$ARGUMENTS

Forcing-question library

Canonical source: engineering-team/skills/senior-fullstack/references/forcing_questions.md (7 questions, one-per-turn, recommendation + canon citation per question).

  1. Team size now + 12-month headcount
  2. Deployment cadence (per-PR / daily / weekly / quarterly)
  3. Customer-facing / internal tool / marketing site
  4. One-year p50 + p99 traffic forecast
  5. Hiring-against vs training-into the stack
  6. Year-one monthly cloud + SaaS budget ceiling
  7. Three verifiable success criteria with numeric targets

Routing protocol

  1. Walk the 7 forcing questions in engineering-team/skills/senior-fullstack/references/forcing_questions.md. One per turn. Recommend the answer with cited canon. Track in /tmp/fullstack-grill-<date>.md.
  2. Surface kill criteria — if any question trips one (e.g., "microservices day 1, team size 3"), STOP and resolve before proceeding.
  3. Run the deterministic profile picker:
    python engineering-team/skills/senior-fullstack/scripts/fullstack_decision_engine.py \
      --team-size <N> --team-size-12mo <N12> --cadence <c> \
      --user-facing <true|false> --budget <USD/mo> \
      --traffic-p99-rps <N> --data-sensitivity <tier>
    
  4. Surface the matched profile + runner-up tradeoff (if within 15%).
  5. Fork into specialists (one at a time, depth-first):
  6. api-design-reviewer for API contract
  7. database-designer for schema
  8. slo-architect for reliability target
  9. ci-cd-pipeline-builder for the pipeline
  10. performance-profiler for perf baseline
  11. cs-karpathy-reviewer before any commit

Output expectations (≤ 200-word digest)

  • Matched profile + reason
  • Three verifiable success criteria with numeric targets
  • Named approver chain
  • List of specialists invoked + artifact paths
  • Recommended next sub-skill (if any)

Anti-patterns

  • ❌ Bundling forcing questions — one per turn.
  • ❌ Skipping the kill-criteria check.
  • ❌ Reimplementing specialist scope. Fork — don't duplicate.
  • ❌ Auto-approving production changes. Always name the human approver.

Customization

Profiles live at engineering-team/skills/senior-fullstack/profiles/. To customize for your org:

  1. Copy saas-startup.json (or whichever best fits) to <your-org>.json.
  2. Edit constraints, stack_recommendations, success_thresholds, named_approver_chain.
  3. The decision engine auto-discovers new profile JSONs.
