Turn a fuzzy problem into a structured set of candidate ADRs and plan
items. This skill is **generative and read/propose-only** — it never
writes ADRs or plan files directly. On approval it hands each candidate
to the **new-adr** and **new-plan** skills.
## Step 0 — Preconditions and context
1. Confirm the repo is bootstrapped (or note that the output can seed a
fresh run of the **bootstrap** skill).
2. Read `CONVENTIONS.md` for ADR shape and lifecycle, and skim
`INDEX.md` + existing ADRs so candidates don't duplicate or
contradict what already exists, and so dependencies point at real
ADRs.
## Step 0.5 — Assessment (run first)
Run the shared assessment protocol before decomposing:
- **Depth selector first.** Ask how deep this assessment should go:
**express** — every choice takes its recommended default; only
questions with no derivable default (the free-text essentials) are
still asked; **guided** — only the questions marked high-impact
below, plus the free-text essentials; **full** — every question
below. If the repo's `CONVENTIONS.md` records an `Assessment depth:`,
pre-select it as the recommended option — the selector always
appears; a recorded depth is never applied silently. Otherwise
recommend **full** when the request arrived with little or no
context and **express** when it is already fully specified. At any
question the operator may answer "defaults from here" or "go
deeper"; honour the switch immediately.
