SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Brainstorming feature ideas can be time-consuming and reactive, especially when context is scattered across code, docs, and product plans. This skill accelerates ideation by exploring the repository landscape and guiding interactive discussion to yield concrete ideas.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Explore the codebase, docs, and vision to surface high-impact feature ideas.
  • Generate 3-5 concrete ideas prioritized by impact and feasibility.
  • Facilitate interactive discussion to refine ideas into actionable issues.

Quick Start

Use /brainstorm to generate a focused list of feature ideas.

Frequently Asked Questions about brainstorm

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I generate feature ideas from my codebase and product vision?

Generating feature ideas from a codebase involves analyzing repository context and product vision documents like VISION.md and STATUS.md. The skill reads these docs to surface 3-5 actionable ideas prioritized by impact and feasibility.

What's the best way to turn product brainstorming sessions into GitHub issues?

Turning product brainstorming sessions into GitHub issues is handled by producing a draft GitHub issue body for each generated idea. After exploring the repository and facilitating interactive discussion, the skill outputs structured issue drafts ready for submission.

Do I need living docs like VISION.md to brainstorm feature ideas?

Yes, you need living docs like VISION.md to brainstorm feature ideas effectively. The skill requires VISION.md, STATUS.md, and planned features to analyze repository context and generate high-impact ideas across product, engineering, and UX use cases.

How does ideation based on codebase insights actually work?

Ideation based on codebase insights works by exploring the repository landscape, reading context files like CLAUDE.md, and applying product vision. It prioritizes 3-5 ideas across product, engineering, and UX use cases based on impact and feasibility.

Can I refine generated feature ideas through interactive discussion?

Yes, you can refine generated feature ideas through interactive discussion. The skill facilitates interactive discussion to refine the 3-5 initially generated ideas into actionable issues before drafting the final GitHub issue bodies.

What are the limitations of using codebase analysis for product ideation?

A limitation of using codebase analysis for product ideation is its dependency on living docs. Without VISION.md and STATUS.md in the repository, the skill cannot accurately analyze repository context or align ideas with the product vision.
