What is the best way to define project scope through collaborative brainstorming?

Defining project scope through collaborative brainstorming involves exploring multiple solution paths and articulating user needs and success criteria, resulting in a balanced scope and artifact-first guidance before committing to a plan.

How do I explore solution options before deciding what to build?

Explore solution options before deciding what to build by triggering a brainstorming workflow with your feature idea, which prompts option-rich dialogue to think through alternatives and defer premature design decisions.

Can I use brainstorming dialogue to produce a requirements document for my team?

Yes, you can use brainstorming dialogue to produce a requirements document, as the process enforces a frontmatter-driven metadata contract and outputs durable decisions alongside planning guidance for your team.

When should I not use collaborative brainstorming for requirements gathering?

You should not use collaborative brainstorming when implementation specifics are already defined, as the process deliberately defers implementation details to the planning phase and focuses solely on scope and requirements gathering.
