SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Socratic ideation sessions often stall due to unclear direction and scattered outputs. This skill provides a structured, question-driven approach that helps developers explore ideas thoroughly and route results to the appropriate qsd artifacts (notes, todos, seeds, research questions, or new planning phases).

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided Socratic questioning to refine ideas before committing to plans.
  • Optional spawning of research artifacts and routing outputs to notes, seeds, or new planning phases.
  • End-to-end workflow execution that reads and follows the explore workflow to produce structured outputs in the qsd workspace.

Quick Start

Provide an idea topic to start an open-ended Socratic ideation session and route results to notes, todos, seeds, or new planning phases.

FAQPage Schema
How do I use Socratic questioning to refine software ideas before planning?

Socratic ideation uses structured, question-driven sessions to explore concepts thoroughly. You provide an idea topic, and the workflow guides you through refining it before committing to structured plans or tasks.

What's the best way to structure early concept exploration and feature ideation?

Early concept exploration benefits from a guided workflow that applies Socratic questioning to feature ideation. This approach handles varying topic complexity and ensures ideas are fully refined before moving to formal planning.

Can I route ideation outputs directly to notes, todos, and research artifacts?

Yes, ideation outputs can be routed directly to structured artifacts. After refining an idea, you can optionally spawn research questions and route results to notes, todos, seeds, or new planning phases.

How do I start an open-ended Socratic ideation session for a new feature?

To start a Socratic ideation session, simply provide an idea topic. The workflow then executes end-to-end, asking structured questions to refine the concept and outputting results to the appropriate workspace artifacts.

Do I need any dependencies to run structured Socratic ideation workflows?

No dependencies are required to run the Socratic ideation workflow. It operates independently to guide idea refinement and route structured outputs, though it integrates into a broader qsd workspace environment.
