SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It prevents scattered thinking by guiding you through Socratic exploration until an idea is routed into the right GSD artifacts (notes, todos, seeds, research questions, requirements, or new phases).

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Probing ideation: runs an open-ended question flow to clarify assumptions, constraints, and goals before committing to plans.
  • Topic-driven exploration: accepts an optional topic argument like /gsd:explore authentication strategy to focus the inquiry.
  • Idea routing to GSD outputs: converts exploration outcomes into the appropriate artifacts that can directly drive execution.
  • Workflow execution context: leverages the provided workflow instructions at @$HOME/.claude/get-shit-done/workflows/explore.md to run the end-to-end process.

Quick Start

Ask the agent: /gsd-explore authentication strategy to explore the topic through Socratic questions and route the results into the correct GSD artifacts.

FAQPage Schema
How do I convert open-ended ideas into clear requirements and next actions?

To convert open-ended ideas into clear requirements, you can use Socratic ideation to validate assumptions and route outcomes into actionable artifacts like notes, todos, research questions, or new project phases.

What is the best way to validate assumptions during early-stage product planning?

Validating assumptions during early-stage product planning is best achieved through a probing ideation workflow that asks targeted questions to clarify constraints and goals before committing to an execution plan.

How do I run a Socratic exploration workflow for a specific topic?

You run a Socratic exploration workflow for a specific topic by passing an optional topic argument, which focuses the inquiry and guides the end-to-end process until the idea is routed into the correct artifacts.

Can I route ideation outcomes directly into my existing notes and todos?

Yes, you can route ideation outcomes directly into your existing workflow by converting the exploration results into structured artifacts such as notes, todos, seeds, research questions, or requirements.

When do I need an end-to-end exploration workflow for governance or engineering planning?

You need an end-to-end exploration workflow for governance or engineering planning when you must clarify requirements, probe constraints, and decide next phases before committing scattered ideas to a structured plan.

Does the gsd-explore ideation process work without external dependencies?

Yes, the gsd-explore ideation process works without external dependencies, relying solely on its internal workflow instructions to guide Socratic questioning and route outputs into actionable artifacts.
