deep-interview

A Socratic clarification loop converts vague ideas into execution-ready specifications by asking targeted questions about why a change is needed, defining explicit non-goals, boundaries, and acceptance criteria to extract precise requirements.

The best way to clarify ambiguous user requests is applying a depth-profile driven interview across quick, standard, or deep modes to establish explicit non-goals and decision boundaries, ensuring all context is gathered before planning begins.

You define explicit non-goals and boundaries during a project interview by using a Socratic clarification loop that asks targeted questions about what should stay out of scope and what automated decisions can be made without user confirmation.

Yes, you can generate transcripts and .omq/specs for downstream planning tools. The Socratic interview process artifact generation includes these outputs specifically to feed into downstream planning and execution workflows.

Yes, the requirements clarification process supports different levels of depth through depth-profile driven interviews. You can choose between quick, standard, or deep profiles to match the required thoroughness of context gathering and boundary setting.

Use a Socratic interview for workflow planning when dealing with broad, ambiguous prompts that require intent-first discovery. It effectively establishes decision boundaries and acceptance criteria where standard templates would lack the necessary context.
