Brainstorming Ideas Into Designs

Overview

Help turn ideas into fully formed designs and specs through natural collaborative dialogue.

Start by understanding the current project context, then ask questions one at a time to refine the idea. Once you understand what you're building, present the design and get user approval.

Fast Path

If the user already has a clear spec, a detailed description, or says something like "I know what I want, just help me structure it" — skip the exploration phase (steps 1-2) and go straight to proposing approaches or drafting the design. Ask one confirmation question to validate your understanding, then move on. Not every idea needs deep excavation.
