name: brainstorm
description: "Use when a person wants to think an idea through and keep the discussion: a feature, a tool choice, an architecture question, before a plan or without one, with the agent through an interview. Produces a board in aiview holding the decisions, the diagrams and what was investigated. Not for a swarm of seats working it (brainswarm), not for an implementation plan and not for bug fixes."

# Brainstorm

**The discussion lives in one Markdown file from the first question, never in chat.**
`YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>.brainstorm.md`, through the `aiview` skill: kind `brainstorm`, tags = topic, group = the topic. With a
roadmap, the slot's slug is a tag. A resuming
session reads the board before asking anything again.

**Run the `interview` skill** and write each
answer into the board as it lands.

**The person asks for a swarm of seats to brainstorm or debate it**: the `brainswarm` skill
runs it on this board.

The board, in this order:

- **Human part**, written as the `aiview` skill's `references/human-part.md` says, refreshed at each settled decision.
- **Strategy**, a brainswarm only.
- **Decisions table**: the row core of the `interview` skill's `references/decisions.md`, plus `Log` (the entry `Q7`). The interview's `experiments` option is its first row.
- **Context being built on.**
- **Diagrams**, through the `write-diagrams` skill, drawn during the questions.
- **What ran**: the recipes the experiments hand back.
- **Interview log**, or a brainswarm's log, last: per question, verbatim, the options and the recommendation, then the answer as given.

**No code in the repository for the thing being discussed.**

**Close** by saying what is agreed and what is open.
