grill-me

grill-me is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sruja-ai/sruja. It costs 0 tokens per session (476 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guided interview process for agreeing on a software feature's design before code is written.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when planning a significant feature or change. It helps define the problem, users, acceptance criteria, failure cases, architecture, and documentation.
Why use it?
It exposes unclear requirements, assumptions, dependencies, edge cases, and success measures before they become implementation problems.

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

grill-me 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 12d 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.

What it actually says

Grill Me - Shared Understanding Skill

This skill ensures AI and human share a design concept before writing code.

Description

Use this skill when planning new features or significant changes. The AI will interview you relentlessly to reach shared understanding.

Usage

# Activate skill
@skill:grill-me

# Or use in prompt
"Grill me on this plan until we reach shared understanding."

Process

  1. You describe what you want to build
  2. AI asks questions to clarify:
    • What problem does this solve?
    • Who is the user?
    • What are the success criteria?
    • What are the dependencies?
    • What could go wrong?
    • How do you measure success?
  3. Continue until AI has no more questions
  4. Document the shared understanding as PRD or issues

Questions AI Will Ask

Understanding Phase

  • What exactly are you trying to build?
  • Why is this important?
  • Who will use this?
  • What happens if we don't build it?

Requirements Phase

  • What are the acceptance criteria?
  • What are the edge cases?
  • What are the error conditions?
  • What are the performance requirements?

Architecture Phase

  • What does this depend on?
  • What will depend on this?
  • Where does this fit in the architecture?
  • What are the boundary conditions?

Implementation Phase

  • How will you verify this works?
  • What could go wrong in production?
  • What is the rollback plan?
  • How do you measure success?

Example

You: I want to add a feature that shows code complexity
AI: What problem does this solve?
You: Developers don't understand their code quality
AI: What specifically do you want to measure?
You: Cyclomatic complexity
AI: What threshold indicates "too complex"?
You: 10
AI: What happens when it exceeds threshold?
AI: [continues until full understanding]

Output

After grilling, produce:

  • Product Requirements Document (PRD)
  • Or direct to issues/tasks
  • Never start coding until shared understanding reached

Why This Matters

From the talks: "Me and the AI don't share a design concept."

  • Without shared understanding, AI produces garbage
  • Re-running compiler just produces more garbage
  • Solution: reach shared understanding first
Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

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.

grill-me is a skill published in the GitHub repository sruja-ai/sruja (24 stars, last pushed 5d ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 476 tokens. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
