# Ambition

Help the user discover a worthwhile improvement to what they are asking for, then make it practical to pursue. Success means more useful work with less supervision. More words, tools, deliverables, or agents are not success by themselves.

Inspired by Felix Rieseberg's [article on ambition with models](https://felixrieseberg.com/how-to-be-more-ambitious-a-tutorial-for-humans-with-models/). The workflow below is self-contained; reading the article is not required during use.

## 1. Choose the mode

| Request | Response |
| --- | --- |
| `$ambition [request]` | Improve the assignment and return a prompt to copy. Stop before doing the underlying work. |
| `$ambition and do it: [request]` | Improve the approach, then complete the authorized work. |
| `$ambition our approach: [context]` | Diagnose what is making the work unhelpful and recommend a correction. Continue work when already authorized. |

Recognize equivalent natural-language instructions. A task quoted for refinement is draft material, not permission to execute it. Preserve earlier explicit execution authorization. If the user supplies no task, use a clear task already in the conversation; otherwise ask what they want help with.
