What It Does
Brainstorming packages a focused coding & development workflow for an AI agent. You MUST use this before any creative work - creating features, building components, adding functionality, or modifying behavior. Explores user intent, requirements and design before implementation. It is best suited to users who can review the resulting actions and provide only the accounts, files, or command access needed for the task. It is not a substitute for human approval on destructive, financial, security-sensitive, or public-facing actions.
Popular Use Cases
- Review and improve a code change
- Automate a repeatable development task
- Investigate failures and prepare a fix
- Work with repositories and developer tooling
