A three-line, user-invoked skill in in-progress/. Fire it when the agent's last message doesn't land; it re-pitches that message with the missing context, in ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English, using the ubiquitous language from CONTEXT.md. The name is the mechanism. Concision skills fail by growing, so this one is a single precise leading word and nothing else. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Add wait-what to in-progress/ — a fire extinguisher for model verbosity. Fire it the moment a message doesn't land, and the agent re-pitches that message: a little context, ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English, and the ubiquitous language from your CONTEXT.md. User-invoked, three lines long.
The mechanism is the name. Concision skills fail by growing — a 400-line skill still leaves the model verbose — so this one is a single precise leading word and nothing else. It also reuses the leading words already in your global CLAUDE.md, so the skill, CLAUDE.md and every CONTEXT.md reach for the same tokens.
It's the extinguisher, not the sprinkler. The cure for jargon is a shared language built upfront with /grill-with-docs; this is the in-the-moment corrective for when you don't have one yet.
