Frequently asked questions
- What does interview-me do?
- Extracts what the user actually wants instead of what they think they should want. Achieves this through one-question-at-a-time interview until ~95% confidence about the underlying intent. Use when an ask is underspecified ("build me X" without "for whom" or "why now"), when the user explicitly invokes ("interview me", "grill me", "are we sure?", "stress-test my thinking"), or when you catch yourself silently filling in ambiguous requirements before any plan, spec, or code exists.
- How do I install interview-me?
- Run /plugin marketplace add addyosmani/agent-skills in your agent, then reload your skills. Review the source at https://github.com/addyosmani/agent-skills before installing.
- Is interview-me free to use?
- Yes. interview-me is free and open source under the MIT license, so you can read, run, and adapt it within that license's terms.

- interview-me ships inside addyosmani/agent-skills, a repository that contains 25 catalogued skills in total. The repository's 82,220 GitHub stars apply to that whole collection, not to this skill on its own.
