What it does

Osborn is an agent skill from fainshare/Liam-Skills. 发散思维(太虚一转·散怀):想法量、SCAMPER、Stakeholder轮转。触发词: 发散, 开脑洞, 奥斯本. Divergent thinking (太虚一转·散怀): volume of ideas, SCAMPER, stakeholder rotation → idea-pool.md. Use when user says "发散", "开脑洞", "奥斯本", "osborn". 即便用户未明确说"用 osborn",当对话出现以下信号时也应主动建议使用:方案只有一条路想扩空间、 团队讨论在同一批想法里打转、方向定了但觉得可能有更好的选择、用户说"还有别的思路吗""帮我想想还有什么可能"。 不要等用户说出触发词才启动——识别意图比匹配关键词更重要。

Its SKILL.md is about 2.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 10 other files, including reference files (for example `evals/dev-cases.json`, `references/comparisons.md` and `references/complete-run-benchmark.md`). Compatibility notes: {"runtime":"claude-code","filesystem":"required","network":"not-required"}

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Brainstorming.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Brainstorming

Example prompts

  • “osborn”
  • “用 osborn”
  • “还有别的思路吗”
  • “/osborn”

Requirements

  • Compatibility (from SKILL.md): {"runtime":"claude-code","filesystem":"required","network":"not-required"}
  • Pre-approved tools (allowed-tools): Write, Read, Bash

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. 发散主题:要扩展什么?(一句话能说清)
  2. 问题类型判定:三信号渐进式分类(见 P0.1)
  3. 第一性分解:将主题分解到不可再分的基础要素(见 P0.2)
  4. 边界:发散范围、约束条件(哪些维度要扩,哪些不在范围内)
  5. 问题空间维度轴:定义 5-7 个评估维度(由 AI 提议,用户确认)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 931ecc9. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves these tools, so the agent can use them without asking each time:

    • Write
    • Read
    • Bash

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are yaml).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

  • Compatibility

    {"runtime":"claude-code","filesystem":"required","network":"not-required"}

    From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Osborn loads about 2.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~8.6k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 86 tokens; SKILL.md has 634 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~86
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~2.5k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~8.6k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check: notes

The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.

  • NotePre-approves every shell command (allowed-tools: Bash)SKILL.md
    allowed-tools: Write, Read, Bash

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 634 words (~2,516 tokens).
