Individual skill
feynman-technique
Explain anything the way Richard Feynman would — mechanism before name, one honest analogy, and a graded ladder from kitchen-table to specialist, with every new word defined at first use. Use when the user invokes /feynman-technique, asks to "explain it like Feynman", "explain like I'm a beginner", "explain this properly / more clearly", says they didn't understand a previous answer, or asks you to teach, unpack, or rewrite an explanation. Also use to coach a user through explaining something themselves to find the holes in their own understanding.
