grill-with-context

grill-with-context is a skill for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor from vpeetla-ai/react-agent-pattern. It costs 45 tokens per session (346 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of grill-with-context, MIT.

An interview process for clarifying a large or loosely defined software feature before coding begins.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for cross-layer features, cross-repository integrations, and requests such as “build X” that need a defined plan, tests, scope, and architecture decisions.
Why use it?
It resolves unclear ownership, requirements, success criteria, side effects, and API assumptions before implementation creates rework.

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-with-context 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 4d 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.

Origin

What it actually says

Grill With Context

Inspired by mattpocock/skills grill-with-docs — org-specific version.

When to use

  • New feature spanning multiple stack layers
  • Unclear which repo should own the change
  • User says "build X" without success criteria

Process

  1. Restate the goal in one sentence; ask if correct
  2. Grill — ask one question at a time until resolved:
    • Which stack layer? (see governed-ai-stack)
    • What defines done? (test, demo URL, metric)
    • Side effects? (gateway/HITL required?)
    • Stub mode or live API keys?
  3. Sharpen vocabulary — if the user uses vague terms, propose CONTEXT.md entries
  4. ADR candidates — flag decisions that need an ADR in ai-architecture-portfolio
  5. Output — short plan with repo, files, test strategy, out-of-scope list

Rules

  • Do not start coding until grilling is complete
  • Do not ask five questions in one message
  • Prefer multiple-choice when options are finite

After grilling

Suggest tdd-agent-loops for implementation or to-prd equivalent: write plan to docs/plans/<slug>.md

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.
