# Wait What

Find the immediately preceding substantive assistant response in the current
conversation. Exclude tool calls and outputs, hidden reasoning or instructions,
and this invocation itself.

If the user gives a hint about what was confusing, use it to focus the
explanation. If no qualifying assistant response exists, say so plainly; do not
invent prior context or an answer.

Follow the `explain` skill to re-explain the selected response. This wrapper
only selects the context and focus; it does not duplicate the explanation
process.
