SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Interactively explore a user's idea through structured questioning until all dimensions are covered. Produces a context summary and optionally detailed specifications. Use when the user has an idea they want to flesh out.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Interactive interview flow that guides the user through key dimensions (What, Why, Who, Scope, Context, Constraints, Dependencies, Success criteria, Risks, Open questions).
  • Enforces per-turn, one-question-at-a-time interaction and summarizes progress to confirm understanding.
  • Outputs a Context Summary and, if requested, a detailed specification based on gathered inputs.

Quick Start

Describe your idea in one sentence and I will guide you through a structured, dimensional interview.

FAQPage Schema
How do I conduct requirements elicitation for early-stage product discovery?

Requirements elicitation for product discovery involves asking targeted questions to explore an idea across essential dimensions like scope, constraints, and success criteria. This structured interviewing approach ensures all critical context is captured to produce detailed specifications.

What is the best way to flesh out a rough product idea through structured questioning?

Structured questioning clarifies a rough product idea by guiding you through a turn-based interview covering dimensions like what, why, and risks. This interactive flow enforces a one-question-at-a-time policy to systematically extract and summarize your contextual inputs.

Can I use an interactive interview flow to generate a context summary for my project?

Yes, an interactive interview flow can generate a context summary by systematically asking targeted questions about your project's dependencies and open questions. It maintains progress across dimensions and summarizes inputs to confirm understanding before outputting the final context summary.

How do I gather structured information across dimensions like scope and constraints during idea exploration?

To gather structured information across dimensions during idea exploration, engage in a one-on-one questioning loop that systematically covers scope, constraints, and context. This method ensures comprehensive coverage by maintaining progress and validating understanding through per-turn summaries.

Does structured requirements discovery work for one-on-one conversations without prior setup?

Structured requirements discovery works effectively in one-on-one conversations with no prior setup required. You simply describe your idea in one sentence to initiate a guided interview that explores all essential dimensions and outputs a detailed specification.

What are the limitations of using a turn-based questioning loop for idea exploration?

A limitation of a turn-based questioning loop for idea exploration is the strict one-question-at-a-time policy, which enforces a linear pace. While ensuring thorough dimension coverage, this structured approach may feel slower than brainstorming for rapidly capturing high-level concepts.
