What problem does it solve?

This skill helps teams uncover hidden assumptions and ambiguities in early ideas by guiding a disciplined, stage-based questioning process until both sides share a precise understanding, enabling a reliable handoff to PRDs or plans.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Open-ended exploration: Start broad to map the territory without forcing premature decisions.
  • Phase-based pressure testing: Move through structured questions to reveal gaps, risks, and unstated constraints.
  • The Brief synthesis: Produce a final, concise brief that captures core problem, target users, success criteria, and boundaries for the next phase.

Quick Start

Prompt the user to describe the idea and begin Phase 1 questions to surface the core problem and plan to create The Brief.
