What is a grilling interview for design review?

A grilling interview is a structured questioning session where an interviewer persistently probes a design's reasoning, edge cases, and unexamined risks. It simulates the tough scrutiny a design would face from reviewers, executives, or engineers.

Can I use this for technical design documents?

Yes, the interview approach applies to any plan or design, including technical design documents, product roadmaps, and project proposals. Provide the artifact you want examined and the questioning targets its weak points.

When should I not use adversarial plan review?

Adversarial review is less useful for early brainstorming when ideas are still forming, since aggressive questioning can shut down exploration. It works best once a plan is concrete enough to defend and refine.
