Patterns

Question Categories

Problem Space

- What problem are we solving?
- Who experiences this problem?
- What's the impact (cost, time, frustration)?
- How is it solved today?

Solution Space

- What does success look like?
- What are must-have vs nice-to-have features?
- What constraints exist (tech, budget, timeline)?
- What's explicitly out of scope?

Technical Context

- What existing systems must integrate?
- What tech stack is required/preferred?
- What are performance requirements?
- What security/compliance needs exist?

Clarity Scoring

Score each answer 1-5:
1 = No answer / "I don't know"
2 = Vague / conflicting
3 = Partial clarity
4 = Clear with minor gaps
5 = Fully clear and actionable

Target: Average ≥3.5 before proceeding

Batch Questions (Max 7)

Present max 7 questions per round.
Wait for answers before next batch.
Prioritize blocking questions first.

Anti-Patterns

  • Asking leading questions
  • Assuming requirements without validation
  • Skipping "why" questions
  • Too many questions at once (>7)
  • Not validating conflicting answers

Verification Checklist

  • Problem clearly defined
  • Success criteria measurable
  • Scope explicitly bounded
  • Constraints documented
  • Average clarity score ≥3.5
  • All stakeholders consulted
