What problem does it solve?
It prevents teams from turning vague ideas into poorly scoped Linear issues by enforcing research, full architecture context loading, and sprint-fit scoring before anything gets created.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Deep Research & Fact Verification: pulls in external facts via
/research when needed and ensures acceptance criteria are grounded in verified details.
- Architecture-Aware Story Drafting: loads the complete
ARCHITECTURE_DESIGN.md (including all ADRs), checks SYSTEM_ARCHITECTURE.md and config/database impact, then generates a feature-grade Architecture Design Document (ADD) when appropriate.
- Governance via Enforcement Checks: requires that every new architectural decision is either machine-enforced (guard location documented) or automatically triggers a suggested “Guard Story” for paper-only decisions.
- Dependency Mapping & Sprint-Fit Scoring: drafts a story with bidirectional dependencies, estimates story points, evaluates carry-over risk, and only finalizes the Linear issue after operator approval.
Quick Start
Use the command /ideation when you have a new feature idea or need a well-written Linear issue with research, an ADD, and validated sprint fit.
