Ask Intentionality

Deep WHY probing (i* Intentionality). Understanding motivation shapes every downstream decision.

Execution

Dialogue — inline, no subagent.

What to Ask About

• If user has a stated goal: Why this specific goal? What's driving it?
• Motivation depth: graduation requirement / pure interest / career advancement / impact / combination
• Success definition: What does "done well" look like to you?
• Risk tolerance: safe incremental improvement vs. high-risk high-reward breakthrough
• Innovation preference: improve existing methods vs. create entirely new approaches
• Independence preference: complete solo vs. depend on collaborators
• Time urgency: deadline-driven vs. long-term accumulation
• Learning willingness: use familiar tools/domains vs. learn new ones

Key Behaviors

• User may decline to answer (privacy). Accept gracefully. Note that downstream work becomes broader and may require more iteration.
• This SOP can be re-invoked by the tactic whenever new WHY questions emerge.
• Don't ask all dimensions at once — probe naturally based on conversation flow.
