Vault Clarification Interactive Session

Problem/Feature Description

One talk ("Robocoders: Judgment Day") has been processed through vault-ingress. The automated analysis identified rhetoric patterns, humor beats, and blind spots. Now a clarification session is needed to:

1. Clarify surprising patterns (the delayed self-introduction — was it intentional?)
2. Conduct a humor post-mortem (grade each joke, capture spontaneous moments)
3. Probe blind spots (demo engagement, theatrical opening, Q&A room dynamics)
4. Capture speaker infrastructure config (first session — all config fields are empty)
5. Store confirmed intents and mark the session complete

This is the speaker's first clarification session (clarification_sessions_completed: 0), so infrastructure config capture (Step 5B) is required.

Setup

Download the vault state:

curl -sLO https://github.com/jbaruch/speaker-toolkit/raw/main/eval-resources/scenario-clarification-session/tracking-database.json
curl -sLO https://github.com/jbaruch/speaker-toolkit/raw/main/eval-resources/scenario-clarification-session/rhetoric-style-summary.md

Task

Run a clarification session on the processed talk. The session must cover all five steps from the vault-clarification skill:

Step 1: Rhetoric Clarification

• The analysis flagged delayed_self_introduction as surprising. Ask the speaker whether this is deliberate, accidental, or context-dependent.
• Ask ONE question at a time, not a batch.

Step 2: Blind Spot Probing

• For the demo section (slides 14-16): ask about audience engagement during live coding
• For the theatrical opening (slides 1-2): ask about any stage effects tied to "Judgment Day"
• For the Q&A section (slides 30-31): ask about room dynamics when speaker moved from mic

Step 3: Humor Post-Mortem

• Walk through each of the 4 identified humor beats and ask if they landed
• Grade each with: hit, nod, flat, or spontaneous_hit
• Specifically probe the transcript gap after slide 15 — was there an off-script moment?
• Ask about spontaneous humor not captured in the transcript
• For any spontaneous humor that landed well, recommend whether to promote it to a planned beat

Step 4: Infrastructure Config Capture

Since clarification_sessions_completed is 0, ask for all empty config fields:

• speaker_name, speaker_handle, speaker_website
• shownotes_url_pattern, shownotes_slug_convention
• template_pptx_path, presentation_file_convention
• publishing_process details (export format, QR code settings, shortener)

Step 5: Mark Complete

• Increment clarification_sessions_completed to 1
• Store all confirmed intents in confirmed_intents array

Output Specification

Produce an updated tracking-database.json with:

• config.clarification_sessions_completed incremented to 1
• All infrastructure config fields populated from speaker responses
• confirmed_intents array with at least 1 entry (the delayed intro pattern)
• Each talk entry updated with humor_postmortem (grades per beat) and blind_spot_observations

Also produce an updated rhetoric-style-summary.md incorporating the new findings from the clarification session.
