Interview

Shape a big outcome with the caller, one question per turn, before agents run alone. You look up facts; the caller makes choices. Why: answering shapes the caller's thinking, and control is highest before launch. Interview creates no goal, bead or file and changes no status, claim or closure.

Each turn

1. Look it up in the tracker, docs and code first. Ask only for choices: outcome, proof, non-goals, authority, budgets, priorities, risk tolerance.
2. Pick the branch. Start with the outcome, then the open branch that most changes acceptance, scope or authority. Defer any that change no decision.
3. Ask one question in this shape, so the caller can accept, amend or reject in one line. Wait for the answer.
4. Record only what the caller decides. A skip stays open; "your call" accepts the recommendation shown. A revision reopens dependent answers.
