brainstorming SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

brainstorming from fusengine/claude-plugins is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned

mdr add fusengine/claude-plugins/brainstorming@git:20260904.5f1d30f

Pins git:20260904.5f1d30f in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Use when creating a feature/component or adding functionality. Fires BEFORE APEX Analyze to refine requirements via structured questioning.

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

<objective>
Brainstorming runs a design-first, no-code-before-approval process ahead of any non-trivial feature, component, or behavior change: explore project context, ask clarifying questions one at a time, diverge to 6-8 approaches via a named technique before converging on 2-3 with a trade-off table, present the design for explicit approval, save it to `docs/plans/`, then hand off to APEX Analyze along with the research already gathered (so Analyze doesn't repeat it).

Skip it entirely for trivial fixes, typos, or simple renames -- those go straight to APEX.
</objective>

# Brainstorming Skill

**Design-first approach: no code before design approval.**

---

## Agent Workflow (MANDATORY)

Before ANY brainstorming session, spawn agents in parallel, one `Agent` call each with a `name`:

1. **fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase** - Understand project context, patterns, constraints
2. **fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert** - Fetch best practices and documentation
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add fusengine/claude-plugins/brainstorming@sha256:46f7199d6777aefc

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260904.5f1d30f, 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.
