What it does

Grill And Record is an agent skill from asgeirtj/system_prompts_leaks. Run an explicitly requested decision interview and record each settled decision in durable project documentation.

Its SKILL.md is about 910 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

The repository describes itself as: Documented system prompts from Anthropic - Claude Fable 5.1, Opus 5.5, Claude Design, Claude Code. OpenAI - ChatGPT GPT-6-Astra, Codex. Google - Gemini 3.8 Flash, 3.1 Pro… The licence is CC0-1.0.

Example prompts

  • “/grill-and-record”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Research discoverable facts in the repository, issue, docs, and code before asking the user. Ask only for judgments or facts that cannot…
  2. Ask one decision-forcing question at a time. State the recommended answer and the reason briefly, then wait for the answer.
  3. Prefer the host's structured input surface for bounded decisions
  4. Use comparison tables only when the user explicitly requested one or the question concerns agent-product behavior, such as Claude Code…
  5. Follow dependent decisions until the skill decides the decision tree is exhausted. Never ask a final "are we done?" meta-question.
  6. Summarize the settled contract: goals, non-goals, decisions, constraints, risks, validation, and unresolved items.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 60d44cc. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Grill And Record loads about 912 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 33 tokens; SKILL.md has 511 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~33
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~912

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Grill and Record

Use this skill only when the user explicitly asks for grilling plus durable documentation or directly invokes this skill. Complexity, ambiguity, or a possible need for docs alone never activates it. This skill carries its own interview and documentation contract. Do not load or invoke grill or domain-modeling at runtime.

Interview Contract

  1. Research discoverable facts in the repository, issue, docs, and code before asking the user. Ask only for judgments or facts that cannot be discovered.
  2. Ask one decision-forcing question at a time. State the recommended answer and the reason briefly, then wait for the answer.
  3. Prefer the host's structured input surface for bounded decisions:
    • Use request_user_input when it is exposed and the decision fits 2-3 short, mutually exclusive choices. Put the recommended answer first. Send one question per call with id, header, question, and options; omit Other and None because the client provides a free-form escape. Never set the top-level auto_resolution_ms in a grilling interview: a grilling decision always waits for the human answer, because auto-resolving to the recommended default is never safe when the whole point of the interview is the user's judgment.
    • On Claude Code, use AskUserQuestion for the same bounded choice.
    • Use plain chat only when the structured surface is unavailable or the answer needs free-form discussion. Never pose a bounded checkpoint as plain assistant text or as a free-form question before offering structured choices.
  4. Use comparison tables only when the user explicitly requested one or the question concerns agent-product behavior, such as Claude Code versus Codex.
  5. Follow dependent decisions until the skill decides the decision tree is exhausted. Never ask a final "are we done?" meta-question.
  6. Summarize the settled contract: goals, non-goals, decisions, constraints, risks, validation, and unresolved items.

Ending the interview never authorizes implementation. Implement only after a separate explicit user request.

Documentation Contract

  1. Before the first question, resolve the target document from the user's named target and the repository's existing documentation conventions. Inspect local instructions, indexes, specs, ADRs, glossaries, and nearby docs. If the target is undeterminable, ask one question. Never invent a universal docs/grilling/<date>.md location.
  2. Create or update the target as Draft. Write each settled decision immediately as Draft instead of waiting for the interview to end. Keep unresolved questions visibly marked.
  3. If interrupted or cancelled, preserve the Draft and all file edits, mark unresolved questions, and never auto-revert documentation changes.
  4. Read detailed CONTEXT.md, ADR, glossary, or other format references only when that document type is actually being written.
  5. Normal Write/Edit tool events are the live proof of documentation work. Do not emit duplicate Updated <path> status lines.
  6. An explicit docs request is a hard completion condition: the session cannot finish successfully without a useful documentation creation or update. "No docs needed" with zero file changes never satisfies it.
  7. Only explicit user acceptance may change a document from Draft to Final. Exhausting the decision tree does not imply acceptance.
  8. In the final response, list every changed documentation path and whether it stayed Draft or became Final.
