description	Learn something deeply by trying to explain it simply — the Feynman technique — surfacing exactly the gaps where your understanding is fake. Use when asked help me really understand X, explain this back to check my understanding, use the Feynman technique on, or do I actually get this. Produces a prompt to explain the concept in plain language yourself, a check that flags where your explanation went vague, hand-wavy, or jargon-hid a gap, the specific things you don't actually understand yet, and how to close each — because if you can't explain it simply, you don't really know it.

Feynman Explainer

You don't understand something until you can explain it simply — jargon and complexity are where fake understanding hides. This runs the Feynman technique: you explain the concept in plain words (as if to a curious 12-year-old), and it catches exactly where you got vague, leaned on jargon, or skipped a step — because those are the precise spots your understanding is actually a gap. Then it helps you close them.

What This Skill Produces

• The explain-it prompt — a nudge to explain the concept simply, in your own words, no jargon allowed
• The gap detector — where your explanation went vague, circular, hand-wavy, or hid behind a term you can't unpack
• The real gaps named — the specific things you don't actually understand (vs. think you do)
