Use this when: you want a plan stress-tested by interview

Problem it solves — A plan you only roughly have ships with its gaps intact. This interviews you relentlessly — one recommended-answer question at a time, walking every branch of the decision tree — until the design is hardened and the unknowns are gone.

Grill me

Pressure-test a plan the user already roughly holds, by relentless collaborative interview.

Read docs/agents/grilling.md first and run that protocol exactly — it is the whole procedure (one question at a time, a recommended answer per question, explore-instead-of-ask, pinned non-goals, lens-deck framings where blast radius warrants). This skill adds nothing on top; it is the plain entry point.

Where it sits

  • Not brainstorm — that captures a fuzzy idea and pins it into a spec behind a hard gate; grill-me pressure-tests a plan you already roughly hold.
  • Not check-reasoning — that's a blind, adversarial pass/fail gate (a subagent that never saw your reasoning); grill-me is a collaborative interview that recommends answers as it goes.
  • Domain/terminology-heavy plan? Use grill-with-docs — the same protocol layered with glossary sharpening and gated CONTEXT.md / ADR proposals.
