What problem does it solve? Raw ideas are often vague, untested, and anchored to the first solution that comes to mind. This Skill guides you through a structured three-phase conversation that expands your options, stress-tests assumptions, and converges on a clear, buildable direction before any implementation begins. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Divergent Exploration: Restates your idea as a "How Might We" question, asks focused clarifying questions, and generates 5-8 thoughtful variants using lenses like inversion, constraint removal, and audience switching. - Convergent Evaluation: Clusters resonant ideas into distinct directions and stress-tests each against user value, feasibility, and differentiation, explicitly surfacing hidden assumptions that could kill the idea. - Actionable Deliverable: Produces a markdown one-pager saved to docs/ideas/ containing the problem statement, recommended direction, key assumptions to validate, MVP scope, and an explicit "not doing" list. - Use Case: A founder with a vague concept like "help local restaurants compete with delivery platforms" invokes the skill, explores six variants, and walks away with a focused retention-engine concept, testable assumptions, and a clear MVP scope. ## Quick Start Ask the agent to help you refine or stress-test your idea, for example by saying "Help me refine this idea: a tool that helps local restaurants retain their regular customers."
