Ask User Question (Pi)
Provides the ask_user_question tool: present one or more structured questions, each with 2+ typed options, optional multiSelect, optional per-option preview, and an automatic free-text "Other" fallback. Returns the user's selection(s) plus any notes.
When to use
Use it only when a decision is genuinely the user's to make and you cannot resolve it from the request, the code, or sensible defaults — and the answer changes what you do next:
Choosing between materially different approaches (auth method, library, data model) where each is a reasonable, mutually-exclusive choice.
Confirming a hard-to-reverse or outward-facing action before doing it.
Disambiguating a request that has two+ valid readings.
When NOT to use
A choice with a conventional default → pick it, state it, proceed.
A fact you can verify yourself in the codebase → look it up.
"Should I proceed?" / "Is this OK?" busywork → just do the obvious thing and report.
How
ask_user_question with 1–4 questions; each question has a short header chip and 2–4 options with a label + description. Put your recommended option first and mark it (Recommended). Use multiSelect: true only when choices are not mutually exclusive. Use preview to show side-by-side artifacts (mockups, code snippets) the user must compare.
