Shape vague or multi-subsystem asks into requirements. Size first if unsized.
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 Turn the PM's intent into a design spec through collaborative dialogue. The PM decides what to build; the EM shapes feasibility, flags constraints, proposes approaches. Output: a committed spec that feeds `coordinator:plan`. **Announce at start:** "Using brainstorming to explore the design before we plan implementation." **When NOT to invoke:** a well-scoped next step on a known shape goes straight to `coordinator:plan`, or just do it if trivial. Brainstorming is for genuine ambiguity in shape — if the request would take 2+ rounds of "what is this even?" clarifying questions, it applies. **vs. `coordinator:shape`:** siblings, not twins. Brainstorming is for *not knowing what to build* (produces a solution artifact). `shape` is for *converging on a problem the PM already holds*. PM wants confirmation you understood a problem → `shape`; PM doesn't know what to build → `brainstorming`. Both terminate in `coordinator:plan`. <HARD-GATE> Once started, do NOT invoke any implementation skill, write code, scaffold a project, or dispatch an executor until the spec is written and PM-approved. The only exit is a completed spec that …

How to install
mdr add dbc-oduffy/coordinator-claude/brainstorming@sha256:1d61196a993e98c2The 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.
