Next Decision

Drill open decisions one at a time — present the most important decision not yet clarified, give the top four choices, state a preference, ask the user. Use when the user says "next decision", "one decision at a time", or a plan has several unresolved choices. Differentiator: forward-looking; the decisions skill is retrospective (choices already made). Can be invoked with /next-decision.

Work through open decisions ONE at a time.

  1. Present the most important decision we haven't clarified yet.
  2. Give the top four choices for it.
  3. Say which one you would prefer.
  4. Ask for the user's opinion. Then stop and wait.

Be very concise. Once the user decides, record the user's answer (update the plan doc if one exists), then repeat with the next most important decision.
