SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Clarify intent, surface multiple viable approaches, and embed a grill to stress-test the chosen path, so decisions are grounded before design, planning, and execution.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Propose 2–3 design approaches with an embedded grill to stress-test choices.
  • Guide the team through a structured flow: clarify intent, compare options, ask clarifying questions one at a time, and secure explicit approvals at checkpoints.
  • Enforce hard rules to prevent risky automation, such as never auto-committing and requiring explicit direction before proceeding.

Quick Start

Run a structured brainstorming session to clarify intent, present 2–3 approaches with an embedded grill, and secure explicit approvals before planning.

FAQPage Schema
How do I brainstorm design options for a new feature before planning?

Structured brainstorming works by guiding a team to clarify intent, compare 2–3 design approaches, and answer clarifying questions one at a time. It ensures decisions are grounded by requiring explicit approvals at each checkpoint.

What is the best way to stress-test design decisions during ideation?

The best way to stress-test decisions during ideation is using an embedded grill of 3–5 sharp questions. This interrogates the chosen design path to validate assumptions before moving into formal planning and execution phases.

How do I run a structured brainstorming session for product management?

You run a structured brainstorming session by clarifying intent, comparing 2–3 design options, asking clarifying questions one at a time, and securing explicit approvals at each checkpoint to prevent risky automation.

Can I automate deployments or code commits after locking in a plan?

No, you cannot automate deployments or code commits. The workflow enforces hard rules to prevent risky automation, meaning it never auto-commits and requires explicit direction from the team before proceeding to execution.

Does this brainstorming workflow require any dependencies or components?

No, this brainstorming workflow requires no dependencies or components to function. It operates independently to guide your team through ideation, option comparison, and approval checkpoints without external integrations.
