Creative ideation and structured brainstorming with multiple methodologies.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Brainstorming Skill
Generate ideas and explore topics using structured brainstorming methodologies.
## Usage
```
/brainstorming [mode] [topic]
```
## Modes
- **ideate** (default) - Free brainstorming with categorized ideas
- **mindmap** - Structured mind map tree
- **swot** - SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats)
- **sixhats** - Six Thinking Hats method
- **scamper** - SCAMPER creative thinking method
## Examples
```
/brainstorming ideate How to improve developer onboarding
/brainstorming mindmap Microservice architecture decisions
/brainstorming swot Migrating from monolith to microservices
/brainstorming sixhats Should we adopt TypeScript?
/brainstorming scamper Improve our CI/CD pipeline
```
## Output
Structured ideas with categories, priorities, and actionable next steps.
The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
A 17 of 17 checks passed. Fixed automatic checks with no AI involved, so the same checks give the same answer every run.
