Workshop Facilitation

This is the canonical pattern for running interactive workshops and guided sessions one question at a time. It gives you three entry modes (guided, context dump, or best guess), shows progress labels like "Context Q3/8", offers quick-select numbered options for answers, and only surfaces recommendations at actual decision points. The multi-turn flow is interruption-safe and handles meta questions without losing state. If you're building any kind of structured session (positioning workshop, discovery sprint, maturity assessment), this is the facilitation backbone to keep it from turning into a wall of questions or skipping steps the user wanted to think through.

Purpose

Provide the canonical facilitation pattern for interactive skills: one step at a time, with clear progress, adaptive recommendations at decision points, and predictable interruption handling.

Input

Nothing required — this skill defines the facilitation protocol other interactive skills follow. Also useful: If invoked standalone, name the session you want facilitated and any context for it; that context carries into the session as answers already given.

Anything supplied with the invocation itself — text after the skill name, a pasted context dump, or an appended ARGUMENTS: line — counts as answers already given. Use it and skip whatever it covers; don't re-ask.

Arriving empty-handed? That works too. When another skill references this protocol, that skill's Input section governs what to provide.

Example invocation: Facilitate a 45-minute retro on our failed beta launch using this protocol.
