EngramGraph: Skill for Claude Code

.agents/skills/brainstorm-assistant/SKILL.md

brainstorm is a skill for Claude Code from AsiaOstrich/EngramGraph. It costs 112 tokens per session (13,959 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided brainstorming process that turns a vague idea into a concrete feature proposal before writing a specification.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to explore options, identify risks and edge cases, and narrow ideas into actionable feature proposals.
Why use it?
It gives ideation a clear structure instead of relying on one unorganised stream of suggestions. It also compares ideas from different viewpoints and challenges them before selection.

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 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 14d 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.

Brainstorm Assistant | 腦力激盪助手

Language: English | 繁體中文

Structured ideation before specification writing. Transform vague ideas into actionable feature proposals through guided brainstorming — grounded in 2024–2026 research on AI-assisted ideation.

在撰寫規格前進行結構化發想。以 2024–2026 年 AI 輔助發想研究為基礎,透過引導式腦力激盪,將模糊構想轉化為可執行的功能提案。

Implements: XSPEC-296 Brainstorm Quality Standard (BQS v1) — brainstorm v4, layered on XSPEC-247 brainstorm v3 (Multi-Persona Ensemble + Multi-Critic Convergence).

What changed in v3 | v3 的核心改動: Divergence is no longer a single AI voice racing to a count — it is a persona ensemble (each role reasons via chain-of-thought, in isolation) crossed with diversity lenses. Convergence is no longer one AI scorer plus one devil's-advocate — it is a multi-critic panel plus a hard-role rebuttal (Devil's Advocate + Steelman). This directly targets the strongest finding in the literature: multiple personas beat a single pass, and a single LLM critic is weak and prone to sycophancy.

v3 把發散從「單一 AI 衝數量」改為persona 集成(每個角色以思維鏈獨立推理)× 多樣性透鏡;把收斂從「單一 AI 評分 + 單一反駁」改為多評審面板 + 硬角色反駁(Devil's Advocate + Steelman)。直接對應文獻最強結論:多 persona 勝過單一 pass,單一 LLM 評審既弱又易諂媚。

What changed in v4 | v4 的核心改動: v3 supplied strong mechanisms but no decidable pass/fail quality gate. v4 layers a time-sequenced quality contract on top — the Brainstorm Quality Standard (BQS v1) — without removing any v3 behaviour. BQS is a four-layer × timeline structure: Layer 0 declares explore/exploit intent; Layer 1 (process, leading, visible during divergence) runs dimensions D1–D4; Layer 2 (product, leading, applied to the Recommended Set only after convergence — ideas with Agg. Score ≥ 3.5, uncapped) runs D5–D8 plus a Seeds column and a contested zone; Layer 3 is an ungoverned Judgment Override. First principle: decisions use leading signals; calibration uses lagging signals — these are ordered in time, not a right/wrong trade-off. The hard sequence gate forbids D5–D8 from being revealed or scored during divergence. See "BQS v1 — Quality Contract" below.

v4 的核心改動: v3 提供了強健的機制,卻沒有可判定 pass/fail 的品質閘。v4 在其上疊加一道時序化品質契約——腦力激盪品質標準(BQS v1)——且不移除任何 v3 行為。BQS 是四層 × 時間軸結構:第 0 層宣告 explore/exploit 意圖;第 1 層(過程、leading、發散期全程可見)跑維度 D1–D4;第 2 層(產物、leading、收斂後僅施於推薦集,即 Agg. Score ≥ 3.5、不限筆數的想法)跑 D5–D8 加 Seeds 欄與爭議區;第 3 層是不受治理的 Judgment Override。第一原理:決策用 leading 訊號、校準用 lagging 訊號——兩者是時間前後,而非對錯取捨。 硬序列閘禁止 D5–D8 在發散期被揭示或評分。詳見下方「BQS v1 — 品質契約」。

What changed in v4.2 (XSPEC-388) | v4.2 的核心改動: D4 pinned where the judge sits and said nothing about whether it can think. An independent context running a literal-following model satisfies the old wording verbatim and rubber-stamps its way through D5–D8 — indistinguishable on paper from a review where someone actually objected. v4.2 gives D4 a second axis: the review must also declare its required model level (see the terminology note below). The CONVERGE briefs are re-shaped as goal + constraints — D5–D8 are criteria the judgment must satisfy, not steps to execute in order; the fixed sentence patterns and per-criterion scoring guides are kept as reference formats. The divergence side cites core/model-selection.md (Standard or higher) instead of adding a rule of its own. No v3 mechanism is removed.

v4.2 的核心改動(XSPEC-388): D4 原本只釘住判官坐在哪裡,一個字都沒說它得想得動。一個獨立 context 跑字面遵循型模型會逐字滿足舊條文,然後照 D5–D8 逐條打勾放行——與一場真的有人反對過的評審在報告上無從分辨。v4.2 給 D4 加上第二個軸:評審還必須宣告其模型層級要求(見下方術語說明)。CONVERGE 的提示改為目標+約束形狀——D5–D8 是判斷必須滿足的判準,不是按順序執行的步驟;既有固定句型與逐準則分數指南保留為參考格式。發散側引用 core/model-selection.md(Standard 或更高)而不另立規則。不移除任何 v3 機制。

Terminology — "model level", never "tier" | 術語——「模型層級」,不用「tier」: inside this skill, tier is already taken twice — the BQS tiering table (which dimensions apply) and the Enhanced Tier. The model-capability axis defined in core/model-selection.md (called model tier there) is therefore always written model level(模型層級) in this skill. Model levels are that standard's vendor-neutral labels; this skill never names a concrete vendor model (see D4).

在本 skill 內,tier 已被佔用兩次——BQS 分級表(套用哪些維度)與 Enhanced Tier。core/model-selection.md 定義的模型能力軸(該標準稱 model tier)在本 skill 一律寫作模型層級(model level)。模型層級是該標準的廠商中立標籤;本 skill 絕不指名具體廠商模型(見 D4)。

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 is a skill published in the GitHub repository AsiaOstrich/EngramGraph (3 stars, last pushed today), licensed MIT. It adds 112 tokens to every session and 13,959 once invoked, about $0.0004 per session on Opus 5.5. 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 2026-10-16.
