name	brainstorm
description	Explore requirements and determine extraction type for Hyper-Extract. Use when user says: "design template", "extract data", "create extraction", "unsure which type to use". Trigger: User needs help deciding extraction type (model/list/set/graph/hypergraph). Skip: User already knows the type and wants specific design help.

Brainstorm: Requirements Exploration

Workflow

1. Clarify input/output
2. Discuss type details
3. Output design draft → Pass to designer

Type Determination

Decision Tree

Need to model relationships?
├─ No → Record types
│   ├─ Single object → model
│   ├─ Ordered list → list
│   └─ Deduplicated set → set
└─ Yes → Graph types
    ├─ Binary (A→B) → graph
    └─ Multi-entity (A+B+C→D)
        ├─ Flat list → hypergraph (simple)
        └─ Role groups → hypergraph (nested)

After graph:
├─ + time dimension → temporal_graph
├─ + space dimension → spatial_graph
└─ + both → spatio_temporal_graph

Quick Reference

Intent	Type
Summary/card	model
Ordered items	list
Deduplicated entities	set
Binary relations	graph
Multi-party events	hypergraph
+ time	temporal_graph
+ space	spatial_graph
+ time + space	spatio_temporal_graph

Discussion Questions

For All Types

• What is the input source?
• What to extract?
• Key fields needed?

For Graph Types

• Entity types and granularity?
• Relation types (predefined or custom)?
• Multi-type nodes?

For Hypergraph

• Simple or nested grouping?
• How many semantic groups?
• Group names?

For Temporal/Spatial

• Time/space on edge or node?
• Format handling?

Output: Design Draft

For Record Types (model/list/set)

## Type: [model/list/set]

## Fields
| Field | Type | Required | Description |
|-------|------|----------|-------------|
| [name] | str | yes | ... |

## Notes
[Any special requirements]

For Graph Types (graph/hypergraph/temporal/spatial)

## Type: [graph/hypergraph/temporal/spatial]

## Entities
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| name | str | Entity name |
| category | str | Entity type |

## Relations
| Field | Type | Description |
|-------|------|-------------|
| [field] | str/list | ... |

## Identifiers
- entity_id: name
- relation_id: '{...}'
- relation_members: [...]

## Notes
[Any special requirements]

Type-Specific Fields

Type	Additional Fields
hypergraph	Participants or Groups
temporal_graph	time_field
spatial_graph	location_field
spatio_temporal_graph	time_field + location_field

Pass to Designer

After brainstorm, invoke the appropriate designer:

• model/list/set → record-designer
• graph/hypergraph/temporal/spatial → graph-designer
