Timing

A decision-only mode: watch the discovery beat, then choose - bridge now, or keep digging. Nothing to compose.

01The mechanic

One call on the screen: is this the moment?

You are not writing the next question. You are not phrasing the bridge. You only decide whether the moment to move has arrived.

In this mode

Decision / multiple choice - timing only

Pick bridge now or dig further. The entire cognitive budget sits on that single judgement.

Asked here

  • Watch the discovery beat
  • Decide: bridge now or keep digging
  • Make that call without composing the line

Not asked here

  • Compose discovery questions
  • Phrase the solution bridge
  • Run objection handling or close
02Why strip everything else

Both failure directions are timing

Bridge too early and the solution lands cold. Dig too long and patience dies. Other modes assume you got this right - Timing trains it alone.

Wrong call: too early

Bridge before the weight lands

The mode scores that as a miss - without also grading how well you phrased the pitch.

Wrong call: too late

Question after question

Same mechanic, opposite error. The diagnostic stays on timing - not on question quality.

Why decision-only

One skill. One decision. Full attention.

Discovery climbs the core ladder for how to dig and how to bridge. Timing sits beside that ladder so the when is not smuggled in as an assumption.

Timing is the when - not the how.

The Discovery skill page covers why discovery matters. The core ladder covers how to dig and bridge.
