SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Brainstorming helps teams explore the design space before committing to a single approach by generating 2-3 concrete alternatives with explicit tradeoffs and a recommended direction.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Propose 2-3 concrete approaches with pros, cons, and effort estimates.
  • Document decision rationale and constraints for future traceability.
  • Persist the chosen direction and rationale to a structured record before spec writing.

Quick Start

Initiate a brainstorming session to produce 2-3 concrete design alternatives with tradeoffs and a recommended direction.

FAQPage Schema
How do I explore multiple architecture design directions before committing to a single approach?▼

To explore architecture design directions, you can generate 2-3 concrete alternatives with explicit tradeoffs, effort estimates, and a recommended direction to evaluate the design space before commitment. This prevents premature locking into a single approach.

What is the best way to document decision rationale for ambiguous feature requirements?▼

The best way to document decision rationale for ambiguous requirements is to persist the chosen direction and constraints to a structured record. This ensures future traceability of why specific design alternatives were selected or rejected during brainstorming.

Can I generate design alternatives with tradeoffs for situations with ambiguous requirements?▼

Yes, you can generate design alternatives with tradeoffs specifically for situations with ambiguous requirements. The process proposes 2-3 concrete approaches complete with pros, cons, and effort estimates to clarify the decision-making path.

How to evaluate feature explorations using pros, cons, and effort estimates?▼

To evaluate feature explorations, generate 2-3 concrete approaches and assess each using explicit pros, cons, and effort estimates. This structured comparison highlights the tradeoffs of each design direction to guide your final selection.

When do I need to persist a brainstorming decision as a structured record?▼

You need to persist a brainstorming decision as a structured record before writing specifications. Documenting the chosen direction and rationale ensures constraints and decision traceability are maintained for future reference and development alignment.
