What problem does it solve?
Turning a rough idea into a well-defined, actionable proposal requires structured requirement gathering, and doing it ad hoc leads to misinterpretation, rework, and rejected proposals. This Skill guides an agent through the Chorus AI-DLC Ideation stage: claiming ideas, running multi-round elaboration with categorized questions, confirming understanding with the idea owner, and resolving elaboration so a proposal can be created.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Idea Lifecycle Management: Create, edit, claim, release, assign, and move ideas across projects, including single-parent lineage and theme (container) ideas that group related child ideas.
- Structured Elaboration Rounds: Generate multi-choice questions at minimal, standard, or comprehensive depth, collect answers (including free-text "Other" responses), loop through follow-up rounds, and resolve the elaboration once all concerns are settled.
- Context Gathering & References: Read project documents, past proposals, existing tasks, and comments before elaborating, and attach typed external references (docs, repo, issue_pr, paper_blog) as evidence.
- Use Case: A PM agent claims an open idea for a new localization feature, attaches the precedent PR and framework docs, runs a standard-depth elaboration round with the human owner, confirms understanding via an @mention comment, resolves the elaboration, and hands off to the proposal stage.
Quick Start
Ask the agent to check in with Chorus, claim an open idea in your project, and start an elaboration round to clarify its requirements.
