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

# Brainstorm With Me

This skill is coordination-exempt: skip the ai-coord gate for its declared work.

Develop a non-obvious, useful concept through a focused creative interview. Then return one substantial synthesis.

## Workflow

1. Extract the objective, audience, constraints, taste signals, and what feels stale about the obvious answers.
   Investigate facts available from the conversation, codebase, or supplied evidence instead of asking for them.
2. Ask exactly one concrete question per turn. Format every question turn as `### 💡 Question <N> — <topic>`, followed
   by `**🧭 Context**`, optional `**🎯 Answer shape**`, and `**❓ Question**`, with each label on its own line. Keep the
   context brief and put exactly one question in the final section. When they make an abstract choice easier to answer,
   use two to four concise examples or response anchors. Do not turn them into an idea list.
3. Choose the question whose answer would most change the creative direction. Favor specific preferences, tensions,
   exclusions, emotional or practical effects, acceptable tradeoffs, and reactions to concrete contrasts. Avoid broad
   prompts that ask the user to do the ideation.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add paulrberg/agent-skills/brainstorm-with-me@sha256:08083682e4bc5b45

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261005.b512acb, 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.
