SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Early-stage project definition often stalls in unstructured ideation, leaving teams without validated goals or a written record of what was agreed. This Skill guides a structured brainstorming conversation that challenges assumptions, prunes weak ideas, and converges on consensus goals that get scribed into a draft REQUIREMENTS document. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Guided Ideation Workflow: Explores problem spaces in waves, challenges assumptions, and validates consensus before anything is written down, following a defined collaboration playbook. - Requirements Handoff: Once goals converge, hands off to the rad-create-plans skill to scribe a draft REQUIREMENTS doc, records the session, and offers follow-ups like visuals, planning, and dashboard viewing. - Project Memory & Series Support: Detects continuations of prior work, consults past project documents, and recommends splitting oversized ideas into numbered project series. - Use Case: A user says "I'm thinking about building a plugin marketplace." The Skill interviews them about goals and scope, confirms target repos, then produces a draft REQUIREMENTS doc and offers to generate a brainstorm visual and master plan. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to brainstorm and refine goals for a new project idea so it can converge on a draft requirements document.

Frequently Asked Questions about rad-brainstorm

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I brainstorm a new project idea with an AI assistant?▼

Start a conversation describing your problem or idea, and the Skill acts as a collaborative thinking partner. It asks sharp questions, proposes alternative framings, challenges weak assumptions, and converges on agreed goals before scribing a draft REQUIREMENTS document.

How to turn brainstorming notes into a requirements document?▼

Once the conversation converges on consensus goals, the Skill offers to hand off to the rad-create-plans skill in requirements mode. That handoff scribes the draft REQUIREMENTS doc and records the session automatically.

Can brainstorming continue a previous project or series?▼

Yes. When the conversation signals a continuation, the Skill invokes rad-project for live status and reads project-memory guidance to consult past REQUIREMENTS and MASTER-PLAN documents. It can also split oversized ideas into a numbered project series.

Does the brainstorming skill write code?▼

No. The Skill explicitly states it is a brainstorming assistant, not a coding assistant. It drives conversations toward consensus goals and a draft REQUIREMENTS doc, and never generates code unless the user explicitly deviates from the workflow.

When should a project be split into a series?▼

Consider a series when an idea spans multiple subsystems, has five or more independent goals, or is described in explicit stages. Each series project gets its own REQUIREMENTS doc with series context and dependency links to siblings.
