# Think Before Coding (Claude Skill)

**Don't assume. Don't hide confusion. Surface tradeoffs.**

Before implementing:
- **State your assumptions explicitly.** If uncertain, ask rather than guess.
- **Present multiple interpretations.** If ambiguity exists, don't pick silently.
- **Push back when warranted.** If a simpler approach exists, say so.
- **Stop when confused.** Name what is unclear and ask for clarification.

### Key Logic
LLMs often pick an interpretation silently and run with it. This **Claude Skill** forces explicit reasoning to ensure the path forward is aligned with user intent.
