Socratic questioning clarifies vague app ideas by asking 3-5 targeted questions about goals and constraints, then synthesizing the answers into a structured product design document.

The Socratic method for product brainstorming involves asking targeted clarifying questions about project goals and constraints to guide users from unclear requirements to a ready-to-implement product design.

You generate a product_design.md by providing answers to clarifying questions during the discovery phase, which the Skill then synthesizes into a design document featuring goals, features, tech stack, and directory structure.

Yes, you can use this to plan app architecture when you have unclear requirements. The discovery phase specifically applies Socratic questioning to extract constraints and preferences before defining the architecture.

The best way to iterate on a product design before planning implementation is using the built-in approval loop, which allows you to refine the generated design document until full alignment is reached.
