Stress-test a plan, design, or architecture through relentless structured interviewing. Produces reasoning artifacts as byproduct — every gap found becomes a [D], [I], or [S] artifact. Triggers: "grill me", "stress test this plan", "poke holes", "challenge my design", "devil's advocate", "what am I missing".

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

# /grill-me

Interview relentlessly until every branch of the decision tree is walked and resolved. The goal is shared understanding — not critique for its own sake, but surfacing the gaps that would bite later.

## Context Loading (Vault Retrieval Gate)

Before grilling, run the retrieval gate to surface prior decisions:

1. Scan `_context.md` Active Reasoning Artifacts table for `[D]` entries matching the domain
2. Glob `Decisions/*{topic}*` for full artifact files
3. If prior decision found → use as grilling context: "You decided X on {date}. Has the invalidation trigger fired?"
4. Load domain-relevant vault knowledge:
   - **Technical** → Glob `{vault_path}/Knowledge/AI*`, `Knowledge/MOC — *` if exists
   - **Business** → Glob `{vault_path}/Knowledge/Business*`
5. Use matched notes + prior decisions as grilling ammunition

## Before You Start

1. Read the plan/design the user is referring to (file, conversation context, or ask them to state it)
2. If a codebase exists, explore it first — don't ask questions you could answer by reading code

## Grilling Protocol

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add aiyo28/memento-os/grill-me@sha256:bf6b718ddebee100

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, 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.
