Interview: Wizard-Mode Questioning

Framework-powered interactive decision-making. Guides users through complex problems using strategic, creative, and philosophical frameworks.

Quick Start

/interview                    # Start new interview session
/interview --framework=SCAMPER  # Start with specific framework

How It Works

1. Context Analysis - Detect input complexity
2. Framework Recommendation - Suggest best-fit frameworks (SWOT, First Principles, Design Thinking, etc.)
3. Question Loop - Walk through structured questions, one at a time
4. MBTI Overlay (optional) - Test perspectives across personality types

Framework Library

Strategic/Systems Thinking

• SWOT, First Principles, Systems Thinking, Theory of Constraints
• McKinsey 7S, Cynefin, Jobs to Be Done

Psychological/Cognitive

• MBTI (8 Cognitive Functions), Big Five (OCEAN), Ladder of Inference

Output Format

Single question with options:

q1) {Question title}
🧠 {Framework Name} Analysis:
{1-3 sentence framework insight}

Options:
a. {Concrete option A with trade-off}
b. {Concrete option B with trade-off}
c. {Concrete option C with trade-off}

🧭 Follow-Up Menu:
1. [{Action for option A}]
2. [{Action for option B}]
3. [{Alternative perspective}]
4. [Deep dive into trade-offs]
5. [Go back]
6. [Switch framework]

Integration

• Command: /interview (formerly /guideme)
• Skill Route: skill://interview
• Used by: work skill for wizard-mode context gathering

Technique Map

• Identify scope — Determine what the skill applies to before executing.
• Follow workflow — Use documented steps; avoid ad-hoc shortcuts.
• Verify outputs — Check results match expected contract.
• Handle errors — Graceful degradation when dependencies missing.
• Reference docs — Load references/ when detail needed.
• Preserve state — Don't overwrite user config or artifacts.

Technique Notes

Skill-specific technique rationale. Apply patterns from the skill body. Progressive disclosure: metadata first, body on trigger, references on demand.

Prompt Architect Overlay

Role Definition: Specialist for interview domain. Executes workflows, produces artifacts, routes to related skills when needed.

Input Contract: Context, optional config, artifacts from prior steps. Depends on skill.

Output Contract: Artifacts, status, next-step recommendations. Format per skill.

Edge Cases & Fallbacks: Missing context—ask or infer from workspace. Dependency missing—degrade gracefully; note in output. Ambiguous request—clarify before proceeding.
