What
The prototype skill now makes the model choose between building immediately and asking first, rather than guessing.
Details
- Build with stated assumptions when the request names a thing and its core interaction.
- Ask two to four pointed questions and wait when the request only names an outcome.
- Extra polish passes and browser or test harnesses are forbidden.
- If the Artifact tool is unavailable, the model must not hunt for alternative hosting.

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
