Use when stress-testing a plan, design, or requirements through an interactive interview with question frontiers and adversarial challenges.
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.

# Grill Me
Stress-test a plan, design, or set of requirements through an interactive interview. Combines structured **Question Frontier Trees** with **Adversarial Interrogation**.
## Core Discipline
Interview the user relentlessly until you reach a shared, unambiguous understanding. Map decisions as a **Design Tree**: every decision branches into the secondary 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.
### Question Format
```markdown
❓ **Q1** - **<Question Title>**: <Question body detailing context and options>
➡️ **Recommended**: <Your recommended answer and rationale>
```
---
## The Adversarial Lens (Interrogation Mode)
While working the tree, actively hunt for failure modes and unstated assumptions:
1. **Failure Modes & Degradation**: What happens when the primary network call, cache, or external API fails?

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0.0, 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.
