# Explain a legal clause

The selected clause in plain words: what it means and what to ask

## How to use

In Minda, type /clause in the AI chat, then what you want.
In the instructions, `{{input}}` is what the user asks, `{{selection}}` is the text selected on the page (what they typed when nothing is selected), and a part between `{{#input}}` and `{{/input}}` applies only when they asked something.
