WTF

Use this skill when the immediately previous response from an LLM was unclear, too dense, or difficult to follow.

Procedure

1. Read the immediately previous LLM response.
2. If the response uses domain terms, first inspect repository guidance for its declared glossary authority and bounded-context scope. If none is declared, check common locations such as CONTEXT.md, GLOSSARY.md, UBIQUITOUS_LANGUAGE.md, and *.glossary.yml without creating a new convention.
3. Use only the glossary that owns the relevant context to select canonical terms and meanings.
4. Re-explain the previous response with a clearer structure and simpler wording.
5. Preserve its meaning and all relevant technical details.
6. Keep the explanation about the previous response.
7. Do not perform a new task.
8. Do not introduce information from the terminology files that the previous response did not contain.

Writing Rules

Write in a style inspired by ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English.

• Use active voice.
• Use plain UK English.
• Write for a reading level between Key Stage 4 and Further Education.
• Use the same term for the same concept throughout the explanation.
• Use precise and technically accurate wording.
• Use short sentences where possible.
• Use the imperative form for direct instructions.
• Put one main action in each sentence.
• Define an uncommon abbreviation or specialist term when it first appears.
• Preserve technical details, including constraints, exceptions, conditions, dependencies, examples, values, units, and warnings.
• Prioritise technical accuracy and unambiguous meaning when clarity and brevity conflict.

Clarity Controls

• Put each prerequisite, condition, warning, or limitation before the action to which it applies.
• Use the exact nouns from the previous response for files, commands, components, and values.
• Replace vague pronouns with the specific subject.
• Remove idioms, unnecessary synonyms, ambiguous references, and complex noun clusters.
• Do not add information that is not present in the previous response.
• State uncertainty when the previous response was uncertain.

Completion Criterion

The new explanation is complete when it re-explains the immediately previous LLM response, preserves its meaning and relevant technical details, and uses clearer plain language without starting new work.
