Use when an ask is underspecified ("build me X" without who it's for, why now, or what success looks like), when a request is conventional rather than specific ("a dashboard", "make it faster" with no number), when Claude catches itself silently filling in ambiguous requirements before any plan, spec, or code exists, or when the user says "interview me", "grill me", "are we sure?", or "stress-test my thinking". Needs a live user; not for CI, scheduled runs, or autonomous loops.
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 Me > Cherry-picked from [addyosmani/agent-skills](https://github.com/addyosmani/agent-skills) (MIT) 2026-05-26. ## Overview What people ask for and what they actually want are different things. They ask for "a dashboard" because that's what one asks for, not because a dashboard solves their problem. They say "make it faster" without a number to hit. The cheapest moment to find this gap is before any plan, spec, or code exists. Once you've started building, switching costs are real, and the user will rationalize the wrong thing into a "good enough" thing. The misfit gets locked in. This skill closes the gap before it costs anything. It complements (does not replace) batched-options elicitation skills: this skill is for free-form interview when you don't yet know enough to offer a bounded set of choices. Use the batched-options skill when the user knows roughly what they want but needs to pick between framings; use this skill when you can't write a one-sentence statement of intent yet. ## When to Use Apply this skill when: …

How to install
mdr add mycelium-hq/ai-brain-starter/interview-me@sha256:2f47a461936d3edaThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260707.f0ac903, 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.
