What is a grilling session for plans and designs?▼

A grilling session is an adversarial interview where your proposal is questioned aggressively to reveal gaps, contradictions, and unexamined assumptions. It simulates the scrutiny a design would face in a tough review meeting.

Can I use this for product plans as well as technical designs?▼

Yes. The skill targets both plans and designs, so it works for product proposals, architecture documents, and project plans alike. Any artifact with assumptions can be interrogated.

When should I not use an adversarial review session?▼

Avoid it when the plan is still a rough brainstorm, since premature grilling can shut down early ideation. It works best once a concrete proposal exists that is ready for scrutiny.
