SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Brainstorming turns vague ideas into clear, design-ready artifacts by guiding discovery, asking pointed questions, and aligning stakeholders before implementation.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided discovery: asks clarifying questions to uncover scope, constraints, and success criteria.
  • Multi-path design: proposes 2-3 design approaches with trade-offs and a recommended path.
  • Design doc and plan: outputs a structured spec and implementation plan for review and iteration.
  • Practical use: ideal for new features, UX flows, or system redesigns where details are missing.

Quick Start

Provide a brief project goal and constraints, and let the Brainstorming Skill begin by outlining questions, approaches, and a design plan for approval.
