interrogation

Structured interviews use a one-question-at-a-time cadence to control scope, generating evidence-backed prompts and immediately patching target artifacts when answers change state. This approach guides mode selection and maintains a formal decision trace for traceable outcomes.

Running discovery and readiness assessments requires mode-driven workflows with clear applicability signals and exit criteria. A formal output contract maintains a decision trace, while evidence baselining ensures each question draws from observed data and explicit uncertainties.

Programmable interview modes support defined applicability signals and question fields for domain-specific planning reviews. A mode-extension contract enforces consistent behavior, allowing you to plug in custom modes while guiding artifact mutation and exit criteria.

Start a one-question interview session by selecting a mode, then ask a single evidence-backed question. After receiving the answer, synchronize artifacts by immediately applying patches that reflect the changed state, ensuring explicit exit criteria are tracked throughout.

Mode extension contracts explicitly support custom interview workflows by enforcing programmable modes with defined applicability signals and question fields. This ensures mode selection remains consistent while artifact mutation and evidence baselining follow the formal output contract.

One-question interview cadence should be avoided when rapid, unstructured data collection is needed without artifact synchronization or decision tracing. If your workflow bypasses evidence baselining, mode selection, or formal output contracts, this structured approach adds unnecessary overhead.
