SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Plans and designs often contain hidden assumptions, unresolved dependencies, and unexplored branches that only surface during implementation. This Skill systematically interrogates every aspect of a plan until all decision points are resolved and both sides share a complete understanding. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Relentless structured questioning: Walks down each branch of the design decision tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one by one. - Recommended answers: Provides a recommended answer alongside each question so the user can accept, reject, or refine it. - Codebase grounding: Explores the codebase directly to answer questions that can be resolved from existing code instead of asking the user. - Use Case: Before implementing a new feature, ask to be grilled on your design doc so edge cases, trade-offs, and dependency ordering are settled before writing code. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to grill you on your plan or design document, then answer each question one at a time until every decision branch is resolved.

FAQPage Schema
How do I stress-test a design plan with an AI assistant?▼

Ask the assistant to grill you on your plan. It will walk through each branch of the decision tree one question at a time, providing a recommended answer for each, until all dependencies between decisions are resolved.

What does the grill-me skill do?▼

It interviews you relentlessly about every aspect of a plan or design, asking questions one at a time with recommended answers, until both sides reach a shared understanding of all decisions.

Can the assistant answer design questions from my codebase?▼

Yes. When a question can be answered by exploring the codebase, the assistant investigates the code directly instead of asking you, keeping the interview focused on genuinely open decisions.

When should I use plan interrogation instead of writing code directly?▼

Use it before implementation when a design has unresolved trade-offs, unclear dependencies, or untested assumptions. It is less useful for trivial tasks where the design space is already fully understood.

Does the questioning happen all at once or step by step?▼

Questions are asked one at a time. Each answer informs the next question, so the interview adapts as decisions are resolved and dependencies between choices become clear.
