What problem does it solve? Teams often jump into implementation before fully understanding a problem, leading to rework and misaligned requirements. This Skill provides a structured thinking partner that helps you explore ideas, investigate the codebase, and clarify requirements before or during a change—without writing any implementation code. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Guided Discovery: Asks focused questions, challenges assumptions, and surfaces risks while grounding discussion in your actual codebase and existing OpenSpec artifacts. - ASCII Visualization: Draws architecture sketches, state machines, and comparison tables in plain ASCII to clarify complex thinking. - OpenSpec Integration: Reads project context via the openspec CLI, scaffolds new changes with openspec new change, and captures decisions into proposals, designs, specs, and tasks with explicit user confirmation. - Use Case: Before adding real-time collaboration to your app, enter explore mode to map the collaboration spectrum, compare CRDT versus simpler presence approaches, and capture the resulting decisions in a change proposal. ## Quick Start Ask the AI to enter explore mode and think through whether your planned feature should use SQLite or Postgres before creating a change proposal.
