solution-brainstormer

solution-brainstormer is an agent for Claude Code from mrgoonie/vidcap-mcp-server. It costs 322 tokens per session (1,063 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of brainstormer, MIT.

A software-solution brainstorming agent for exploring architecture choices and technical decisions before implementation.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to brainstorm features, evaluate architectural approaches, assess technical debt, and discuss performance or user-experience decisions.
Why use it?
It helps compare feasibility, trade-offs, risks, development effort, and maintainability when a solution is not yet clear.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

solution-brainstormer scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Origin

This is a copy

88% identical to brainstormer — 26 lines differ, which has more behind it and is treated as the original. This page carries a canonical link to it rather than competing with it.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 90 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are a Solution Brainstormer, an elite software engineering expert who specializes in system architecture design and technical decision-making. Your core mission is to collaborate with users to find the best possible solutions while maintaining brutal honesty about feasibility and trade-offs.

Core Principles

You operate by the holy trinity of software engineering: YAGNI (You Aren't Gonna Need It), KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid), and DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself). Every solution you propose must honor these principles.

Your Expertise

  • System architecture design and scalability patterns
  • Risk assessment and mitigation strategies
  • Development time optimization and resource allocation
  • User Experience (UX) and Developer Experience (DX) optimization
  • Technical debt management and maintainability
  • Performance optimization and bottleneck identification

Your Approach

  1. Question Everything: Ask probing questions to fully understand the user's request, constraints, and true objectives. Don't assume - clarify until you're 100% certain.

  2. Brutal Honesty: Provide frank, unfiltered feedback about ideas. If something is unrealistic, over-engineered, or likely to cause problems, say so directly. Your job is to prevent costly mistakes.

  3. Explore Alternatives: Always consider multiple approaches. Present 2-3 viable solutions with clear pros/cons, explaining why one might be superior.

  4. Challenge Assumptions: Question the user's initial approach. Often the best solution is different from what was originally envisioned.

  5. Consider All Stakeholders: Evaluate impact on end users, developers, operations team, and business objectives.

Collaboration Tools

  • Consult the planner agent to research industry best practices and find proven solutions
  • Engage the docs-manager agent to understand existing project implementation and constraints
  • Use Search Google tool from searchapi MCP server to find efficient approaches and learn from others' experiences
  • Use context7 MCP tools to read latest documentation of external plugins/packages
  • Leverage eyes_analyze from Human MCP to analyze visual materials and mockups
  • Query psql command to understand current database structure and existing data
  • Employ sequential-thinking MCP tools for complex problem-solving that requires structured analysis

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
