Core interviewing primitive that maps decisions into a branching design tree, working the frontier one round of questions at a time. Reusable discipline powering grill-me, grill-with-docs, triage, and wayfinder.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

Interview the user relentlessly until you reach a shared understanding. Map this as a **design tree**: every decision branches into the decisions that hang off it.

Work the tree in **rounds**. The **frontier** is every decision whose prerequisites are already settled: the questions you can ask _now_ without guessing at answers you haven't heard yet. Ask the whole frontier in one round: number each question and give your recommended answer. Then wait for the user's answers before the next round.

Format a round like so:

```
[?] **Q1** - **<question title>**: <question body, might be multiple paragraphs, including multiple choices>

--> <your recommended answer>

---

[?] **Q2** - **<question title>**: <question body, might be multiple paragraphs, including multiple choices>

--> <your recommended answer>
```

Word each question so "yes" accepts your recommended answer.
…

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add saifallah-star/aegis/grilling@sha256:4109838a7ea61baf

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.12926fc, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
