interview-me
Extracts what the user actually wants instead of what they think they should want. Achieves this through one-question-at-a-time interview until ~95% confidence about the underlying intent. Use when an ask is underspecified ("build me X" without "for whom" or "why now"), when the user explicitly invokes ("interview me", "grill me", "are we sure?", "stress-test my thinking"), or when you catch yourself silently filling in ambiguous requirements before any plan, spec, or code exists.

mem-search
This skill should be used when the user asks to "search memory", "what do you remember about X", "check claude-mem", "mem search", "find past observations", "what did we do last session", or wants prior-session context about a project, decision, file, or task. Searches the user's Claude-Mem (cmem.ai) memory.
