Example session with this skill installed
Here are my notes from the sync: We talked about the landing page. Sarah thinks the hero section is too busy. Mark said we need the API docs first. Maybe we launch Friday? Can you fix this? Turn this into a clear ask with the audience, owner, decision needed, timing, missing context, and a draft message. Do not send anything.
- Read your context and instructions
- Compiled the clear ask
Clear ask
Clean ask
Finalize the landing-page hero section and confirm whether the API documentation is a hard dependency for Friday’s launch.
Audience
Sarah (design) and Mark (engineering), with the project team as the decision audience.
What the source supports
- Sarah says the hero is too busy.
- Mark says the API docs are needed first.
- Friday launch is being considered, but the exact commitment is unclear.
- The notes do not name a decision owner or specify which visual elements need changing.
Owner and timing
- Sarah: identify the hero elements to simplify.
- Mark: confirm API-doc readiness and whether it blocks implementation.
- Project lead: confirm the Friday launch decision after those two inputs.
- Proposed internal checkpoint: end of day Thursday; this is a suggested timing, not source-backed.
Decision needed
Is the hero redesign blocked on the API documentation, or can design and engineering proceed in parallel?
Open questions
- Is Friday a committed launch or a target?
- Which hero elements are too busy?
- Who has final sign-off?
Draft message
Hi Sarah and Mark — to assess Friday’s launch target, could Sarah list the hero elements to simplify and could Mark confirm whether the API docs are required before implementation? Please reply by EOD Thursday with any blocker and name the final decision owner. I’ll update the launch plan once we have both answers.
Why this is safer
It turns “Can you fix this?” into a bounded request with named inputs, a decision, and a proposed checkpoint. It labels the checkpoint as a suggestion because the notes did not establish a deadline.
Connects securely to your tools. The creator never sees your data.
About this skill
Clear Ask converts a fuzzy request, thread, meeting note, or draft into a direct ask someone can understand and act on. It identifies the audience, owner, timing, decision needed, and missing context before a message is sent.
Use it when a request is rambling, an action is implied but not assigned, or a deadline is unclear. The skill separates known facts from assumptions, flags ambiguity, and prefers the smallest useful ask. It can work with Slack or email drafts, meeting notes, project context, and pasted workplace material.
Best for managers, project leads, operators, and anyone trying to reduce meeting churn. It stays in draft mode: it does not send the message or mutate a project system unless explicitly asked.
