tessl review fix ./plugins/sdd/skills/brainstorm/SKILL.mdHelp turn ideas into fully formed designs and specs through natural collaborative dialogue.
Start by understanding the current project context, then ask questions one at a time to refine the idea. Once you understand what you're building, present the design in small sections (200-300 words), checking after each section whether it looks right so far.
Understanding the idea:
Exploring approaches:
Presenting the design:
if user provided draft specification file, then update it directly, if not then use /add-task skill to create task file for target approach
Important: In specification file, write target approach in sections, in ## Initial User Prompt -> ### Requirements section, before ## Description section. Description will be filled in future stage.
After filling task file, suggest use to run /clear and then /plan-task <task-file-path> to refine the task file.
