SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Consequential plans, designs, and decisions often rest on hidden assumptions that only surface after implementation begins. This Skill interrogates unresolved decisions through structured rounds of questions, separating facts from assumptions so risks and tradeoffs become visible before action. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Decision-Tree Interviewing: Builds a decision tree from your stated objective and asks only questions whose prerequisites are already resolved, recomputing the frontier after each round. - Evidence-First Resolution: Resolves factual questions from repository state, files, tools, or accepted records instead of making you answer what the environment can answer, while keeping owner decisions with the owner. - Bounded Recommendations: Provides a concise recommended answer and material tradeoff per question when evidence supports one, then stops before execution. - Use Case: Before committing to a new system architecture, run a grilling session to expose contradictions with existing repository state, label unresolvable assumptions as UNKNOWN, and confirm shared understanding before routing to planning or design work. ## Quick Start Grill my proposed migration plan for moving the billing service to a new database before I start implementation.

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

Use decision-tree interviewing that builds a tree from your stated objective and asks only questions whose prerequisites are already resolved. Each round surfaces assumptions, contradictions, and tradeoffs, and the session ends when the decision frontier is empty or remaining branches are explicitly deferred.

What is a decision frontier in structured interviewing?▼

A decision frontier is the set of questions whose prerequisite decisions are already resolved, making them answerable right now. The frontier is recomputed after every round so you never face a question whose answer depends on an unresolved earlier decision.

Can the interview answer factual questions automatically?▼

Yes. When a question depends on a fact establishable from repository state, files, connected tools, runtime evidence, or accepted project records, that fact is established first with its source and uncertainty preserved. You are only asked questions that genuinely require owner judgment.

When should I not use decision-tree interviewing?▼

Avoid it when a consequential fact cannot be established and guessing would materially change the decision, or when the interview is being used to manufacture agreement rather than expose choices. It also stops if implementation begins before shared understanding is confirmed.

Does the grilling session execute the decision afterward?▼

No. The interview never converts into execution authority. After completion it routes to planning, design, or documentation skills, and the human must confirm the resulting shared understanding before any implementation begins.
