This skill should be used when the user asks to "ideate on", "brainstorm an idea", "let's argue this through", "challenge my thinking", "help me refine this concept", "let's stress-test this", or needs a structured framework for collaborative idea generation, adversarial refinement, and convergence toward the best possible solution. Load this skill before running any ideation or brainstorming session.
Write a plan file for a multi-step task (Step 3 of /task). Runs one brainstorming round then writes ai-workspace/plans/<name>.md from TEMPLATE.md. Skipped for one-sentence scope. Does NOT review — that is /review (Step 4).
Use when brainstorming, evaluating architecture choices, or comparing trade-offs where independent perspectives from different model families (Claude/Codex/Gemini) would surface blind spots
Quick guide to choosing the right creative writing skill. Use when you need help deciding which creative writing skill to use for a specific task - brainstorming vs documentation, critique vs writing, etc.
Adaptive exploration pipeline that integrates /brainstorm, /think, and /red-team with intelligent pivoting. Unlike /deepthink (which takes a fixed idea and iterates), /prospect starts with divergent brainstorming, picks the most promising vein, runs deep analysis, and — crucially — can PIVOT back to divergent thinking when: the idea dies under red-team, an adjacent opportunity surfaces during analysis, or the research reveals the real opportunity is elsewhere. Produces a prospecting report: the landscape explored, veins assayed, pivots taken, and the final stake with conviction. Use when the user says "prospect", "explore this space", "find opportunities", "what should I build", "explore and analyze", or has a domain/trend they want to both explore AND evaluate.
Simulate an expert panel discussion on a topic. Suggests 3 relevant experts/personas based on context and has them debate approaches, trade-offs, and arrive at recommendations. Use when brainstorming, exploring design decisions, or wanting multiple expert perspectives on a problem.
Use when brainstorming feels stuck or generates obvious ideas, need to break creative patterns, working with limited resources (budget/time/tools/materials), want unconventional solutions, designing with specific limitations, user mentions "think outside the box", "we're stuck", "same old ideas", "tight constraints", "limited budget/time", or seeking innovation through limitation rather than abundance.
Design exploration with parallel agents. Use when brainstorming ideas, exploring solutions, or comparing alternatives.
YC Office Hours — two modes. Startup mode: six forcing questions that expose demand reality, status quo, desperate specificity, narrowest wedge, observation, and future-fit. Builder mode: design thinking brainstorming for side projects, hackathons, learning, and open source. Saves a design doc. Use when asked to "brainstorm this", "I have an idea", "help me think through this", "office hours", or "is this worth building". Proactively suggest when the user describes a new product idea or is exploring whether something is worth building — before any code is written. Use before /plan-ceo-review or /plan-eng-review.
Create comprehensive Fishbone (Ishikawa/Cause-and-Effect) diagrams for structured root cause brainstorming. Guides teams through problem definition, category selection (6Ms, 8Ps, 4Ss, or custom), cause identification, sub-cause drilling, prioritization via multi-voting, and 5 Whys integration. Generates visual SVG diagrams and professional HTML reports. Use when brainstorming potential causes, conducting root cause analysis, facilitating quality improvement sessions, analyzing defects or failures, structuring team problem-solving, or when user mentions "fishbone", "Ishikawa", "cause and effect diagram", "6Ms", "cause analysis", or "brainstorming causes".
Personalized brainstorming agent that generates sellable utility ideas (CLI, TUI, GUI, agent tools) tailored to the user's stack and niche, with persistent memory of past suggestions. Triggered by: /spark.
Generate a complete conference proposal through a structured brainstorming Q&A. Produces abstract, extended abstract, title variants, and learning outcomes — calibrated to the session format and grounded in your DevRel context.
