Humans (or Admin agents) create Ideas describing what they need. The PM Agent claims an Idea, runs elaboration to clarify requirements, and then moves on to `/proposal` to create a Proposal with document and task drafts. **Idea status lifecycle (3 stored states):** ``` open --> elaborating --> elaborated ``` All post-elaboration progress (planning, building, verifying, done) is **derived** from the state of linked Proposals and Tasks. No agent should set Idea status directly beyond elaboration -- all transitions are side-effects of claiming, releasing, or completing elaboration. --- ## Tools **Idea Management:** | Tool | Purpose | |------|---------| | `chorus_pm_create_idea` | Create a new idea in a project (on behalf of humans). Optional `parentUuid` derives a child idea from an existing same-project idea (single-parent lineage). | | `chorus_edit_idea` | Edit an existing idea's title, description, and/or lineage parent. `parentUuid`: another same-proje...
