# Interview — constitutional-context peer conversation ## What It Does Interview reads your constitutional files — TELOS, identity, projects, system prompt, architecture — checks their freshness, surfaces the stalest items, and drives a contextual peer conversation to refresh them. On a populated system it runs a context check-in; on a fresh install it falls back to first-time setup. ## The Problem The files that define who you are and what you're working toward drift out of date the moment you stop looking at them. A goal you set in January may be done, dead, or still right — but nobody re-reads the whole TELOS to find out, so the context the system runs on slowly rots. The usual fix is a blank "what's your mission?" prompt, which ignores everything already on file and makes you repeat yourself. This skill reads what's there first, flags only what's gone stale, and asks "still right?" instead of starting from zero. ## How It Works The skill reads the constitutional files via the freshness tooling, scores each section's staleness, and routes to the right workflow — a check-in on a populated system, or first-time setup on a fresh one. Staleness is a priority signal, not a failure flag. ## Workflow Routing | Workflow | Trigger | File | |----------|---------|------| | **ContextCheckin** | default `/interview` on a populated system; "context check-in", "telos check-in", "what's stale", "how are we doing on…", "still on…", "review context" | `Workflows/ContextCheckin.md` |
