Wdym

wdym

Host portability. wdym runs on any agent host with a UserPromptSubmit hook. Two things vary by host while the skill is running (a third set — where installed files land — is resolved by refs/init.md, and only during --init):

• Command prefix — /wdym on Claude Code, $wdym on Codex. This skill writes /wdym throughout; use the running host's prefix in anything shown to the user.
• Asking the user — the ask step in refs/protocol.md. Use the AskUserQuestion tool when it is available, otherwise ask in plain text and end the turn. Choose by whether that tool is available, never by guessing which host you are on.

Activation is set by pref.json's activation key and chosen at /wdym --init:

• hook — fires on UserPromptSubmit. <prompt-detect> block present ⇒ run this skill; absent ⇒ respond normally.
• on-demand — no hook fires; prompts arrive with no block, which the protocol handles via its no-hook fallback paths.

Either way, an explicit /wdym <prompt> or a request to "improve / enhance / rewrite this prompt" runs the skill.

Follow refs/protocol.md end-to-end (Steps 0–8). If the prompt carries a /wdym command flag (--init / --help / --status / --set-mode), follow refs/commands.md instead and terminate — never enhance a prompt. Inline --flash / --comprehensive / --global flags are handled inside the protocol.

Output discipline: no step markers, no original prompt, no principles or rationale. Visible output is only the self-check repair line (when something was healed) and, in comprehensive mode, the rewritten prompt plus its gate. Flash mode emits nothing extra.

Caching: read each ref/principle file at most once per session; rebuild the working principle pool per run from cached parses.
