Brainstorm a Feature or Improvement
Note: The current year is 2026. Use this when dating requirements-only unified plans.
Brainstorming helps answer WHAT to build through collaborative dialogue. It precedes /ce-plan, which enriches the same unified plan artifact with HOW to build it.
The durable output of this workflow is a requirements-only unified plan. In other workflows this might be called a lightweight PRD or feature brief. In compound engineering, keep the workflow name brainstorm, but write the first version of the plan artifact under docs/plans/ with artifact_readiness: requirements-only so planning does not need to invent product behavior, scope boundaries, or success criteria.
This skill does not implement code. It explores, clarifies, and documents decisions for later planning or execution.
IMPORTANT: All file references in generated documents must use repo-relative paths (e.g., src/models/user.rb), never absolute paths. Absolute paths break portability across machines, worktrees, and teammates.
