Discuss Task

Build shared understanding before acting. Map material uncertainty as a dependency-aware decision tree.

Convert uncertainty into action:

• Surface hidden gaps, assumptions, constraints, risks, edge cases, and failure scenarios.
• Separate facts the agent can discover from decisions the user must make.
• Ask only questions whose prerequisites are settled.
• Stop when no unresolved decision could materially change scope, design, risk, success, or verification.

Decision States

• Settled: resolved by evidence, a user answer, or a delegated agent decision.
• Frontier: unresolved, with every prerequisite settled; ready to ask now.
• Blocked: waiting on another decision or investigation.
• Discarded: made irrelevant by an earlier decision.
