What problem does it solve?

This Skill resolves two common friction points in the brainstorming clarifying-questions phase: silent scope drift when users append free-text requirements to structured answers, and slow decision latency from serial owner-gated choices that block critical path work.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Scope Drift Handling: Automatically treats free-text additions to structured answers as new requirements, reflects them back to the user, and re-confirms working scope to avoid building outdated deliverables.
• Batched Owner-Gated Decisions: Groups multiple blocking choices that are the user's responsibility into a single batch question with recommended defaults and tradeoffs, cutting down round-trips and unblocking downstream work.
• Use Case Example: During a product requirements brainstorming session, if a user selects a 3-team delivery structure then adds "also prepare handoff docs for parallel teams", the skill catches this scope change and re-confirms before proceeding. If multiple blocking decisions (team size, documentation scope, handoff format) are needed, it batches them with recommended defaults for single-approval.

Quick Start

Use the brainstorming-extras skill alongside the core brainstorming skill during clarifying questions to re-confirm scope when free-text requirements are added, and batch owner-gated blocking decisions with recommended defaults to unblock critical path work.
