What is it for?
It helps create brainstorming guidance, run role-based analysis, and produce a synthesis for a project or decision.
Why use it?
It gives open-ended ideas a structured process and lets different viewpoints be considered before the results are combined.

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 1mo 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

Unified brainstorming skill combining interactive framework generation, multi-role parallel analysis, and cross-role synthesis into a single entry point with two operational modes.

Data Flow:

Auto Mode:
  Phase 2 (artifacts) → guidance-specification.md + selected_roles[]
    → Phase 3 (N × role-analysis) → {role}/analysis*.md (immutable)
      → Phase 4 (synthesis) → feature-specs/ + feature-index.json + synthesis-changelog.md

Single Role Mode:
  Phase 3 (1 × role-analysis) → {role}/analysis*.md

Key Design Principles

  1. Dual-Mode Routing: Interactive mode selection via AskUserQuestion, with parameter-based auto-detection
  2. Progressive Phase Loading: Phase files loaded on-demand via Ref: markers, not all at once
  3. Task Attachment/Collapse: Sub-tasks attached during phase execution, collapsed after completion
  4. Session Continuity: All phases share session state via workflow-session.json
  5. Auto-Continue Execution: Phases chain automatically without user intervention between them
  6. SPEC.md Quality Alignment: Guidance specification and role analysis follow SPEC.md standards (Concepts & Terminology, Non-Goals, Data Model, State Machine, RFC 2119 constraints)
  7. Template-Driven Analysis: Role-specific templates (e.g., system-architect) ensure consistent, high-quality outputs
  8. Quality Gates: Automated validation of guidance specification and role analysis against quality standards

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 is a skill published in the GitHub repository catlog22/Claude-Code-Workflow (2,124 stars, last pushed 4mo ago), licensed MIT. It adds 44 tokens to every session and 4,685 once invoked, about $0.0002 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 2026-09-03.
