When to Use

Use the question skill when:

  • Ambiguous instructions: The user's request is unclear
  • Missing decision: An essential target or factual choice is genuinely absent
  • Essential preference: Several irreversible outcomes are valid and the user's preference is required
  • Missing information: You need details to proceed

  "options": ["PostgreSQL", "SQLite", "MongoDB"]
}

Parameters

Parameter Type Required Default Description
