Grill Me

> Derived from Matt Pocock's grill-me (MIT). Matt's interview discipline preserved verbatim. Additions: extraction + question + session tools + references + cs- wrapper (see references/companion_tooling.md).

Interview me relentlessly about every aspect of this plan until we reach a shared understanding. Walk down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one-by-one. For each question, provide your recommended answer.

Ask the questions one at a time.

If a question can be answered by exploring the codebase, explore the codebase instead.

Rules (preserved + amplified)

1. One question per turn. Never bundle.
2. Provide a recommended answer with each question. Defaulting to "what do you think?" is lazy.
3. Explore the codebase before asking. If grep / Read resolves it, do that first. Saves a turn.
4. Walk the tree depth-first. Finish a branch before opening another.
5. Track dependencies. If decision B depends on decision A, ask A first.

Workflow

1. User provides a plan or design (or path to one).
2. Run scripts/decision_tree_extractor.py to extract branches.
3. Run scripts/question_generator.py to produce the question list with recommendations.
4. Start a session: scripts/grill_session_tracker.py --action start.
5. Walk the tree, one question at a time, recording answers in the session.
6. When all branches resolved: report "shared understanding reached" + the locked-in decisions.

Output Pattern

Per question turn:

Q[i]/[total]: [question]
Recommended answer: [your call + 1-sentence rationale]

(Or: I explored the codebase and found [evidence]. Confirm?)

Tooling

See references/companion_tooling.md. Tools: extractor + generator + tracker. Agent: cs-grill-master. Command: /cs:grill-me.
