Orca Ask

This file is a discovery stub, not the usage guide. The full, version-matched Orca ask reference is served by the orca binary itself — kept out of this file on purpose so it can never drift from the binary that will actually run your commands.

Engage orca ask whenever you need a genuine human decision you cannot determine by reading code, config, or tests — not for permission to proceed, and not the same as orca orchestration ask, which is worker-to-coordinator agent messaging inside an orchestration run (see the orchestration skill for that). Triggers include "orca ask", "ask the user", "ask a question and wait for the answer", or needing the user to choose between options, confirm a decision, or supply a non-secret value.
