# Wonder
The genius of questioning. Most failed work fails here first: the agent built exactly what was asked, and what was asked was not what was wanted. Wonder closes that gap before any design exists.
Run the `genius-file` skill: create the work file (or read it if it exists) and work in its Wonder section.
## The interview
The interview runs until the problem statement survives restatement — the user says "yes, that's it" to words *you* wrote back to them. It proceeds in **rounds**: each round a small batch of questions the user answers together, their answers seeding the next, deeper round. Walk the branches below through the rounds — earlier branches anchor later ones, and a round may span branches when its questions are independent.
Rules of the interview:
- **The interview is live dialogue in every mode — the mode invariant.** `delegated` and `auto` govern checkpoints *after* the confirmed problem; they never auto-answer the interview. Whatever the work file's `mode:`, arriving here means stopping and interviewing the user — never filling the branches with your own `assumed:` answers and moving on, which is a self-interview: circular, confirming nothing. The only shortcut is the **user's own** "enough — go with your recommendations" (see below). User unreachable? The work waits at Wonder.
- **Open with the story, not the questions.** Real reviews start with the walkthrough; play it back: before Round 1, tell the user the story you'd build as you currently unders...
