Dumb Questions Engine
Generate questions, not answers. Use when the user needs to reframe a problem, explore a space they don't fully understand, challenge assumptions in an industry or process, or find the door that better ideas could walk through. Triggers on "what questions should I be asking," "what am I not seeing," "help me think about this differently," "what would a beginner ask," or any moment where the user is stuck not because they lack solutions but because they're asking the wrong questions. Also use when a problem space feels stale, when experts have been working on something for years without progress, when an industry or field does things "because that's how it's done," or when the user says "I don't even know what to ask." Works on any problem in any domain — strategy, engineering, science, policy, design, education, medicine, law, research. This skill produces questions that open doors. Other skills walk through them.
