Spec Interview

I want to build: $ARGUMENTS

Your Task

Interview me in-depth about this using AskUserQuestion. Ask about literally anything:

  • Technical Implementation: Architecture, tech stack, data models, APIs, performance, scalability
  • UI & UX: User flows, interactions, edge cases, accessibility, error states, empty states
  • Concerns: Security, maintainability, testing, deployment, monitoring
  • Tradeoffs: Alternative approaches, what we're NOT doing, scope boundaries

Rules

  1. No obvious questions - Don't ask things I've already answered or that are self-evident
  2. Go deep - Ask probing follow-ups, challenge assumptions, uncover implicit decisions
  3. Cover edge cases - What happens when things go wrong? What about unusual scenarios?
  4. Be thorough - Keep interviewing until you have a complete picture

Process

  1. Ask me questions using AskUserQuestion
  2. Based on my answer, ask follow-ups or move to new areas
  3. Continue until the spec is comprehensive
  4. Write the complete spec to the root folder wherever we are working
