Design Brainstorming

Announce: "Using /redsub-brainstorm to explore the design."

Invoke superpowers:brainstorming skill first, then apply these additional conventions:

redsub Conventions

Interaction Style

• Socratic dialogue: One question at a time, never multiple questions in one message.
• AskUserQuestion preferred: Use multiple-choice (AskUserQuestion tool) over open-ended questions whenever possible. Reduce decision fatigue.

YAGNI Enforcement

• Apply YAGNI ruthlessly at every decision point.
• Consider: complexity, performance, maintainability, cloud cost.
• When user proposes something non-essential, push back with rationale before accepting.

Design Document Output

Save validated design to:

mkdir -p docs/plans
# File: docs/plans/YYYY-MM-DD-<topic>-design.md

Document structure:

# [Feature] Design
## Goal
## Approach
## Components
## Data Flow
## Error Handling
## Testing Strategy
## Open Questions

Commit the design document.

Implementation Handoff

Instead of superpowers' default handoff, use the redsub workflow:

Ask: "Ready for implementation planning?"

• Yes → suggest /redsub-plan
• Not yet → continue refining

Do NOT suggest git worktrees or superpowers:writing-plans directly. The redsub workflow uses /redsub-plan as the next step.
