Brainstorming Skill

Overview

This skill serves two critical purposes:

1. Interactive Design Process: Guides the AI through a natural, collaborative dialogue to turn ideas into fully formed designs and specs before any code is written.
2. Comprehensive Ideation Framework: Provides 30+ research-validated prompt patterns to help generate high-quality ideas across any domain (marketing, content, features).

The Brainstorming Workflow

You MUST create a task for each of these items and complete them in order when working on software features, component designs, or complex tasks. (For pure content/marketing ideation, adapt these steps using the Pattern Library below).

1. Explore context — check project state, files, docs, recent commits
2. Ask clarifying questions — one at a time, understand purpose/constraints/success criteria
3. Propose 2-3 approaches — with trade-offs and your recommendation (use Pattern Library for inspiration)
