a corrected answer instead.
