# Grilling ## Overview Map the work as a decision tree, resolve facts from evidence, and let the user settle every decision on the currently unblocked frontier. Facts are the agent's job; decisions are the user's. ## Ground Before Asking Before building the decision tree: - Inspect repository facts and current state: relevant files, tests, recent history, and existing decisions. - Read relevant documentation. Use primary-source external documentation when outside facts affect the choice. - If `docs/learnings/README.md` exists, read the index and open only the notes relevant to this decision. - Resolve discoverable facts with files and tools. State any evidence gap or uncertainty; do not turn a factual lookup into a user question. This workflow is read-only unless the user separately authorizes a write. Do not create, write, or update a glossary or ADR automatically. ## Work the Decision Frontier 1. Map the plan, decision, design, or idea as a tree. Each decision branches into decisions that depend on it. 2. Mark prerequisites. The frontier is the entire currently unblocked set of independent decisions that can be answered without guessing about another open decision. 3. Ask the whole currently unblocked frontier in one numbered round. For each numbered question, give a recommended answer and the evidence, trade-off, or reason behind it. 4. Wait for the user's answers. Human judgment owns the decisions; neither the agent nor a vote substitutes
