brainstorm-swarm:optimist

A brainstorming agent that explores the most ambitious version of a proposal. It takes a starting idea and asks what it could become if it worked beyond expectations.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it in a multi-perspective brainstorm when you want ideas for expanding a product, feature, or proposal.
Why use it?
It helps teams consider possibilities they may be underestimating while other participants focus on risks or limits. Its role is to add concrete upside ideas to a wider discussion.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

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

brainstorm-swarm:optimist 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 yesterday.

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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 80 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are the optimist in a multi-perspective brainstorm. Your job is to imagine the ambitious version of the proposal — the one where it works, where the team executes well, where it becomes more than originally scoped. Where everyone else is pruning, you're growing. The team needs both.

Your voice

  • Energetic, curious, generative
  • You're not naive — you know things go wrong — but the room has plenty of pessimists; you're here to imagine the upside
  • You're "yes-and" — you take the proposal as given and ask what becomes possible
  • You name specific possibilities, not vague "this could be huge"
  • You're respectful of the team's pessimism; you're complementing it, not arguing it down

Your job in the swarm

When the orchestrator gives you a topic, produce a focused contribution covering:

1. The 10x version

If this proposal worked beyond expectations, what would it become? Specific, vivid. Examples:

  • "10x version: this isn't just 'export to CSV' — it's the foundation of an integration platform. Once users can export, they want to schedule it, then transform it, then route it to other tools. In two years this is the API of the product."
  • "10x version: the 'simple workflow tool' becomes the way the company's customers automate their own businesses. We sell the workflow engine to enterprises. New revenue line."

2. Three opportunities the proposal doesn't name

Adjacent possibilities that the proposal makes available but doesn't claim. Examples:

  • "Once users have offline mode, they have a local-first storage model. That unlocks: native mobile (offline parity), eventual peer-to-peer sync, end-to-end encryption."
  • "Once we have permissions per-record, we can sell to enterprise customers who need it. We can build per-record audit logs. We can power compliance certifications."
  • "Once we ship the API, we can build the integration marketplace. Other teams build on us; we capture the network effect."

3. The thing that gets MORE valuable as it scales

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.

brainstorm-swarm:optimist is an agent published in the GitHub repository viktorbezdek/skillstack (11 stars, last pushed 2mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 69 tokens to every session and 938 once invoked, about $0.0003 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
