SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill resolves ambiguous plans and untested assumptions by forcing detailed back-and-forth until you and the user share a concrete, decision-tree-complete understanding.

Core Features & Use Cases

Relentless interview about a plan/design: interrogates every aspect until dependencies between decisions are clarified.
Branch-by-branch decision-tree resolution: walks through the design tree, resolving interdependent choices one-by-one.
Codebase-aware answering: when a question can be answered by exploring the codebase, it prioritizes codebase exploration over guesswork.
Single-question pacing: asks questions one at a time to keep the reasoning focused and cumulative.

Quick Start

Tell the AI: "Grill me on my plan to launch this feature, one question at a time, until we reach shared understanding and resolve all key dependencies."

FAQPage Schema

How do I stress-test a product plan to clarify dependencies and untested assumptions?▼

To stress-test a product plan, you can use a structured interview process that interrogates every aspect of your design until dependencies are clarified. This forces a detailed back-and-forth to reach a shared, decision-tree-complete understanding.

What is the best way to conduct a design critique for architecture planning?▼

The best way to conduct a design critique for architecture planning is through branch-by-branch decision-tree resolution. This method walks through the design tree, resolving interdependent choices one-by-one to clarify all architectural dependencies.

Can I use codebase exploration to answer dependency analysis questions during a plan review?▼

Yes, you can use codebase exploration to answer dependency analysis questions during a plan review. When a question can be answered by the codebase, the system prioritizes exploring the codebase over guesswork to ensure accurate dependency mapping.

How do I resolve ambiguous requirements before execution?▼

You can resolve ambiguous requirements by forcing a structured, single-question pacing interview that builds cumulative reasoning. This approach asks questions one at a time to keep reasoning focused until shared understanding is achieved.

When should I not use an iterative interview approach for decision making?▼

You should not use an iterative interview approach for decision making if your plan already has a decision-tree-complete understanding with fully clarified dependencies. It is specifically designed for resolving ambiguous plans and untested assumptions before execution.
