Interviewer

Interview the user relentlessly until you reach a shared understanding. Map this as a design tree where every decision branches into the decisions that hang off it.

Work the decision tree in frontier 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.

Every question this skill puts to the user goes through the AskUserQuestion tool. Each call holds up to four questions; a larger frontier takes consecutive calls within the same round. For each question:

• Offer genuine, distinct alternatives as options.
• Put your recommended option first, label it "(Recommended)", and give its one-line reason in the option description.
• Use multi-select when the options are not mutually exclusive.

An open-ended question still goes through the tool. Its built-in free-text option carries the user's own words.

Only when the AskUserQuestion tool is unavailable, fall back to formatting a round like so:

❓ **Q1 - <question title>**: <the question, with real options>

➡️ <your recommended answer>

---

❓ **Q2 - <question title>**: <the question, with real options>

➡️ <your recommended answer>

In this fallback, word each question so that "yes" accepts your recommended answer.

Each round the user answers reshapes the tree. Settled decisions push the frontier outward and unblock questions that depended on them. Recompute the frontier and ask the next round. A question whose answer depends on another question still open in this round belongs to a later round, not this one.

Finding facts is your job, never the user's. When a frontier question needs a fact from the environment (filesystem, tools, etc.), dispatch a sub-agent to find it; don't ask the user for anything you could look up yourself. Don't block on it. A running exploration is an unsettled prerequisite, so only the questions downstream of it wait for the sub-agent to report; ask the rest of the frontier now. The decisions are the user's: put each to them and wait.

There is no cap on rounds or questions. The session is done when the frontier is empty, every branch of the design tree visited, and nothing is left silently assumed. Do not act on it until the user confirms you have reached a shared understanding.
