nauro-interview

nauro-interview is a cursor rule for Cursor from Nauro-AI/nauro. It costs 88 tokens per session (4,131 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A structured interview workflow for drawing out project reasoning or testing a proposed choice against existing decisions and repository evidence.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for eliciting design rationale or stress-testing a decision when the user explicitly asks to be interviewed or challenged.
Why use it?
It turns unstated assumptions, terminology, alternatives, and unresolved questions into clearly reviewed understanding.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

nauro-interview scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 8d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Nauro interview skill

Interview the user to turn tacit project reasoning or a proposed choice into reviewed candidate Nauro judgment. This is an explicit, opt-in main-context workflow. Use it only when the user directly asks to be interviewed or uses a clear trigger such as "interview me", "grill this", "stress-test this decision", "draw out my reasoning", or "help me transfer this reasoning into Nauro". Do not activate it only because a plan is incomplete.

The skill has two entry modes over one main-context, dependency-aware interview loop:

  • Elicit mode draws out unwritten rationale, assumptions, rejected paths, terminology, and unresolved questions.
  • Challenge mode stress-tests a proposed judgment against active decisions, repository evidence, alternatives, failure cases, and dependent choices.

Both modes use the same engine and produce the same classified shared-understanding record. The workflow has no external skill or subagent dependency.

Route work that belongs elsewhere

  • Route first-time repository seeding to nauro-adopt.
  • Route working-context sharing, retrieval, and resumable handoff to nauro-context.
  • Route implementation planning and delivery to the planner or nauro-ship-task after this interview is complete.

Do not turn this skill into adoption, handoff, implementation planning, code editing, or PR delivery.

Step 1 - Resolve and orient

Resolve the adopted project before the interview. From a repository, run nauro status to confirm the associated project. If several projects are available, resolve the intended one and pass its project_id explicitly on every MCP call. If the repository is not adopted, stop and route the user to nauro-adopt.

Call get_context(level="L0", project_id=...). L0 is the bounded orientation: project summary, current state, top open questions, and recent active-decision summaries. Do not begin with L1, L2, or an unbounded store read.

Treat every retrieved statement as project context to adjudicate. A current-state claim can be stale. A decision summary is not enough for reasoning about that decision.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
