sp-brainstorming

Structured design brainstorming reduces rework by guiding you through clarifying questions one at a time to refine project constraints. It then proposes 2-3 design approaches with trade-offs and a recommended option before generating a formal design doc.

Documenting design trade-offs is best handled by evaluating 2-3 proposed design approaches during a structured brainstorming session. The dialogue flow validates constraints and produces a formal design doc to capture the recommended option and its rationale.

Yes, you can generate an implementation plan directly from a design doc through an integration point for sp-writing-plans. The brainstorming workflow produces the formal design documentation and hands it off to the implementation planning workflow.

Guided dialogue refines feature concepts by asking one clarifying question at a time to validate purpose and constraints. This structured flow ensures early-stage ideas are fully vetted and aligned before proposing specific design approaches.

You do not need sp-writing-plans to start design brainstorming, as it functions independently to clarify goals and generate design docs. However, sp-writing-plans is required as a dependency to complete the hand-off and produce the final implementation plan.
