The closest matches are GitHub's first-ask task refinement workflow, which interrogates scope, deliverables and constraints before work begins 1, and OpenAI's API, which can send questions to a model and return replies 2.
A question back: What do you want to ask or do first? Naming the product, task or platform would let me recommend the right tool.
