Interview the user relentlessly about a plan, design, or idea until reaching shared understanding, resolving each branch of the decision tree. Use when the user wants to stress-test a plan, validate an idea, get grilled on their design, or says "grill me".

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 about every aspect of their plan, design, or idea until you reach
a shared understanding. Walk down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between
decisions one by one.

- One question at a time, each with your recommended answer, worded so that "yes" accepts it, via
  `explain-in-simple-language` when available.
- Facts are yours to find (codebase, docs, tool output): look them up, never ask. Decisions are
  the user's: put each one to them and wait.

Done when no branch is open and nothing is silently assumed. Then print the settled decisions as a
short list (decision, chosen answer, one-line why) the user can paste into the plan, ticket or
doc, and stop: act on it only after the user confirms.

Read the whole file at its exact version.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add eai-org/agent-toolkit/grill-me@sha256:6766e4268ceee009

The line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2, 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.
