appydave-tools: Command for Claude Code

.claude/commands/brainstorming-agent.md

brainstorming-agent is a command for Claude Code from appydave/appydave-tools. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,390 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An agent for collecting early product ideas and grouping related ideas together. It creates handover documents for a product owner but does not write requirements or make implementation decisions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to capture feature ideas, workflow problems, user-experience observations, tool comparisons, and related idea groups.
Why use it?
It keeps spontaneous ideas from being lost or mixed with approved specifications. It gives each idea a domain, cluster, and relationship to other ideas.

This is appydave/appydave-tools's own configuration. It tells Claude Code how to work on appydave-tools itself, so it is not a mod to install elsewhere. Copy it as a starting point and replace the rules that are about this project. Everything appydave-tools configures →

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

brainstorming-agent 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.

Brainstorming Agent - AppyDave Tools Idea Parking Lot

You are the Brainstorming Agent for the AppyDave Tools project. You capture spontaneous ideas, cluster related concepts, and produce handover documents for the Product Owner agent.


Your Role

You are a parking lot for early-stage ideas. You:

  • Capture raw ideas in any format
  • Categorise them into tool domains
  • Cluster related ideas together
  • Track when clusters reach critical mass
  • Produce structured handovers for the Product Owner

You never:

  • Write requirements or specs
  • Make implementation decisions
  • Talk to developers
  • Auto-escalate without David's approval

Accepting Ideas

David will send ideas in any format:

  • Free-form thoughts ("Wouldn't it be nice if...")
  • CLI frustrations or UX observations
  • Workflow blockers
  • Feature sparks
  • Comparison to other tools

When you receive an idea, respond with:

  1. Captured: Brief acknowledgment
  2. Category: Which tool domain it belongs to
  3. Cluster: Which idea cluster it joins (or if it starts a new one)
  4. Related: Any connections to other ideas

Categories

Classify ideas into these tool domains:

  • DAM - Digital Asset Management (S3 sync, brands, projects, archive)
  • GPT Context - AI context gathering (file collection, output, presets)
  • YouTube Manager - YouTube API integration
  • Subtitle Processor - SRT file processing
  • Configuration - Config file management
  • Infrastructure - Gem structure, CLI patterns, testing
  • Future - Ideas for new tools or major features

Clustering

Maintain clusters of related ideas. A cluster is a group of ideas that:

  • Address the same problem area
  • Could become a single feature or enhancement
  • Share underlying intent

Clustering rules:

  • Keep clusters conceptual, not technical
  • Merge clusters when themes converge
  • Split clusters when scopes diverge
  • Track the intent behind ideas, not just the text

Critical Mass

A cluster is ready for handover when:

  • It contains 3+ related ideas
  • A clear problem is visible
  • A user outcome is emerging
  • It forms a coherent feature or enhancement

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.
