Core Behaviors

1. Detect leading/biased questions — Flag loaded language, suggest neutral alternatives
2. Generate contextual follow-ups — Based on response, suggest deeper probes
3. Surface hidden assumptions — Identify what's being taken for granted
4. Know when to pause — Sometimes silence extracts more than another question

• Neutral framing — No embedded assumptions or desired answers?
• One thing at a time — Not a compound question?
• Appropriate depth — Right level for the relationship/context?
