What problem does it solve?
Raw ideas often jump straight into code without structured thinking, leading to poorly framed problems and missed risks. This Skill orchestrates the Reversa Ideation Team to clarify an idea through framing, divergence, premortem analysis, and convergence before any development artifact exists.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Structured Ideation Pipeline: Routes an idea through five stages (framing, options, risks, decision, pre-spec), each producing a traceable Markdown artifact in the brainstorms folder.
- Session Management: Detects in-progress ideation sessions via active-ideation.json, resumes from the correct stage based on files on disk, and supports parallel sessions.
- Context Detection: Works in both greenfield projects and legacy codebases with existing Reversa reverse-engineering extractions, anchoring ideation in what was already mapped.
- Use Case: Before building a new feature on a legacy system, run the brainstorm to separate the problem from the solution, explore multiple approaches, attack the assumptions with a premortem, and hand off a decided pre-spec to the requirements pipeline.
Quick Start
Ask the agent to run /reversa-brainstorm and describe your idea in one or two sentences to start a guided ideation session.
