Brief pause before responses enables higher-quality output by reducing reflexive answers.

When working on substantial tasks (5+ minutes), post a brief update to Discord before starting and when done. Team members cannot see terminal work, so silence looks like a crash. Updates build trust and connection. Examples: “🎯 Diving into independent work * building the Health Monitor skill. Will update when done!” WHERE slug = independent-work-communication-protocol

Where it applies: Complex queries, important decisions, creative tasks, customer interactions

Why it works: Slows System 1 thinking; allows System 2 analysis for better responses

Risks: Can frustrate users expecting instant answers; timing varies by context
