I have to know what it is to translate it, so I searched and got this:

[What's a frame challenge?](https://rpg.meta.stackexchange.com/questions/6842/whats-a-frame-challenge)

> A frame challenge is where an author answers a question in a wholly different way the querent never asked for, or potentially expressly forbade, but in a way the author feels will actually solve the problem.

A direct translation of "frame challenge" is 框架挑戰, which is quite understandable, instead of answering the question straight, you challenge the premise of the question itself

> “Frame challenge” is Stack Exchange jargon

"Frame challenge" is not a familiar term for the general public. Only the regular users of this site know that "Frame" refers to the structure of a question. you may have to provide a translation in layman's terms, for example, "挑戰問題本身的另類答案" (Alternative answers that challenge the question itself)

Example:

[Q: How do you specify past tense for 是?](https://chinese.stackexchange.com/questions/22011/how-do-you-specify-past-tense-for-%E6%98%AF)

A: "There's no need"
