SKILL.md

Structured one-step-at-a-time facilitation pattern for interactive workshops and guided sessions.

Supports three entry modes: Guided (single question per turn), Context Dump (paste known details and skip redundancies), and Best Guess (infer missing context with labeled assumptions)

Provides real-time progress visibility with labels like Context Qx/8 and Scoring Qx/5, plus enumerated recommendations only at decision points to avoid interaction drag

Handles flexible multi-select responses (1,3 or 1 and 3), meta-question interruptions, and pause/resume controls without losing session state

Includes quick-select numbered answer options for regular questions, context-aware progression that avoids re-asking resolved topics, and a final summary with decisions and assumptions to validate

Purpose

Provide the canonical facilitation pattern for interactive skills: one step at a time, with clear progress, adaptive recommendations at decision points, and predictable interruption handling.

Key Concepts

One-step-at-a-time: Ask a single targeted question per turn.

Session heads-up + entry mode: Start by setting expectations and offering Guided, Context dump, or Best guess mode.

Progress visibility: Show user-facing progress labels like Context Qx/8 and Scoring Qx/5.

Decision-point recommendations: Use enumerated options only when a choice is needed, not after every answer.

Quick-select response options: For regular context/scoring questions, provide concise numbered answer options plus Other (specify) when useful.

Flexible selection parsing: Accept #1, 1, 1 and 3, 1,3, or custom text, then synthesize multi-select choices.

Context-aware progression: Build on previous answers and avoid re-asking resolved questions.

Interruption-safe flow: Answer meta questions directly (for example, "how many left?"), restate status, then resume.

Fast path: If the user requests a single-shot output, skip multi-turn facilitation and deliver a condensed result.
