#$ARGUMENTS

First, determine if the argument is a bead ID or a feature description:

Check if the argument matches a bead ID pattern:

• Pattern: lowercase alphanumeric segments separated by hyphens (e.g., bikiniup-xhr, beads-123, explore-auth2)
• Regex: ^[a-z0-9]+-[a-z0-9]+(-[a-z0-9]+)*$

If the argument matches a bead ID pattern:

1. Load the bead using the Bash tool:

   bd show "#$ARGUMENTS" --json
   

2. If the bead exists:

   • Extract the title and description fields from the JSON array (first element)
   • Example: bd show "#$ARGUMENTS" --json | jq -r '.[0].title' and jq -r '.[0].description'
   • Use the bead's title and description as context for brainstorming
   • Announce: "Brainstorming bead #$ARGUMENTS: {title}"
   • Continue brainstorming to explore the idea more deeply

3. If the bead doesn't exist (command fails):

   • Report: "Bead ID '#$ARGUMENTS' not found. Check the ID or provide a feature description instead."
   • Stop execution

If the argument does NOT match a bead ID pattern:

• Treat it as a feature description: <feature_description>#$ARGUMENTS</feature_description>
• Continue with the workflow

If the argument is empty:

• Ask: "What would you like to explore? Provide either a bead ID (e.g., 'bikiniup-xhr') or describe the feature, problem, or improvement you're thinking about."

Do not proceed until you have a clear feature description from the user. </execution_context>

Process knowledge: Load the brainstorming skill for detailed question techniques, approach exploration patterns, and YAGNI principles.

<project_root>

All .lavra/ paths are relative to the project root. If you cd into a subdirectory during work, resolve the project root first:

PROJECT_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || echo "$PWD")

Then prefix all .lavra/ paths with "$PROJECT_ROOT/" when invoking them via Bash.

</project_root>

Phase 0: Assess Requirements Clarity

Evaluate whether brainstorming is needed based on the feature description.

Clear requirements indicators:

• Specific acceptance criteria provided
• Referenced existing patterns to follow
• Described exact expected behavior
• Constrained, well-defined scope

If requirements are already clear: Use AskUserQuestion tool to suggest: "Your requirements seem detailed enough to proceed directly to planning. Should I run /lavra-plan instead, or would you like to explore the idea further?"
