SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Capture new product ideas, feature concepts, or internal-tool proposals and store them in a durable backlog instead of letting them vanish in chat, enabling triage and later specification.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Lightweight capture that appends ideas to the root backlog file and preserves them for later triage.
  • Optional creation of a tracking GitHub Issue to accompany the backlog item.
  • Deduplication checks before adding a new idea, and an active-idea marker to coordinate multi-session usage.
  • Supports simple triage workflows that progressively funnel ideas toward writing a spec or moving to development.

Quick Start

Submit a short title and a one-line description for a new idea using /idea, then follow prompts to categorize and describe.

FAQPage Schema
How do I capture product ideas in chat without losing them before triage?

To capture product ideas without losing them, use lightweight submission to append new entries directly to a shared backlog file. This prevents ideas from evaporating in chat and preserves them for later triage workflows.

How does deduplication work when adding a new idea to the backlog?

Deduplication for new backlog ideas works by performing a fuzzy duplicate check before appending. This scan compares the new submission against existing backlog entries to prevent redundant tracking issues and clutter.

Can I create a GitHub tracking issue for a backlog item during capture?

Yes, you can create a GitHub tracking issue during backlog capture. When submitting a new idea, you can request an accompanying issue to link the backlog entry directly to your repository for development tracking.

What is the best way to triage captured ideas before writing a spec?

The best way to triage captured ideas is to review the shared backlog file where all submissions are stored. This progressive funneling workflow helps evaluate ideas before moving them toward writing a specification or starting development.

Do I need a specific project setup to append ideas across multiple sessions?

No extensive project setup is required to append ideas across multiple sessions. The system uses an active-idea marker and a single backlog file at the root, enabling lightweight capture and coordination across different ongoing workflows.
