brainstorm SKILL.md skillA

brainstorm from cliver-project/cliver is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add cliver-project/cliver/brainstorm@git:20261025.d71167b

Pins git:20261025.d71167b in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Turn ideas into validated design specs through collaborative dialogue before implementation. Use when facing complex tasks with design decisions, multiple valid approaches, or multi-file changes.

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

Help turn ideas into fully formed designs through natural collaborative dialogue.

## Hard Gate

Do NOT write any implementation code, scaffold any project, or take any implementation action until you have presented a design and the user has approved it. This applies to EVERY task regardless of perceived simplicity.

## Process

You MUST follow these steps in order. Use `TodoWrite` to create a checklist from these steps and track your progress.

### Step 1: Explore Project Context

Before asking questions, understand the current state:
- Read relevant files (`Read`), check current working directory structure (`LS`)
- Search for related code or topics: `Grep`
- Look for existing docs, README, CLAUDE.md, AGENT.md or design files

### Step 2: Ask Clarifying Questions

Ask questions **one at a time**. Do not batch multiple questions.

- Prefer multiple choice when possible — easier to answer than open-ended
- Focus on understanding: purpose, constraints, success criteria
- If the project is too large for a single spec, help decompose into sub-projects first

### Step 3: Propose 2-3 Approaches

Once you understand the requirements, propose 2-3 different approaches:
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add cliver-project/cliver/brainstorm@sha256:deaff0648f335a39

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261025.d71167b, 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.
