Brainstorm

Interactive Requirements Discovery

Context Framework Note: This file provides behavioral instructions for Claude Code when users type /brainstorm patterns. This is NOT an executable command - it's a context trigger that activates the behavioral patterns defined below.

Triggers

• Ambiguous project ideas requiring structured exploration
• Requirements discovery and specification development needs
• Concept validation and feasibility assessment requests
• Cross-session brainstorming and iterative refinement scenarios

Context Trigger Pattern

/brainstorm [topic/idea] [--strategy systematic|agile|enterprise] [--depth shallow|normal|deep] [--parallel]

Usage: Type this pattern in your Claude Code conversation to activate brainstorming behavioral mode with systematic exploration and multi-persona coordination.

Behavioral Flow

1. Explore: Transform ambiguous ideas through Socratic dialogue and systematic questioning
2. Analyze: Coordinate multiple personas for domain expertise and comprehensive analysis
3. Validate: Apply feasibility assessment and requirement validation across domains
4. Specify: Generate concrete specifications with cross-session persistence capabilities
5. Handoff: Create actionable briefs ready for implementation or further development

Key behaviors:

• Multi-persona orchestration across architecture, analysis, frontend, backend, security domains
• Advanced MCP coordination with intelligent routing for specialized analysis
• Systematic execution with progressive dialogue enhancement and parallel exploration
• Cross-session persistence with comprehensive requirements discovery documentation

Interview Discipline

이 세 행동 규칙은 mattpocock/skills (MIT)의 grill-me 스킬에서 흡수되었다. 다중 페르소나 분석을 보강하는 대화 규율 이며, 새 스킬을 만들지 않고 /brainstorm에 통합되어 있다.

1. 한 번에 한 질문 (One question at a time) — 사용자의 답변을 받기 전에는 다음 질문으로 넘어가지 않는다. 여러 질문을 묶어서 던지지 않는다.
2. 추천답 동반 (Recommended answer per question) — 각 질문마다 합리적인 추천 답변을 함께 제시한다. 사용자가 "yes"만으로 진행할 수 있게 하여 대화 비용을 낮춘다.
3. 코드 우선 탐색 (Codebase first, ask second) — 코드베이스 탐색으로 답할 수 있는 질문은 사용자에게 묻지 말고 직접 grep/Read로 답을 찾는다.

MCP Integration

• Sequential MCP: Complex multi-step reasoning for systematic exploration and validation
• Context7 MCP: Framework-specific feasibility assessment and pattern analysis
• Magic MCP: UI/UX feasibility and design system integration analysis
• Playwright MCP: User experience validation and interaction pattern testing
• Morphllm MCP: Large-scale content analysis and pattern-based transformation
• Serena MCP: Cross-session persistence, memory management, and project context enhancement

Tool Coordination

• Read/Write/Edit: Requirements documentation and specification generation
• TodoWrite: Progress tracking for complex multi-phase exploration
• Task: Advanced delegation for parallel exploration paths and multi-agent coordination
• WebSearch: Market research, competitive analysis, and technology validation
• sequentialthinking: Structured reasoning for complex requirements analysis

Key Patterns

• Socratic Dialogue: Question-driven exploration → systematic requirements discovery
• Multi-Domain Analysis: Cross-functional expertise → comprehensive feasibility assessment
• Progressive Coordination: Systematic exploration → iterative refinement and validation
• Specification Generation: Concrete requirements → actionable implementation briefs

Examples

Systematic Product Discovery

/brainstorm "AI-powered project management tool" --strategy systematic --depth deep
# Multi-persona analysis: architect (system design), analyzer (feasibility), project-manager (requirements)
# Sequential MCP provides structured exploration framework

Agile Feature Exploration

/brainstorm "real-time collaboration features" --strategy agile --parallel
# Parallel exploration paths with frontend, backend, and security personas
# Context7 and Magic MCP for framework and UI pattern analysis

Enterprise Solution Validation

/brainstorm "enterprise data analytics platform" --strategy enterprise --validate
# Comprehensive validation with security, devops, and architect personas
# Serena MCP for cross-session persistence and enterprise requirements tracking

Cross-Session Refinement

/brainstorm "mobile app monetization strategy" --depth normal
# Serena MCP manages cross-session context and iterative refinement
# Progressive dialogue enhancement with memory-driven insights

Boundaries

Will:

• Transform ambiguous ideas into concrete specifications through systematic exploration
• Coordinate multiple personas and MCP servers for comprehensive analysis
• Provide cross-session persistence and progressive dialogue enhancement

Will Not:

• Make implementation decisions without proper requirements discovery
• Override user vision with prescriptive solutions during exploration phase
• Bypass systematic exploration for complex multi-domain projects
