-# API Interview - Structured API Discovery
+# API Interview - Research-Based Structured Discovery
 
 **Usage:** `/api-interview [endpoint-name]`
 
-**Purpose:** Conduct structured interview to understand API endpoint purpose, usage, and requirements before any implementation.
+**Purpose:** Conduct structured interview with MULTIPLE-CHOICE questions derived from research findings to understand API endpoint purpose, usage, and requirements before any implementation.
+
+## v1.8.0 REQUIREMENT: Structured Questions with Options
+
+**CRITICAL:** All interview questions MUST:
+1. Be based on COMPLETED research (Context7 + WebSearch)
+2. Use AskUserQuestion tool with the `options` parameter
+3. Provide multiple-choice selections derived from research findings
+4. Include a "Type something else..." option for custom input
+
+**Example of CORRECT structured question:**
+```
+AskUserQuestion(
+  question="Which AI provider should this endpoint support?",
+  options=[
+    {"value": "openai", "label": "OpenAI (GPT-4o, GPT-4-turbo)"},
+    {"value": "anthropic", "label": "Anthropic (Claude Sonnet, Opus)"},
+    {"value": "google", "label": "Google (Gemini Pro, Flash)"},
+    {"value": "all", "label": "All providers (multi-provider support)"},
+    {"value": "custom", "label": "Type something else..."}
+  ]
+)
+```
+
+This gives users clear choices from RESEARCHED capabilities, not guesses.
 
 ## Interview Methodology
 
 Based on Anthropic Interviewer approach with three phases:
 
+### Phase 0: PREREQUISITE - Research (MANDATORY)
+**You CANNOT start the interview until research is complete.**
+
+Before asking ANY questions:
+1. Use Context7 to get SDK/API documentation
+2. Use WebSearch (2-3 searches) for official docs
+3. Gather all available options, parameters, models, providers
+4. Build your question options FROM this research
+
+Example research flow:
+```
+1. mcp__context7__resolve-library-id("vercel ai sdk")
+2. mcp__context7__get-library-docs(libraryId)
+3. WebSearch("Vercel AI SDK providers models 2025")
+4. WebSearch("Vercel AI SDK streaming options parameters")
+```
+
+**Research informs options. No research = no good options = interview blocked.**
+
 ### Phase 1: Planning (Internal)
 - Review endpoint name and context
-- Identify key areas to explore
+- Review research findings (what providers, models, parameters exist?)
+- Build structured question options from research
 - Prepare follow-up questions
 
-### Phase 2: Interviewing (User Interaction)
-Ask structured questions to understand:
+### Phase 2: Interviewing (User Interaction with Structured Options)

-
-1. **Ask ALL questions** - Don't skip steps even if obvious
-2. **Request examples** - Concrete examples > abstract descriptions
-3. **Clarify ambiguity** - If answer is unclear, ask follow-ups
-4. **Document links** - Capture ALL external documentation URLs
-5. **Real scenarios** - Focus on actual usage, not hypothetical
-6. **Be thorough** - Better to over-document than under-document

+1. **RESEARCH FIRST** - Complete Context7 + WebSearch before ANY questions
+2. **STRUCTURED OPTIONS** - Every question uses AskUserQuestion with options[]
+3. **OPTIONS FROM RESEARCH** - Multiple-choice options come from discovered capabilities
+4. **ALWAYS INCLUDE "Type something else..."** - Let user provide custom input
+5. **ASK ONE AT A TIME** - Wait for response before next question
+6. **DOCUMENT EVERYTHING** - Capture ALL selections and custom inputs

+
+Before asking each question:
+- [ ] Is research complete?
+- [ ] Are options based on research findings?
+- [ ] Does it use AskUserQuestion with options parameter?
+- [ ] Is there a "Type something else..." option?
