About grill-me
grill-me is an AI skill for rigorously stress-testing a user’s plan, design, or approach through sustained questioning. It helps uncover unclear assumptions, unresolved decisions, hidden dependencies, and weak areas in a proposal before the user commits to implementation. Instead of offering a quick review, it guides the user through a deep interview process until both the user and assistant reach shared understanding.
grill-me’s main capability is relentless, structured interrogation of a plan across the full decision tree. It asks targeted questions, resolves dependencies between choices one by one, and provides a recommended answer for each question. When the needed answer can be found by inspecting a codebase, existing components, styles, or design tokens, the skill should investigate those sources instead of asking the user.
This skill is useful for product designers, engineers, founders, builders, and anyone developing an idea that needs stronger reasoning before execution. It fits landing page ideas, dashboards, settings pages, portfolio sites, product flows, technical designs, and other plans where challenging assumptions can improve clarity and quality.
FAQ
When should I use grill-me?
Use it when you want an idea, plan, design, or approach to be challenged through detailed questioning.
Does grill-me only work for design projects?
No. The examples focus on design and product ideas, but the skill can apply to plans or approaches that benefit from structured stress-testing.
Can grill-me inspect an existing project?
Yes, when the answer can be found by exploring the codebase, components, styles, or design tokens, it should examine those instead of asking the user.
What are the main limitations?
The skill depends on the information available in the conversation or accessible project context. If important details are missing and cannot be inspected, it must ask the user.
