gsd-ideate

gsd-ideate is a command for Claude Code from mrboups/xbrain. It costs 15 tokens per session (218 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of gsd-ideate, MIT.

A command router for turning an unclear request into the right exploration, design, technical-spike, specification, or note-taking workflow.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explore an opportunity, sketch a design, investigate a technical question, write a phase specification, or capture a todo, note, backlog item, or idea seed.
Why use it?
It removes the need to remember which separate command handles each kind of early-stage project work.

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

gsd-ideate 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 2d 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

91% identical to gsd-ideate — 1 line 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.

What it actually says

Route to the appropriate exploration / capture skill based on the user's intent. gsd-note, gsd-add-todo, gsd-add-backlog, and gsd-plant-seed were folded into gsd-capture (with --note, default, --backlog, --seed modes) by #2790. The capture target lists pending todos via --list.

Changes

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.
