Idea Capture
Capture raw ideas as structured artifacts for backlog consideration.
When to Use
- User has new feature concept
- Stakeholder request needs documentation
- Quick capture without full refinement
Quick Reference
Workflow
- Detect related business module (dynamic discovery)
- Load business context from
docs/business-features/ - Gather idea details (problem, value, scope)
- Create artifact using template
- Save to
team-artifacts/ideas/ - Quick Validation (MANDATORY) - 2-3 sanity check questions
- Suggest next:
/refine {idea-file}
Output
-
Path:
team-artifacts/ideas/{YYMMDD}-{role}-idea-{slug}.md -

Template
See: team-artifacts/templates/idea-template.md
Quick Validation (MANDATORY)
After creating idea artifact, ask 2-3 quick questions to validate before handoff.
Question Selection (pick 2-3 most relevant)
| Category | Question |
|---|---|
| Problem Clarity | "Is the problem statement clear? What's the root cause?" |
| Value | "Who benefits most? What's the business impact if NOT built?" |
| Scope | "Is this one feature or multiple? Should it be split?" |
| Timing | "Is this urgent or can it wait? Any deadline drivers?" |
| Alternatives | "Any existing solutions or workarounds today?" |
Process
- Select 2-3 questions based on idea complexity
- Use
AskUserQuestionwith concrete options - Update idea artifact with any clarifications
- Skip validation only for trivial/obvious ideas (single sentence, obvious need)
Validation Output
Add to idea artifact under ## Quick Validation section:
## Quick Validation
**Validated:** {date}
- **Problem clarity:** {Confirmed/Clarified: notes}
- **Value confirmed:** {Yes/Needs discussion}
- **Scope check:** {Single feature/Needs splitting}
Notes
- Always plan and break many small todo tasks
- Always add a final review todo task to validate the captured idea
- Quick validation is MANDATORY unless idea is trivial
Task Planning Notes
- Always plan and break many small todo tasks
- Always add a final review todo task to review the works done at the end to find any fix or enhancement needed
