# /ccc-brainstorm — Design-First Ideation Gate Before writing code or specs, generate 3 distinct alternatives. Forces designer-mode thinking and surfaces tradeoffs early. No code is written during this skill — only decisions are made. ## Triggers - `/ccc-brainstorm` or `/brainstorm` - "how should I build X" - "which approach should I take" - "I'm torn between X and Y" - "help me decide on [auth / DB / design system / API shape]" - "explore options for" - "what are my choices for" ## When NOT to Use - Fixing a bug with an obvious solution (use `/ccc-review` or just fix it) - Well-known patterns where the answer is already standard (e.g., "how do I add a .env file") - Tasks with a single correct answer (use `/ccc-plan` directly) - Mid-implementation pivots where switching costs exceed the decision value ## Process ### Step 1 — Capture the question If no argument provided, call `AskUserQuestion`: ```yaml question: "What are we brainstorming?" options: - label: "🆕 New feature design" description: "You have a feature idea and want to explore approaches before writing any code." - label: "🔀 Choosing between approaches" description: "You have 2–3 candidates and need to compare them rigorously." - label: "🎨 UI/UX decision" description: "Layout, component library, interaction model, visual system." - label: "🏗️ Architecture choice" description: "DB schema, service boundary, auth strategy, data model." - label: "✏️ Free-form — I'll describe it"
