Say it in your own words; the assistant finds this recipe by itself. Examples:
“Jeg har skrevet en udkast til vores nye marketingstrategi. Kan du stille mig nogle svære spørgsmål om målgruppen?”
“Grill mig om min arkitektur til den nye backend. Er valget af database forudseeligt?”
“Her er min projektplan i `plan.md`. Find hullerne i min tidsplan og ressourceallokering.”
“I've drafted a migration plan for our database, but I'm not sure if the downtime window is realistic. Can you grill me on this?”
“Review my product launch strategy. Ask me hard questions about the target audience and pricing model.”
“I need to finalize the API design for the new service. Please challenge my choice of authentication method.”

When it is the right choice
Use this skill when a user has a draft plan, architectural design, or business strategy and wants to identify weaknesses, gaps, or logical inconsistencies before execution. It is ideal for scenarios where the user needs external pressure to clarify vague ideas or justify specific choices. It serves as a pre-mortem or red-teaming exercise for high-stakes decisions.
