Socratic deep interview with mathematical ambiguity gating. Activate when user says: deep interview, interview me, ask me everything, don't assume, make sure you understand, ouroboros, socratic, I have a vague idea, not sure exactly what I want.

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

# Deep Interview

Ouroboros-inspired Socratic questioning with mathematical ambiguity scoring. Replaces vague ideas with crystal-clear specifications by asking targeted questions that expose hidden assumptions.

## Pipeline
`deep-interview` → `ralplan` (consensus refinement) → `omg-autopilot` (execution)

## When to Use
- User has a vague idea and wants thorough requirements gathering
- Task is complex enough that jumping to code would waste cycles
- User wants mathematically-validated clarity before execution

## When NOT to Use
- Detailed specific request with file paths → execute directly
- Quick fix → delegate to @executor or `/ralph`
- User says "just do it" → respect their intent

## Phases

### Phase 1: Initialize
1. Parse the user's idea
2. Detect brownfield vs greenfield (use @explore to check codebase)
3. For brownfield: map relevant codebase areas
4. Initialize ambiguity score at 100%

### Phase 2: Interview Loop
Repeat until ambiguity <= 20% or user exits early:

1. **Generate question** targeting the WEAKEST clarity dimension
2. **Ask ONE question at a time** with current ambiguity context
3. **Score ambiguity** across dimensions:

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add zereight/gitlab-mcp/deep-interview@sha256:16daa80ebb497934

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260412.9d9ce51, 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.
