SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

It provides the correct brainstorm, decision, and research document templates for the /brainstorm workflow without forcing users to manage template files manually.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Just-in-time template loading: Supplies the right reference template only at the specific /brainstorm step when structured output is saved.
  • Open-to-decision lifecycle support: Guides the Agent to keep an evolving brainstorm as a living document, then create a frozen decision snapshot when finalized.
  • Research extraction structure: Defines how to generate a separate research document from brainstorm content after user consent.

Quick Start

Tell your AI agent to run the /brainstorm workflow for a topic, then finalize the decision so it automatically uses the matching templates for open brainstorms, frozen decisions, and optional research extraction.

FAQPage Schema
How do I load brainstorming templates only when needed during an agent workflow?

Just-in-time template loading supplies the correct structured document template at the specific brainstorm step when output is saved, preventing manual file management. The sidecar data router loads the matching references automatically at save time.

What is the best way to structure open brainstorming sessions and freeze decisions?

Open-to-decision lifecycle support keeps an evolving brainstorm as a living document, then generates a frozen decision snapshot when finalized. This ensures brainstorming remains flexible while preserving a static decision record.

How do I generate research documents from brainstorm content after user consent?

Consent-gated research extraction defines how to generate a separate research document from finalized brainstorm content. The workflow triggers extraction only after explicit user approval is granted.

Do I need YAML frontmatter discovery fields to manage brainstorm templates?

Yes, YAML frontmatter discovery fields are required to enforce the sidecar data router behavior. This mechanism ensures the appropriate reference templates are discovered and loaded correctly at save time.

How do I start a brainstorm workflow with structured documents using an AI agent?

Tell your AI agent to run the brainstorm workflow for a topic, then finalize the chosen option. The system automatically applies the matching templates for open exploration, frozen decisions, and optional research extraction.
