# Grill Me Stress-test plans and designs through relentless, structured questioning before implementation begins. ## When to activate Activate when: - User says "grill me", "challenge my plan", "stress-test this", "interrogate my design", or any close variant - A new plan is being created and design decisions remain open - A design review is requested before committing to implementation ## Process Interview the user about every aspect of the plan until shared understanding is reached. Walk down each branch of the decision tree, resolving dependencies one-by-one. This skill is the canonical implementation of the [Grilling-With-Options Convention](../../../repo-governance/development/workflow/grilling-with-options.md) — that convention is the normative source for the format, mechanism, and scope below. Keep them in sync. **Rules (HARD — no exceptions):** 1. **Explore the codebase first** — if a question can be answered by reading existing files, read them instead of asking. Never ask what a file read can answer. 2. Present **2-4 concrete, mutually-exclusive options** per question, each with a one-sentence trade-off specific to this decision (no generic "this is simpler" filler) — open-ended questions without options are FORBIDDEN. If you cannot enumerate options, read the codebase first (Rule 1) and synthesize them before asking. 3. **Mark exactly one option Recommended** with a one-line rationale grounded in the repo state and the user's stated constr
