# /c-level-agents:office-hours — Six-Question Founder Interrogation

**Command:** `/c-level-agents:office-hours <topic>`

Before any advice, the founder must answer six questions. Modeled on YC office hours: no analysis until the founder has done the thinking. This is the cognitive forcing function that prevents drift into solutionism.

## When to Run

- Before starting any major initiative
- Before fundraising
- Before a strategic pivot
- When the founder is excited (excitement is a tell — pressure-test)
- When the answer is "obvious" (the obvious answer is usually wrong)
