SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Plans and designs often contain hidden assumptions and unresolved questions that surface too late. This Skill runs a relentless interview session that pressure-tests a plan or design while capturing the outcomes as durable documentation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Structured Grilling Session: Runs a /grilling interview that challenges assumptions and exposes gaps in a plan or design. - Documentation as Output: Creates Architecture Decision Records (ADRs) and a glossary as the interview progresses. - Domain Modeling Integration: Uses the /domain-modeling skill to ground the discussion in a shared vocabulary. - Use Case: Before implementing a new feature, run this Skill to interrogate the design, record each decision as an ADR, and build a glossary of domain terms for the team. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to run a grilling session on your current plan or design so it can challenge assumptions and produce ADRs and a glossary.

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

Run a grilling session that interviews you about the plan, challenging assumptions and exposing gaps. This Skill conducts that interview and records the outcomes as ADRs and a glossary as you go.

How to create ADRs during design discussions?

This Skill generates Architecture Decision Records automatically as the grilling interview progresses. Each decision surfaced during the session is captured as an ADR alongside a growing domain glossary.

What is a grilling session for engineering plans?

A grilling session is a relentless question-and-answer interview that pressure-tests a plan or design. It forces explicit answers about assumptions, trade-offs, and domain terminology before implementation begins.

Does this skill work without the domain-modeling skill?

No, it explicitly delegates to the /domain-modeling skill as part of the grilling session. Both skills must be available in the environment for the workflow to run as documented.

When should I not use a grilling interview for planning?

Avoid it for trivial or well-understood tasks where the overhead of producing ADRs and a glossary adds no value. It is best suited to plans with meaningful ambiguity or architectural impact.
