Explain

explain

Make the content understandable without dumbing it down dishonestly.

Workflow

1. Get the text (via fetch-content skill script if it's a URL, else web fetch or paste).
2. Pick the depth — from the user's request, or ask one short question if genuinely unclear:
   • ELI5 — analogies, zero jargon, the core mechanism only
   • Practitioner — assumes general technical literacy, focuses on how it works and what to do with it
   • Deep dive — mechanisms, edge cases, history, competing views
3. Explain, structured as:
   • The one-sentence version first
   • The mechanism: how it actually works, step by step
   • Glossary: every jargon term the content uses without defining, one line each
   • What the content assumes you know — the missing prerequisites that made it confusing
   • Where the content's own explanation is wrong or oversimplified, if it is — flag it, don't repeat it

Rules

• Explaining ≠ endorsing. If the content's claim is contested, present the explanation and note the contest ("the video asserts X; the standard view is Y").
• Analogies must survive scrutiny — say where the analogy breaks.
• If the user points at a specific segment ("the part at 12:30", "section 3"), explain that segment in the context of the whole, not in isolation.
• Don't pad: a concept that takes three sentences gets three sentences.
