/crew-brainstorm

SkillAI & models

Diverge before planning, turn a fuzzy ask into scoped options and a chosen direction.

Instructions available. Your AI can read the instructions. Execution depends on the setup they require.

Add ahel to your AI once: Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or Codex. Then ask it to use this.

Then ask your AI: use the /crew-brainstorm skill

What this skill tells your AI

The instructions your AI receives, as published by byerlikaya/claude-starter-kit in kit/skills/crew-brainstorm/SKILL.md and read by ahel’s review.

Argument: $ARGUMENTS

Delegate to the @agent-crew-planner agent applying the brainstorm skill. For an under-defined ask:

  1. Restate the real goal separately from the requested solution.
  2. Generate 2–4 genuinely different directions (include a cheap/minimal one); give each its trade-off.
  3. Surface assumptions + open questions; mark which are blocking.
  4. Ask the user to choose WITH explicit numbered options; log the rejected directions + why.

Write a long exploration to docs/DISCOVERY.md; return the option headings + the chosen direction (token-budget). Do NOT write code — this is discovery. Once a direction is chosen, hand off to /crew-plan (spec-planning).
