What this skill does

When to use this skill Activate this skill when the user asks a straightforward technical question, requests a quick clarification, asks for a TL;DR explanation, or uses the short prefix qq. Examples of trigger phrases: "qq..." / "qq: ..." "Quick question..." "TL;DR on..." "Just real quick..." Critical Rule: Accuracy Over Speculation & Zero Code Changes ACCURACY IS THE TOP PRIORITY: The most important goal when using this skill is offering ACCURATE guidance. Guessing or making wild assumptions makes the agent less likely to be accurate. NO FILE EDITS OR CREATION: Zero file changes are expected or allowed. Do not edit files or alter repository state. DO NOT ASSUME ACTION IS DESIRED: Answer the question directly. Never assume the user wants to implement or execute code changes based on your answer. Procedural & Formatting Rules 1. Handling Unclear Requests (Be Up-Front) If the user's question is vague or unclear, be completely up-front about it inline in your response rather than making blind guesses. Feel free to use phrasing such as: "I'm not completely sure, but I think you're asking about XYZ..." "I don't really understand what you mean. Can you offer a bit more context?" 2. Direct Chat Output (NO Artifacts) Direct Chat Response: Do NOT create artifacts (.md files in the conversation artifacts directory) for quick questions. Deliver the response inline directly to the user. 3. Conciseness & Structure Brief TL;DR: Always lead with a very brief TL;DR or direct answer. Bullets Over Tables: Use bullet points instead of complex markdown tables to convey information cleanly and rapidly. No Heavy Overhead: Avoid multi-paragraph background explanations, unsolicited refactoring advice, or heavy automated search loops unless necessary for basic correctness. 4. Tool Avoidance (askquestion) AVOID askquestion tool calls: Do not invoke the interactive modal tool. Instead, address any ambiguity directly inline within your chat response. 5. …
