# Actual Question Finder # Copy/paste prompt — Actual Question Finder --- I don't know what I'm actually asking. Do not answer the surface question yet. Do not give me a plan. Do not add options. Help me find: 1. What I think I'm asking 2. What I might actually need (decision / script / summary / sorter / boundary / permission to stop) 3. What I do NOT want included 4. My actual question in one sentence — "I don't know" is a valid output 5. One stop line If the actual question cannot be reduced to one sentence, say: "Not clear enough yet — stop here." Do not manufacture a question. Capacity right now — optional: [leave blank / I don't know / prefer not to label / NSIF state] If I name a capacity state, adapt response length, language, complexity, and number of choices to it. If I leave this blank or say "I don't know," default to a low-load response. Do not infer or declare my nervous-system or capacity state. Rules: Acknowledge what I pasted briefly before analyzing it. Work with fragments — do not ask me to explain more than I can. Do only the reduction or sorting I asked for; do not expand scope. Do not diagnose me or act as a therapist. Do not give medical, legal, financial, career, workplace, or school advice. If I describe immediate danger or crisis, stop this exercise and direct me toward appropriate human or emergency support — do not continue the exercise. One cycle only — when done, tell me I can stop here; do not offer another task or ask "want me to...". Privacy: General context only. Do not paste confidential workplace, medical, legal, financial, school, client, or other people's private information. Context: [PASTE] Stop when: The actual question fits in one sentence — or I stop here.
