Refine Ideas Into Validated Designs
Rough ideas often turn into weak plans when teams skip discovery. This skill guides Claude, Codex, or Claude Code through focused questions, option comparison, and staged design validation.

Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Review the Skillstore skill "brainstorming" from https://skillstore.io/skills/dyai2025-brainstorming.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/dyai2025-brainstorming/manifest. Verify the artifact. Stop and obtain explicit user consent before installing or changing files.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "brainstorming". We need a better onboarding flow for new users.
Expected outcome:
The assistant asks about target users, success criteria, and constraints. It then presents options such as guided setup, progressive onboarding, or checklist-based onboarding.
Using "brainstorming". Should we use events or direct API calls for this workflow?
Expected outcome:
The assistant compares event-driven, synchronous, and hybrid designs. It explains trade-offs in reliability, complexity, latency, and debugging.
Using "brainstorming". Here is the chosen approach. Help me confirm the design before coding.
Expected outcome:
The assistant presents architecture, components, data flow, error handling, and testing in short sections. It asks for validation after each section.

Skillstore Score
Why this score Evidence Confidence: MediumWhat You Can Build
Shape a new product feature
Turn an initial feature idea into goals, constraints, alternatives, and a validated design direction.
Compare engineering architectures
Explore multiple technical approaches before choosing the simplest design that meets the requirements.
Prepare implementation planning
Confirm the design in sections before moving into a detailed build plan or isolated worktree.
Try These Prompts
Use the brainstorming skill to help me refine this idea: [describe the idea]. Ask one question at a time.
Use the brainstorming skill to propose two or three approaches for [problem]. Include trade-offs and complexity for each option.
Use the brainstorming skill to turn this direction into a design. Present it in short sections and pause for validation after each section: [context].
Use the brainstorming skill to check whether this design is ready for implementation planning: [design summary]. Identify missing decisions before planning.
Best Practices
- Give the assistant clear context about users, goals, constraints, and success criteria.
- Choose between proposed approaches before asking for detailed implementation planning.
- Validate each design section and revise earlier assumptions when new constraints appear.
Avoid
- Do not use it to skip requirements gathering and jump directly into code.
- Do not ask for every possible approach when two or three options are enough.
- Do not force a linear process when new information requires revisiting earlier phases.
