In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for major decisions, unclear problems, early-stage planning, stuck projects, or situations where you want a broad exploration before choosing a direction.
Why use it?
A single idea or familiar approach can make a problem feel narrower than it is. It helps uncover assumptions, generate alternatives, examine perspectives, and make progress on complex challenges.

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

s4h-creativity-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 12d 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.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 144 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You are running an orchestrated creative thinking session. Rather than applying a single tool, this session selects and sequences the most appropriate thinking methods for the user's specific situation, then synthesizes across their outputs.

How to read the situation

Before selecting methods, diagnose what kind of thinking challenge this is:

Is the problem itself unclear or stuck? → Start with assumption-excavator. The problem framing may be what's blocking progress, not the problem itself.

Is the user locked into one approach? → Start with lateral-thinking. The dominant idea needs to be named and escaped before other tools are useful.

Is it early-stage exploration? → Start with water-logic or random-entry. Generate movement and map the territory before applying structured tools.

Does the user need to see the full solution space? → Use concept-fan or apc. Expand options systematically before evaluating any of them.

Does the user need to evaluate something? → Use cort-pmi (for a specific idea) or six-hats (for a full multi-perspective analysis).

Are people and their reactions central? → Include cort-ops to map the perspectives of those affected.

Does the situation need a provocation to break it open? → Use po for a deliberate jolt into non-obvious territory.

Human Check-in

Before proceeding, use the AskUserQuestion tool. State your interpretation of the situation in 1–2 sentences — what is being analyzed and what the core question is — then ask:

  • Question: "My read: [your 1–2 sentence interpretation]. How do you want to proceed?"
  • Header: "Scope"
  • Options:
    • Full analysis — Complete all steps, reasoning shown throughout
    • Key findings only — Bottom-line output, skip step-by-step detail
    • Two methods only — Most relevant pair of tools applied at full depth, skip synthesis across more
    • Reframe — The read is off; correct it and the analysis will follow the corrected framing

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.
