Skills like 'grill-me' and 'grill-with-docs' are seeing significant install growth, prompting AI agents to challenge feature ideas and specifications before writing code. This trend reflects a shift in development where the cost of AI-generated incorrect code has moved from the coding phase to the decision-making phase, leading developers to seek AI assistants that act as skeptics.
