--- name: presentation-story-grill description: Pressure-tests an approved story against audience relevance, evidence interpretation, counter-cases, repeated slides, and conclusion quality using round-by-round frontier grilling. Use when the story-grill gate is current for a presentation project or when a router asks for a story opposition pass that may return passed, needs_revision: product-grill, or needs_revision: evidence.
Grill the story
Use when story-grill is the current gate.
- Read repo instructions,
PRESENTATION-BRIEF.md,EVIDENCE-LEDGER.md,STORY.md,STORYBOARD.md, and cited source files before judging the story. - Always explore files and verify facts directly instead of asking the user for discoverable data.
- Structure interactive opposition reviews using round-by-round frontier grilling:
- Ask all open consequential story/opposition challenges in a single round.
- Format each challenge as:
❓ **Q1** - **<opposition challenge title>**: <strongest counter-case, gap in evidence, or audience objection> ➡️ <recommended resolution & story adjustment>
- Use
references/opposition-review.mdfor the autonomous opposition-review fallback when the user is unavailable or the remaining challenge is clear from the files. - State the strongest reasonable case against the story and what the opposition must concede.
- Pressure-test why the audience should care, whether the thesis answers the right problem, whether the evidence supports the interpretation, what counter-evidence is missing, whether slides repeat or decorate, and whether the conclusion really follows.
- Return
needs_revision: product-grillwhen the story exposes the wrong audience, problem, outcome, promise, or success test. - Return
needs_revision: evidencewhen the story needs unsupported claims, missing counter-evidence, or weaker wording. - Confirmation Gate: Confirm with the user that the story withstands the strongest counter-cases before marking
passed. - Return
passedonly when the remaining story is confirmed useful, accurate, and distinctive after opposition review.

- Append new decisions without deleting or rewriting entries from other grill phases or earlier runs.
- Preserve existing product or stage decisions.
- Log only decisions that materially change the brief, evidence, story order, prototype scope, or stage language.
