What problem does it solve? Teams often jump into implementation before fully understanding a problem, leading to rework and misaligned requirements. This Skill provides a structured thinking partner that helps you explore ideas, investigate codebases, and clarify requirements before or during a change, without writing any implementation code. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Explore Mode Thinking: Acts as a curious, non-prescriptive thinking partner that asks questions, challenges assumptions, and surfaces risks using ASCII diagrams and codebase investigation. - OpenSpec Integration: Reads existing changes via the openspec CLI, scaffolds new changes with openspec new change, and captures decisions into proposals, designs, specs, and task artifacts. - Multi-Store Support: Discovers registered OpenSpec stores with openspec store list --json and applies sticky --store <id> scoping across all spec commands. - Use Case: Before building a real-time collaboration feature, use this Skill to map the collaboration spectrum, compare CRDT versus cursor-based approaches, and capture the resulting design decisions into an OpenSpec change proposal. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to enter explore mode and think through your idea, for example by saying you want to explore adding real-time collaboration before creating a change proposal.
