Lightweight grilling session for brainstorming, product clarification, and early design shaping. Use when the user wants fast alignment but there is not yet enough repo context to ground a heavier doc-based review. Ask one question at a time, propose a recommended answer, and keep momentum high.

# Rapid Grilling
Use a fast questioning loop to turn a vague idea into something crisp enough to plan.
## Workflow
1. Ask one question at a time.
2. For each question, offer a recommended answer or likely framing.
3. Follow the decision tree branch-by-branch.
4. Prefer product, user, workflow, and boundary questions before implementation detail.
5. Stop when the next artifact is obvious:
- PRD;
- issue breakdown;
- prototype;
- implementation plan.
## Best Questions
- Who is this for?
- What exact problem changes for them?
- What is in scope vs out of scope?
- What is the happy path?
- What breaks, conflicts, or needs approval?
- What would make this demonstrably done?
## Guardrails
- Keep the session moving; do not over-formalize early brainstorming.
- If repo docs become relevant, switch to `doc-grounded-grilling`.
- If the idea becomes concrete enough, hand off to `spec-to-prd` or `plan-to-issues`.
## Final Report
Summarize the clarified idea, the key decisions, and the best next artifact to create.
