office-hours
YC-partner-style interrogation of a raw idea. Six forcing questions before you shape anything: demand reality, status quo, desperate specificity, narrowest wedge, observation & surprise, future-fit. Operationalizes the AGENTS.md "Diverge Before You Converge" doctrine at the ideation stage — problem-diamond, pre-/shape. Use when: user arrives with a rough idea, backlog item is fuzzy, you can't already write a one-sentence goal with a testable outcome, or the phrase "what should we build" would be useful. Trigger: /office-hours, /oh, /interrogate.
development12
ceo-review
Dialectical premise-and-alternatives audit for a plan, spec, or context packet. Four moves: premise challenge (is this the right problem?), mandatory structurally-distinct alternatives, cross-model outside voice, user-ratified convergence. Operationalizes the AGENTS.md "Diverge Before You Converge" doctrine at the plan-review stage. Use when: about to commit to a plan/spec/design, reviewing a ticket before shape, when "is this the right problem" would be useful, or any time a proposal smells like a symptom fix instead of a root-cause fix.

Use when: "tailor this repo", "configure the agent for this codebase", "set up a harness", "what skills apply here". Trigger: /tailor.
