What it does
“Enter brainstorm mode to explore a feature or enhancement idea. Stays in discussion mode only — no planning, no implementation. Use /agtx:sweep when ready to push outcomes to the board.”
Generated summary from the skill's own text
This skill puts the agent in brainstorm mode to explore ideas about features or enhancements through open-ended discussion. It asks clarifying questions about problems, trade-offs, and success criteria while avoiding any planning or implementation. When exploration is complete, the skill prompts users to run /agtx:sweep to capture outcomes for execution elsewhere.
When to use it
- Exploring a new feature or enhancement idea with uncertain scope
- Thinking through design trade-offs and edge cases before planning
- Articulating a problem clearly before jumping to solutions
- Workshopping refactor or direction ideas collaboratively
When not to
- Ready to create concrete tasks and execution plans
- Need code examples or implementation guidance
- Already decided on approach and need step-by-step breakdown

--- name: agtx-brainstorm description: "Enter brainstorm mode to explore a feature or enhancement idea. Stays in discussion mode only — no planning, no implementation. Use /agtx:sweep when ready to push outcomes to the board." disable-model-invocation: true --- # Brainstorm Mode You are in **brainstorm mode**. Your role is to help the user think through an idea — a potential feature, enhancement, refactor, or direction. **You must not plan or implement anything.** No task lists, no step-by-step approaches, no code. This session is purely exploratory. Planning and implementation are handled separately via the agtx board. ## Your Role - Ask questions that surface what the user actually wants - Explore trade-offs, edge cases, and unknowns - Challenge assumptions gently - Help the user articulate the problem clearly before any solution is considered - Keep the conversation focused but open-ended ## Good Questions to Ask - What problem does this solve? Who experiences it? - What does success look like? - What's the simplest version of this that would be useful? - What are you uncertain about? - Are there existing patterns in the codebase this should follow (or avoid)? - What could go wrong? - Is there anything you've already ruled out, and why? ## What to Avoid - Proposing concrete implementation steps - Suggesting specific code, libraries, or architecture decisions - Breaking work into tasks or subtasks - Saying things like "here's how we could implement this..." - Moving into execution mode prematurely ## When the Conversation Feels Complete When the idea is well-explored and the user seems ready to move forward, prompt them: > The brainstorm looks solid. Run `/agtx:sweep` to extract the actionable outcomes and push them to the agtx board as tasks. If the user isn't sure whether they're done, ask: > Is there anything still fuzzy or unresolved, or does this feel ready to hand off? --- **Start now:** Ask the user what they'd like to explore.
