How does the iterative questioning work?

The skill asks one targeted question at a time to avoid overwhelming the user, ensuring deep focus on specific project constraints and success criteria.

Does it support different design approaches?

Yes, the skill is programmed to propose 2-3 different technical approaches with their respective pros and cons before settling on a final design.

What is the YAGNI principle used by this skill?

YAGNI stands for 'You Ain't Gonna Need It.' The skill ruthlessly identifies and removes unnecessary features from designs to keep your codebase lean and maintainable.

Why should I use the brainstorming skill before coding?

It ensures requirements are fully understood and architectural trade-offs are considered, preventing wasted effort on incorrect or over-engineered implementations.

What documentation does this skill produce?

It automatically generates a time-stamped design document in your project's docs/plans/ directory and commits it to your git repository for future reference.

生産性とワークフロー

Transforms initial ideas into detailed technical designs through iterative collaborative dialogue and systematic validation.

This skill serves as a pre-implementation architect that ensures every project starts with a clear roadmap. It prevents premature coding by leading the user through a structured discovery phase, asking targeted questions one at a time to refine requirements and project intent. The skill evaluates multiple architectural approaches with clear trade-offs and presents designs in manageable sections for incremental validation. By enforcing YAGNI principles and automatically documenting the final plan in your repository, it bridges the gap between a vague concept and a production-ready specification.
