"textContent": "That’s really interesting — I like the structured approach you built, especially the idea of controlling how prompts are handled within the flow.\n\nWhat I had in mind is slightly different and more from a product/UX perspective:\n\nInstead of generating a single improved prompt within the response, the idea is to present multiple prompt options _before sending_ , each reflecting a different interpretation or level of detail.\n\nFor example:\n\n * A concise version\n * A more detailed version\n * A structured/task-oriented version\n\n\n\nThe user would then choose the option that best matches their actual intent.\n\nThe key idea is not just improving the prompt, but helping the user realize _what they actually meant to ask_.\n\nIn a way, this creates a small “pause moment” before the system responds — where the system tries to understand the intent, and the user actively confirms it.\nThis adds a sense of transparency, control, and mutual alignment between the user and the system, instead of the system just “guessing” and responding.\n\nYour approach already shows there’s real friction here — which is exactly what made me think about this direction.\n\nCurious — do you think having multiple options instead of a single recommendation would be useful in your setup?",
