groove-work-brainstorm

groove-work-brainstorm is a skill for Claude Code from andreadellacorte/groove. It costs 24 tokens per session (316 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided conversation process for defining the scope of a work request before planning its implementation. It records important decisions, reasons, and unanswered questions, while applying YAGNI—the practice of avoiding work that is not yet needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to clarify goals, constraints, decisions, and open questions before creating an implementation plan or recording the result in the configured task system.
Why use it?
It helps turn a broad or unclear request into a deliberately limited piece of work. This reduces scope creep and keeps unresolved questions visible for the planning stage.

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

groove-work-brainstorm 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 2mo 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.

What it actually says

groove-work-brainstorm

Outcome

Scope is clarified through dialogue. Key decisions and open questions are surfaced. Output is captured as a brainstorm doc or task in the configured backend.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Scope is clearly defined and deliberately constrained (YAGNI applied)
  • Key decisions are listed with rationale
  • Open questions are listed (not resolved — resolution happens in plan)
  • Output exists either as a brainstorm doc or as a task body in the backend
  • Stage task created in backend: YYYY-MM-DD, Brainstorm

Constraints

  • Read tasks.backend from .groove/index.md to determine backend
  • Use template at skills/groove-work-brainstorm/templates/brainstorm-doc.md for doc output
  • Enforce YAGNI — scope is deliberately constrained at this stage; push back on scope creep
  • Do not start planning implementation here — that belongs in /groove-work-plan
  • Ask clarifying questions before finalising scope; do not assume
  • If user provides $ARGUMENTS, use as the topic/title for the brainstorm
  • Create stage task via /groove-utilities-task-create if tasks != none (title YYYY-MM-DD, Brainstorm)
Files

What ships with it

1 file beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

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.
