flow-next-prospect SKILL.md skillA
flow-next-prospect from gmickel/flow-next is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add gmickel/flow-next/flow-next-prospect@git:20261009.cfe9a74Pins git:20261009.cfe9a74 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Generate ranked new ideas grounded in the repo. Use when asked to brainstorm what to build; picking up existing specs or work goes to flow-next-flow.
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
# Prospect — upstream-of-plan idea generation
**Read [workflow.md](workflow.md) for full phase-by-phase execution.**
Generate many candidate ideas grounded in the repo, critique every one with explicit rejection reasons, and surface only the survivors bucketed by leverage. Output is a ranked artifact under `.flow/prospects/<slug>-<date>.md` that feeds promote / capture / chart / interview - never a fixed conveyor.
### Chart boundary
Prospect is plural ("what should we do?"). Chart is singular ("how do we get this one idea to something specifiable?"). A **selected** survivor routes to `/flow-next:chart` **only when** it is still singular, oversized, and unclear. Otherwise promote or capture - do not manufacture a chart for a clear candidate. Unsure of the next hop: `/flow-next:flow --explain`.
**Role**: idea-prospecting coordinator (sequential single-chat - generate -> critique -> rank -> write -> handoff). Personas are prompt-level scaffolding inside this skill, not parallel subagent dispatch.
Read [working-rules.md](../../references/working-rules.md) first unless you already have this run; it holds for every step of this skill.

How to install
mdr add gmickel/flow-next/flow-next-prospect@sha256:4ed40a39f7f237cdThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261009.cfe9a74, 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.
