brainstorming

Transform a raw idea into a design and specification through collaborative dialogue that assesses project context, asks clarifying questions, and proposes approaches. The process ensures the specification covers behavior evaluation and architecture ownership before final documentation.

Create a feature design document by pressure-testing user behavior and architecture boundaries through clarifying questions. The specification process ensures feedback paths and success criteria are clearly defined before committing the design to git.

Brainstorm design approaches by presenting 2-3 different options with trade-offs and a recommendation during a collaborative dialogue. After getting user approval on the summarized design direction, the specification creation process writes the design document.

You can use visual mockups and diagrams during specification creation via a browser-based tool. This visual companion shows mockups, diagrams, and visual options to help refine the design direction before writing the spec.

The brainstorming process checks project context by assessing files, documentation, and recent commits. Context exploration helps refine the idea by understanding the existing purpose, constraints, and success criteria before proposing design approaches.

Review a specification for clarity and scope by running a spec reviewer prompt after writing the design document. This allows the user to evaluate behavior boundaries and ensure the specification is ready before proceeding to implementation.
