The Ask workflow acts as an inline mentor — it breaks down complex logic step by step, right where you're working.

What Ask is for

  • Understanding a confusing function or block of code
  • Learning why something works, not just that it works
  • Getting a step-by-step explanation without leaving the IDE

How to use it

  1. Open the Ask workflow next to the code you're looking at.
  2. Ask about the logic you want explained.
  3. Follow the step-by-step breakdown.

Ask across the other workflows

Ask pairs well with every other workflow — explain a Plan, clarify an Agent change, walk through a Team data flow, or understand a Debug fix.
