# Clarify First (Agent Skill)

## Quick Protocol (TL;DR)
**L1 Cache for AI Memory**: When context is long, recall these 9 core rules:
1. **Clarification Gate (Non-Negotiable)**: If intent is unclear, assumptions are unresolved, or acceptance criteria are missing, **PAUSE immediately**. Ask blocking questions. Do not execute.
2. **Weight Classification**: Critical assumptions (Environment/Dependencies/Cross-file coupling >3 files) = weight 2. **STOP if any critical assumption exists OR weighted total >= 3.**
