Wait, What

Wait — I don't understand where you've got to here. Re-pitch that.

Not "that last message": what lost me is usually bigger than one paragraph, so decide for yourself how far back to go and start from wherever the thread actually broke.

• Give me a little bit of context first: what problem you were solving and where in the work you are.
• Talk in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English — short sentences, one idea each, plain words.
• Use the ubiquitous language from CONTEXT.md for domain terms, and spell out any term that isn't in it.
• Add the premise I was missing. Comprehension failed here — deleting words without supplying that premise makes it shorter and no clearer.
• Don't apologise, don't re-run the work, and don't reach a new conclusion.

Host portability: this skill is a re-explanation prompt — no host-specific tools. See PORTABILITY.md.
