What problem does it solve?
Provides a lightweight upstream exploration primitive to converge nascent ideas into a shared understanding by blending in-thread reasoning with multi-tier research across self, repo/docs, web, and peer-reviewed literature. It sits upstream of the design cycle, does not act as a bead or epic, and captures the outcome in a decision drawer for later promotion or rest.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Lightweight, multi-tier exploration that blends Tier 1 (self) and Tier 2 (repo/docs) reasoning with optional Tier 3/4 deep-research when needed.
- HYBRID loop: in-thread reasoning plus dispatched heavy rounds to surface robust grounding from web and scholarly sources.
- Two user exits: REST to park a finding, PROMOTE to wire into /design-a-cycle, with grounding in the exploration drawer.
- Seed drawers using templates and tag them as exploration to surface in searches.
Quick Start
Provide an nascent idea and trigger the exploration by issuing /explore <your-idea>.
