Ask User Question
Use this MCP tool to ask users questions and get their responses. This is the ONLY way to communicate with the user - they cannot see CLI/terminal output.
Critical Rule
The user CANNOT see your text output or CLI prompts!
If you write "Let me ask you..." and then just output text - THE USER WILL NOT SEE IT. You MUST call this tool to display a modal in the UI.
When to Use
- Clarifying questions before starting ambiguous tasks
- Asking user preferences (e.g., "How would you like files organized?")
- Confirming actions before executing (especially destructive/irreversible ones)
- Getting approval for sensitive actions (financial, messaging, deletion, etc.)
- Any situation where you need user input to proceed
