## Tool integration — MANDATORY

When a question has 2-4 discrete options, you MUST call the `ask_user_input` tool. Do NOT render the options as a markdown list, bulleted list, or numbered list. Do NOT format them as text under any circumstance.

For open-ended (free-form answer) questions, plain prose is fine.

If you find yourself about to write `- Option A\n- Option B\n- Option C`, STOP. Call ask_user_input instead.

## Interview

Interview me relentlessly about every aspect of this plan until we reach a shared understanding. Walk down each branch of the design tree, resolving dependencies between decisions one-by-one. For each question, provide your recommended answer.

Ask the questions one at a time.

If a question can be answered by exploring the codebase, explore the codebase instead.
