The one-page constraint forces clarity and prioritization. ## When to Use - Pitching a solution approach to stakeholders for buy-in - Aligning cross-functional teams on what you're building and why - Documenting solution intent before detailed PRD writing - Comparing multiple solution options at a high level - Communicating product direction to leadership ## When NOT to Use - Stakeholders are aligned and engineering needs the full specification -> use `deliver-prd`; the brief pitches, the PRD specifies - The problem is not yet framed or agreed -> use `define-problem-statement` first - You are recording a decision already made -> use `develop-adr` (technical) or `develop-design-rationale` (design) - You need to compare strategic options across the whole business model -> use `foundation-lean-canvas` ## Instructions When asked to create a solution brief, follow these steps: 1. **Recap the Problem** Summarize the problem in 2-3 sentences maximum.

create-brief

Co-author a product brief (docs/product/brief.md) with the human through a structured interview, then quality-gate it against best practices. The brief is the single human-authored input that anchors every scope / YAGNI decision the team makes — in both human and autonomous modes. It anchors the Requirement Definition interview (the Requirements Analyst reads it first and reconciles requirements against it) and, in autonomous mode, is the Product Owner's source of truth. Use when no brief exists yet, when a brief is thin or unmeasurable, or when the operator runs `/create-brief`.
