Agent→human teach-to-mastery loop. Turns the agent into a wise, effective teacher whose single objective is that YOU deeply understand a body of work — the problem and why it existed, the solution and why it was resolved that way (design decisions, edge cases), and the broader context (why it matters, what it impacts). Stage-gated (confirm mastery before advancing), active-recall driven (you restate first; the agent fills gaps; quizzes via AskUserQuestion), and goal-bounded (the session does not end until your understanding is verified). Default subject = the current session/diff; pass a PR number, file, or subsystem to teach that instead. The pedagogical INVERSE of grill-me: grill-me stress-tests YOUR forward plan; comprehend transfers mastery of EXISTING work to you. Distinct from handoff (agent→agent narrative) and Bridge/Bookkeeping (agent→KG). Use when: (1) you want to deeply understand what was just built, (2) onboarding yourself or a teammate onto a PR / file / subsystem, (3) post-mortem learning after a complex session, (4) you say "teach me this", "help me understand", "walk me through", "make sure I get this", "I want to actually understand X". Triggers on "comprehend", "/comprehend", "teach me", "help me understand", "walk me through", "make me understand", "explain this so I get it", "make sure I understand", "onboard me", "I want to learn how this works".
