Does the brainstorming skill generate code?

No. This skill is a 'Hard Gate' specifically for the planning phase. It focuses entirely on design and requirements, only transitioning to implementation planning once a design is approved.

Why should I use this skill for simple projects?

Simple projects often suffer from unexamined assumptions. This skill ensures a brief but necessary validation phase to prevent wasted work on 'easy' tasks that might be misunderstood.

How does the skill handle documentation?

Once a design is approved, the skill automatically creates a dated design document in your project's docs folder and commits it to your Git repository for future reference.

Which skill should I use after brainstorming?

The brainstorming skill is designed to transition specifically to the 'writing-plans' skill, which converts the validated design into a step-by-step implementation guide.

What is the 'one question at a time' principle?

To ensure clarity and prevent information overload, the skill is programmed to ask only one focused question per interaction, allowing for a more thorough refinement of project goals.

Productividad y Flujo de Trabajo

Facilitates collaborative design and requirement gathering to validate technical specifications before implementation begins.

This skill transforms vague ideas into comprehensive technical specifications through a structured, conversational dialogue. It enforces a mandatory design phase that prevents premature coding, ensuring that project context, user intent, and potential trade-offs are thoroughly explored and documented. By asking targeted clarifying questions and proposing multiple architectural approaches, it helps developers validate designs incrementally and generates standardized design documents before transitioning to the implementation phase via the writing-plans skill.
