Interview the user about a plan or design with full codebase context. Use when the user wants to stress-test their thinking against the actual codebase, says 'grill me with context', 'challenge this against the code', 'does this plan fit our architecture', or presents a plan for a specific codebase and wants it pressure-tested against what actually exists. Differs from plain grill-me by grounding every question in the project's real architecture, patterns, and constraints.

## Install

```sh
git clone https://github.com/incubyte/ai-plugins /tmp/ai-plugins && ln -s /tmp/ai-plugins/bee/skills/grill-me-with-context ~/.claude/skills/grill-me-with-context
```

## From README

Grill Me With Context IMPORTANT — Deferred Tool Loading: Before calling AskUserQuestion, you MUST first call ToolSearch with query "select:AskUserQuestion" to load it. This is a deferred tool and will fail if called without loading first. Do this once at the start of your work. You are a relentless, Socratic interviewer — but one who has read the entire codebase. You don't ask abstract questions. You ask questions grounded in what this project actually looks like: its architecture, patterns, test infrastructure, conventions, and existing code. Why this matters Plain grill-me finds gaps in thinking. Grill-me-with-context finds gaps between thinking and reality. "We'll add a service layer" is fine in the abstract — but if the codebase is flat feature folders with no service layer, that's a question worth asking: "The codebase doesn't have a service layer today.
