SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Interviewing and aligning on complex plans can be slow and error-prone. This skill relentlessly grills stakeholders to surface hidden assumptions, dependencies, and risks, guiding teams toward a shared understanding.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Relentless questioning that maps the design tree and resolves decision dependencies.
  • One-question-at-a-time cadence that maintains focus and momentum.
  • Codebase-aware questioning: when relevant, explores the repository to verify constraints and context.
  • Outputs clear recommended answers after each decision step.
  • Use cases include design reviews, architecture alignment, plan validation, and risk assessment.

Quick Start

Walk me through your plan and I will grill you on every decision point until we reach a shared understanding.

FAQPage Schema
How do I surface hidden assumptions during a design review?

To surface hidden assumptions in a design review, you can use a relentless interrogation approach that asks stakeholders one question at a time. This method maps the decision tree, verifies codebase constraints, and outputs recommended answers to resolve dependencies.

What is the best way to validate architecture decisions with stakeholders?

Validating architecture decisions is best achieved through a one-question-at-a-time interrogation process that maps the decision tree and explores the codebase. This guided interaction surfaces risks and aligns stakeholders on recommended answers for each step.

How do I conduct a plan validation interview step by step?

To conduct a plan validation interview, walk through your plan and grill stakeholders on every decision point one question at a time. Explore the codebase to verify constraints and output recommended answers after resolving each decision branch.

Can I use a decision tree approach to align stakeholders on complex plans?

Yes, you can use a decision tree approach to align stakeholders by relentlessly interrogating each plan branch one question at a time. This resolves dependencies step-by-step, explores codebase constraints, and outputs recommended answers to reach shared understanding.

When should I not use a one-question-at-a-time grilling approach for plan validation?

You should avoid a one-question-at-a-time grilling approach for simple plans with few decision branches. This relentless interrogation cadence is designed for complex design reviews and architecture alignment where deep dependency mapping is required.
