Use when the user begins knowledge work with notes, a transcript, or a brain dump, asks for divergent ideas (mode: ideate), or wants options shown in a local browser (mode: visual).

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

# Knowledge brainstorm

## Contract

| Field | Bound contract |
|---|---|
| Trigger | User begins nontrivial knowledge work with notes, a transcript, a brain dump, or a problem to think through (mode: dump); asks to brainstorm, asks what to build, or wants divergent ideas on a subject (mode: ideate); or faces a question genuinely clearer shown than told and approves a local browser view (mode: visual). |
| Authority | Reversible local: writes only `plans/brainstorm-{descriptive-name}.md`, `docs/ideation/<slug>.md` plus `<slug>.html` when `format:html` is given, `.odin/brainstorm/session-<24-hex>` session data, and OS-temp visual probe files; rollback is deleting those files and stopping the named managed process. No remote mutation. |
| Side effect | Reads prior knowledge in `docs/solutions/` and `plans/`; mode visual starts a local key-gated HTTP and WebSocket server with an idle timeout and retains its session directory. No other file, VCS, credential, paid, published, or remote change. |

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add outlinedriven/outline-driven-development/brainstorm@sha256:362be296bd0b144b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.b809cc1, 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.
