SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Plans and designs often contain silently assumed decisions that surface as costly surprises later. This Skill runs a structured interview that maps every decision as a design tree and asks all currently answerable questions in batched rounds, so nothing is left unexamined before work begins. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Design tree mapping: Models every decision as a branch, tracking which questions are blocked by unsettled prerequisites. - Frontier-based rounds: Asks the entire answerable frontier in one numbered round with recommended answers, then recomputes the frontier after each reply. - Autonomous fact-finding: Dispatches sub-agents to look up facts from the filesystem or tools instead of asking the user for anything discoverable. - Use Case: Before implementing a new feature, run the interview to surface every open design decision — data model, API shape, error handling — answering them round by round until the frontier is empty and the plan is fully specified. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to grill you on your plan or design until every decision is settled and nothing is silently assumed.

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

Run a frontier-based interview that maps your plan as a design tree and asks every currently answerable decision in numbered rounds. Each round of answers unblocks dependent questions until no assumptions remain.

What is a frontier question in design planning?

A frontier question is a decision whose prerequisites are already settled, so it can be asked now without guessing. Questions depending on still-open answers are deferred to later rounds.

Can the interview look up facts instead of asking me?

Yes. When a question needs a fact from the filesystem or tools, a sub-agent is dispatched to find it. Only downstream questions wait for the result; the rest of the frontier is asked immediately.

How many questions are asked per round?

The entire frontier is asked in one round. Where a structured question tool caps calls at four questions, the frontier splits across consecutive calls or rolls overflow into the next round.

When does the interview session end?

The session ends when the frontier is empty, meaning every branch of the design tree has been visited. No action is taken until you confirm a shared understanding has been reached.
