SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Plans and designs often contain hidden assumptions, gaps, and unchallenged reasoning that only surface after costly implementation begins. This Skill subjects your plan to a rigorous interview so flaws are found before execution. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Adversarial Interview: Challenges your plan or design with persistent, probing questions instead of passive agreement. - Assumption Surfacing: Forces implicit assumptions, edge cases, and unresolved trade-offs into the open. - Use Case: Before committing to a new system architecture, present your design document and let the interview expose scalability risks, missing failure modes, and unclear ownership boundaries. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to grill you on your current plan or design document and answer each challenge it raises.

FAQPage Schema
How do I stress-test a plan before implementation?

Present your plan or design and request a grilling interview. The Skill asks persistent, adversarial questions that surface hidden assumptions, unresolved trade-offs, and gaps you must answer or address.

What is a design review interview technique?

It is a structured questioning approach where a reviewer challenges each decision in a design rather than passively approving it. This Skill automates that role by relentlessly interrogating your plan until weaknesses emerge.

Can I use this for product specs and architecture documents?

Yes. The interview applies to any articulated plan or design, including product specifications, system architecture, project proposals, and strategy documents. You provide the material and respond to the challenges raised.

When should I not use an adversarial plan review?

Avoid it when the plan is still a rough brainstorm with no concrete decisions to defend, since there is nothing to interrogate yet. It works best once you have a committed direction worth challenging.

Does the interview modify my plan automatically?

No. It only asks questions and exposes weaknesses through dialogue. Revising the plan based on what the interview uncovers remains your responsibility.
