What it does

Brainstorming is an agent skill from feiskyer/codex-settings. 把尚有关键取舍的功能或系统想法收敛为设计。用于用户要求讨论方案或需求尚未明确时;不用于 bug 修复、配置修改或照已有方案实现。

Its SKILL.md is about 240 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 10 other files, including scripts (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `scripts/helper.js` and `scripts/start-server.sh`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Brainstorming. The repository describes itself as: Curated skills, profiles, and config templates that supercharge Codex CLI — multi-model, deep research, image gen & browser automation. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Brainstorming

Example prompts

  • “/brainstorming”

Requirements

  • Node.js
  • A Bash shell

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit d7f6570. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 5 files in scripts/ (JavaScript and Shell), which the agent can run.

    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.

Context cost

Brainstorming loads about 241 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 20 tokens; SKILL.md has 24 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~20
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~241

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 passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

头脑风暴:从想法到设计

把尚未明确的目标、约束和关键取舍收敛成足以指导实现的设计。沿用用户已有的决定,不重新审批已认可的方案。

范围与完成条件

  • 用户要求先讨论、先审方案或暂不实现时,以设计交付为终点;未经认可不写实现代码、不搭脚手架。
  • 用户已要求实现时,只澄清会实质改变范围、成本或结果的未决问题;普通、可逆的选择沿用项目惯例并说明假设,不额外插入一次完整设计审批。
  • 设计明确且实现已获授权后,继续完成实现及对应验证,不在第一版代码或计划完成时提前交回。

收敛设计

先读取与当前设计有关的代码和文档,能查到的事实不问用户。只有历史决定影响当前取舍时才追溯提交。

聚焦目的、约束和成功标准,优先问最影响设计的一个问题。存在真实替代方案时比较权衡并给出推荐;路径明确时不为凑数提供多个方案。

设计深度随复杂度伸缩:简单工具可以是几句话;复杂系统说明相关的边界、数据流、失败处理和验证方式。多个子系统需要分阶段时,说明依赖与构建顺序,不擅自把用户要求的完整交付缩成第一个子项目。

需要持久规格时写入 docs/specs/YYYY-MM-DD-<主题>-design.md,优先使用用户指定的位置。短小、一次性的设计可以直接在回复中给出,不强制创建文件。只在用户明确要求时创建 Git commit。

交付前消除会影响实施的缺口、矛盾和歧义。复杂规格可用 spec-document-reviewer-prompt.md 做审阅;只有已获授权且当前环境支持时才委派独立审阅。

保留能解释设计的约束和取舍,避免未请求的功能、抽象或顺手重构。

可视化伴侣

仅在布局、线框图或空间关系更适合视觉讨论时提出使用浏览器伴侣。用户同意后再读 visual-companion.md 并启动;拒绝则继续纯文本。话题涉及 UI 本身不构成启动理由。

Can I use Brainstorming in Cursor, Gemini CLI or GitHub Copilot?

Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add feiskyer/codex-settings --skill brainstorming -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/brainstorming, .gemini/skills/brainstorming, .github/skills/brainstorming and .opencode/skills/brainstorming in your project.

What does Brainstorming need to run?

Going by SKILL.md and its folder, Brainstorming needs JavaScript and a shell for the scripts in its folder. Our summary lists: Node.js; A Bash shell.

Does Brainstorming access the network?

SKILL.md contains no URLs. Any network use would come from the scripts or tools the agent runs. This is read from the text; nothing was executed.
