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 stress-tests a plan before building by relentlessly interviewing the user about every aspect of it. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Systematic Plan Interrogation: Walks down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one by one. - One Question at a Time: Asks a single question per turn with a recommended answer, waiting for feedback before continuing. - Codebase-Grounded Answers: Explores the codebase directly when a question can be answered by investigation rather than asking the user. - Use Case: Before implementing a new API architecture, activate this Skill to be interviewed about authentication, error handling, data models, and deployment until every decision is resolved. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to grill you on your plan or design before you start building it.

FAQPage Schema
How do I stress-test a plan before building it?▼

Use the grilling skill to be interviewed about every aspect of your plan. It walks down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one by one until you reach a shared understanding.

How does the grilling interview process work?▼

The skill asks questions one at a time, providing a recommended answer for each and waiting for your feedback before continuing. Asking multiple questions at once is avoided to prevent confusion.

When should I use plan grilling instead of just starting to code?▼

Use it when a plan has unresolved design decisions, unclear dependencies, or unexplored branches. It is most valuable before building, when changing decisions is still cheap.

Does the grilling skill answer questions from the codebase?▼

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

What are the limitations of interview-based plan review?▼

The interview only surfaces issues through questioning and codebase exploration; it does not execute or validate the plan. Quality depends on your engagement with each question and the accuracy of recommended answers.
