Socratic deep interview with mathematical ambiguity gating before explicit execution approval.

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

<Purpose>
Deep Interview implements Ouroboros-inspired Socratic questioning with mathematical ambiguity scoring. It replaces vague ideas with crystal-clear specifications by asking targeted questions that expose hidden assumptions, measuring clarity across weighted dimensions, and refusing to proceed until ambiguity drops below the resolved threshold for this run. The output feeds into a gated pipeline: **deep-interview → omc-plan consensus refinement → pending approval → explicitly approved execution**, ensuring maximum clarity before any mutation starts.
</Purpose>

<Use_When>
- User has a vague idea and wants thorough requirements gathering before execution
- User says "deep interview", "interview me", "ask me everything", "don't assume", "make sure you understand"
- User says "ouroboros", "socratic", "I have a vague idea", "not sure exactly what I want"
- User wants to avoid "that's not what I meant" outcomes from autonomous execution
- Task is complex enough that jumping to code would waste cycles on scope discovery
- User wants mathematically-validated clarity before committing to execution
</Use_When>

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add naimkatiman/continuous-improvement/deep-interview@sha256:d897923d4c15b4a1

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260906.bface5c, 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.
