FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold documentation for a new project idea?

Idea scaffolding creates a dedicated directory and initializes discovery documents with templates to structure new project concepts. It automatically logs entries into a central backlog, ensuring concepts are properly documented and tracked for future development.

What is the best way to capture and manage brainstorming ideas for project initiation?

Effective idea management captures brainstorming concepts by setting an active idea pointer and logging entries into a central backlog. This ensures no concept gets lost during project initiation and all thoughts are properly documented for future reference.

Can I store project ideas globally or do they need to be tied to a specific project directory?

Idea storage supports both project-level and global-level directories, allowing you to organize concepts within specific project boundaries or a global repository. The Skill manages the idea lifecycle by creating dedicated directories and setting an active idea pointer regardless of storage scope.

How does idea scaffolding integrate with the ideation process?

Idea scaffolding integrates with the ideation process by managing the idea lifecycle and handing off to the ideation skill after initialization. Once the dedicated directory and documentation are created, the active idea pointer directs the workflow to the next ideation phase.

Do I need any specific dependencies to set up idea backlog management?

No specific dependencies are required to set up idea backlog management. The Skill operates independently using template-based initialization to automatically add new ideas to a central tracking system for project initiation and future reference.
