name: grill-with-docs
- description: Grilling session that challenges your plan against the existing domain model, sharpens terminology, and updates documentation (CONTEXT.md, ADRs) inline as decisions crystallise. Use when user wants to stress-test a plan against their project's language and documented decisions.
+ description: A relentless interview to sharpen a plan or design, which also creates docs (ADR's and glossary) as we go.

- <what-to-do>
-
- Interview me relentlessly about every aspect of this plan until we reach a shared understanding. Walk down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one-by-one. For each question, provide your recommended answer.
-
- Ask the questions one at a time, waiting for feedback on each question before continuing.
-
- If a question can be answered by exploring the codebase, explore the codebase instead.

-
- ## Domain awareness
-
- During codebase exploration, also look for existing documentation:
-
- ### File structure
-
- Most repos have a single context:
-
- ```
- /
- ├── CONTEXT.md
- ├── docs/
- │ └── adr/
- │ ├── 0001-event-sourced-orders.md
- │ └── 0002-postgres-for-write-model.md
- └── src/
- ```
-
- If a `CONTEXT-MAP.md` exists at the root, the repo has multiple contexts. The map points to where each one lives:
-
- ```
- /
- ├── CONTEXT-MAP.md
- ├── docs/
- │ └── adr/ ← system-wide decisions
- ├── src/
- │ ├── ordering/
- │ │ ├── CONTEXT.md
- │ │ └── docs/adr/ ← context-specific decisions
- │ └── billing/
- │ ├── CONTEXT.md
- │ └── docs/adr/
- ```
-
- Create files lazily — only when you have something to write. If no `CONTEXT.md` exists, create one when the first term is resolved. If no `docs/adr/` exists, create it when the first ADR is needed.
-
- ## During the session
-
- ### Challenge against the glossary
-
- When the user uses a term that conflicts with the existing language in `CONTEXT.md`, call it out immediately. "Your glossary defines 'cancellation' as X, but you seem to mean Y — which is it?"
-
- ### Sharpen fuzzy language
-
- When the user uses vague or overloaded terms, propose a precise canonical term. "You're saying 'account' — do you mean the Customer or the User? Those are different things."
-
- ### Discuss concrete scenarios
-
- When domain relationships are being discussed, stress-test them with specific scenarios. Invent scenarios that probe edge cases and force the user to be precise about the boundaries between concepts.
-
- ### Cross-reference with code
-
- When the user states how something works, check whether the code agrees. If you find a contradiction, surface it: "Your code cancels entire Orders, but you just said partial cancellation is possible — which is right?"
-
- ### Update CONTEXT.md inline
-
- When a term is resolved, update `CONTEXT.md` right there. Don't batch these up — capture them as they happen. Use the format in [CONTEXT-FORMAT.md](./CONTEXT-FORMAT.md).
-
- `CONTEXT.md` should be totally devoid of implementation details. Do not treat `CONTEXT.md` as a spec, a scratch pad, or a repository for implementation decisions. It is a glossary and nothing else.
-
- ### Offer ADRs sparingly
-
- Only offer to create an ADR when all three are true:
-
- 1. **Hard to reverse** — the cost of changing your mind later is meaningful
- 2. **Surprising without context** — a future reader will wonder "why did they do it this way?"
- 3. **The result of a real trade-off** — there were genuine alternatives and you picked one for specific reasons
-
- If any of the three is missing, skip the ADR. Use the format in [ADR-FORMAT.md](./ADR-FORMAT.md).
