generate-creative-ideasCreative problem-solving and ideation using SCAMPER, First Principles, Random Word, and AI-optimized techniques.
Generate Creative Ideas is an agent skill from kapishdima/soundcn. Creative problem-solving and ideation using SCAMPER, First Principles, Random Word, and AI-optimized techniques. Use when generating ideas, breaking creative blocks, brainstorming alternatives, or innovating.
Its SKILL.md is about 2.9k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 17 other files, including reference files (for example `.claude-plugin/plugin.json`, `SOURCES.md` and `references/content-ideation.md`).
It sits in Agent Workflows, covering Brainstorming. The repository describes itself as: 700+ curated UI sound effects for modern web apps. Browse, preview, and install sounds with a single command. Free and open source. The licence is MIT.
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7cbfbb3. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
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.
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Generate Creative Ideas loads about 2.9k tokens when it runs, and up to ~19k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 58 tokens; SKILL.md has 1,025 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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.
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); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

|---|---|
| SCAMPER | 7 lenses: Substitute, Combine, Adapt, Modify, Put to other use, Eliminate, Reverse |
| Random Word | Random noun -> list attributes -> force connections to problem |
| Reverse Brainstorm | "How to make it worse?" -> Invert each idea |
| First Principles | Strip to fundamentals -> Rebuild from scratch |
| Six Hats | 6 perspectives: Facts, Feelings, Risks, Benefits, Ideas, Process |
| HMW | Reframe as "How Might We [verb] for [user] so that [outcome]?" |
| Morphological Box | Parameters x Variations matrix -> Combine systematically |
| Analogies | "How does [other domain] solve this?" |
| Assumptions | List assumptions -> Challenge/invert each |
| Forced Connections | Combine 2 unrelated concepts |
| Jobs to be Done | "When [situation], I want [motivation], so I can [outcome]" |
| Oblique Strategies | Random creative prompts to break deadlocks |

When ideating for blog posts, videos, courses, or social media:
Pillar = Core theme that reflects expertise + audience needs
Example: Excel -> [Formulas, Data Viz, Automation, Tips & Tricks, Career]| Source | Questions |
|---|---|
| Pain Points | What frustrates them most? |
| Questions | What do they repeatedly ask? |
| Gaps | What's poorly explained by competitors? |
| Wishes | What do they wish existed? |
| Mistakes | What common errors do they make? |
Apply creativity techniques TO the content pillars:
[ ] Search demand? (keyword research)
[ ] Real audience pain point? (comments, surveys)
[ ] Can I add unique value? (gap analysis)
[ ] Fits my pillars? (strategy alignment)
[ ] Would I click this? (title/thumbnail test)
[ ] Can be repurposed? (1 piece -> 5+ formats)Blog post -> YouTube video -> Shorts/Reels -> Social posts -> Email -> Course moduleDetails: content-ideation.md
Shape raw ideas into actionable concepts:
[Generate] -> [Cluster] -> [Evaluate] -> [Develop] -> [Validate] -> [Execute]IDEA: [Name]
TAGLINE: [One compelling sentence]
PROBLEM: [What pain it solves]
SOLUTION: [How it works - 2-3 sentences]
TARGET USER: [Who benefits]
KEY INSIGHT: [The "aha" behind this]
EFFORT: [S / M / L]
BIGGEST RISK: [What could go wrong]
QUICKEST TEST: [How to validate cheaply]
NEXT STEP: [One concrete action]Details: idea-pipeline.md

|---|---|
| Ask AI HOW to think, not WHAT to think | Process prompts > product prompts |
| Human-first ideation preserves diversity | User brainstorms first, THEN AI expands |
| LLMs match average creativity (52nd percentile) | AI is a partner, not a replacement |
| Homogenization effect (g ~ -0.86) | Use Divergence Guard actively |
| "Creative Scar" -- creativity drops after AI withdrawal | Don't outsource all creative thinking |
| Tree of Thoughts: 74% vs CoT 49% | Use ToT for complex creative tasks |
| Multi-LLM collaboration enhances originality | Stack techniques, vary approaches |
| Only 0.28% of LLM ideas reach top 10% human creativity | Push past first outputs aggressively |
| Don't | Do Instead |
|---|---|
| "Give me ideas for X" | "Give me 10 ideas for X that would surprise an expert" |
| Accept first outputs | Push past 2-3 rounds; first ideas are "greatest hits" |
| Use AI before thinking | Brainstorm independently first, then expand with AI |
| "Be creative" | Use specific technique (SCAMPER, constraints, personas) |

Creative problem-solving and ideation using SCAMPER, First Principles, Random Word, and AI-optimized techniques. Generate Creative Ideas is an agent skill from kapishdima/soundcn. Creative problem-solving and ideation using SCAMPER, First Principles, Random Word, and AI-optimized techniques.
Generate Creative Ideas fits situations like: generating ideas; breaking creative blocks; brainstorming alternatives.
Run `npx skills add kapishdima/soundcn --skill generate-creative-ideas -a claude-code`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/generate-creative-ideas in kapishdima/soundcn) into .claude/skills/generate-creative-ideas in your project. Claude Code loads it when a task matches its description.
Run `npx skills add kapishdima/soundcn --skill generate-creative-ideas -a codex`. Or copy the skill folder (.agents/skills/generate-creative-ideas in kapishdima/soundcn) into .agents/skills/generate-creative-ideas in your project. Codex loads it when a task matches its description.
Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot and OpenCode also load SKILL.md folders. With the skills CLI, run `npx skills add kapishdima/soundcn --skill generate-creative-ideas -a cursor` (or -a gemini-cli, github-copilot or opencode for the others). To copy it by hand, put the folder in .cursor/skills/generate-creative-ideas, .gemini/skills/generate-creative-ideas, .github/skills/generate-creative-ideas and .opencode/skills/generate-creative-ideas in your project.
SKILL.md names no scripts, command-line tools or credentials: Generate Creative Ideas is instructions for the agent only.
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.
Our automated static check of SKILL.md found no risky patterns, such as piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files or hidden Unicode. It is not a guarantee. Review the folder before installing.
Generate Creative Ideas is published under the MIT licence (the repository's licence). It allows redistribution, so the full SKILL.md is shown on this page.
About 2.9k tokens (SKILL.md is roughly 11k characters). Agents keep only the skill's name and description in context until a task matches; then they load SKILL.md in full. Its references folder adds about 16k tokens, read only when the agent opens those files.
Skills that share tags, products or a category with Generate Creative Ideas: Brainstorming (xpinjection/test-driven-spring-boot, 112 stars), LLM Council (gcpdev/llm-council-skill, 461 stars), Typesafe AI (OpenAgentsInc/openagents, 455 stars) and Yao Meta Skill (yaojingang/yao-meta-skill, 2.7k stars).
