## Quick Start

```python
from optimization_engine.interview import StudyInterviewEngine

# Create engine
engine = StudyInterviewEngine(study_path)

# Start interview
session = engine.start_interview("my_study", introspection=introspection_data)

# Get first question
action = engine.get_first_question()
print(action.message)

# Process answers in loop
while action.action_type == "ask_question":
    user_response = input()
    action = engine.process_answer(user_response)

# When complete
if action.action_type == "show_summary":
    blueprint = action.blueprint
    config = blueprint.to_config_json()
```
