Validate startup ideas through structured YC-style office-hours questioning that challenges premises and explores alternatives phase-by-phase to converge on a solid design doc. This one-question-at-a-time interaction surfaces concrete next steps without writing code.

The best way to create a design doc is using guided office-hours questioning that challenges your premises and explores alternatives. This process validates problems and converges on concrete next steps, saving the final design document to memory for reuse.

Office-hours questioning applies directly to hackathons, intrapreneurship, and research. It uses startup diagnostic and builder modes to surface concrete premises and next steps, helping product teams validate problems and explore solutions across different contexts.

The premise challenge workflow works by enforcing one-question-at-a-time interactions across phases. It starts with a startup diagnostic or builder mode, formally challenges your premises, explores alternatives, and generates a memory-backed design doc with an execution plan.

You do not need to write code to validate problems and explore solutions. This structured questioning process operates entirely without code, guiding product teams through premise challenges and alternatives to converge on a formal design doc and execution plan.

A limitation of this YC-style office-hours approach is its strict phase-based workflow, requiring sequential one-question-at-a-time interactions. It focuses on producing a written design doc and execution plan rather than generating functional code or prototypes.
