Grill Me

Overview

Grill Me interviews you before work begins. It maps decisions as a design tree, asks all currently answerable questions in a numbered round, and recommends an answer to each. Your answers unlock the next round; the agent waits for your confirmation of shared understanding before acting. The original skill is by Matt Pocock; this example packages the supplied text for installation.

Try asking

Use grill-me to pressure-test my idea for a weekly customer feedback digest. Interview me until we agree on the design before building anything.

Use grill-me to design an onboarding flow for a fictional subscription app. Challenge my assumptions about users, success criteria, and edge cases before we agree on what to build.

Who it’s for

Anyone with an idea, plan, or feature that needs sharper decisions before implementation. Bring the goal and constraints; the agent works through the unresolved choices with you.

Not verified

On October 8, 2026, version 0.1.0 passed the directory build, boundary checks, and Claude marketplace and plugin validators. Claude Code 2.1.86 and Codex CLI 0.145.0 each installed it in temporary empty settings; both cached the exact skill text. Three synthetic interview cases were prepared, but all model runs stopped at authentication before producing an answer. These results establish packaging and installation only; no interview quality or student review is claimed.

Limits

An interview guide, not a guarantee that every decision will be found. Environmental fact-finding requires an agent app with filesystem or other relevant tools and sub-agent support. MBA student review, cross-app behavior, and interview consistency have not been verified.
