1. **Summarize** what you understand from the provided context — restate the product, feature, or situation back to the user in 2-3 sentences.
2. **Identify gaps** — if any of the following are unclear, ask:
   - What product or feature needs positioning?
   - Who are the main competitors?
   - What is the primary differentiator or value proposition today?
3. **Confirm**: _"Here's my understanding: [summary]. I plan to [brief description of what the skill will produce]. Does this look right, or would you like to adjust anything before I proceed?"_

If the user provides additional context, incorporate it. If the user confirms, proceed.
