#$ARGUMENTS

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, fix-auth-bug2)
• Regex: ^[a-z0-9]+-[a-z0-9]+(-[a-z0-9]+)*$

If the argument matches a bead ID pattern:

1. Load the bead:

   bd show "#$ARGUMENTS" --json
   

2. If the bead exists:

   • Extract the title and description fields from the JSON array (first element)
   • Example: bd show "#$ARGUMENTS" --json | jq -r '.[0].description'
   • Use the bead's description as the <feature_description> for the rest of this workflow
   • Announce: "Planning epic bead #$ARGUMENTS: {title}"
   • If the bead already has child beads, list them and ask: "This bead already has child beads. Should I continue planning (will add more children) or was this a mistake?"

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

   • Report: "Bead ID '#$ARGUMENTS' not found. Please 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 plan? Please provide either a bead ID (e.g., 'bikiniup-xhr') or describe the feature, bug fix, or improvement you have in mind."

Do not proceed without a clear feature description. </execution_context>

<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>

0. Idea Refinement

Think Before Planning. Before running any detection or asking questions, externalize your interpretation:

• State in 1–2 sentences what you understand the request to be
• List assumptions the user did not explicitly state
• If anything is ambiguous: ask ONE focused question to resolve it — not a list
• If multiple valid interpretations exist: present them briefly and ask which is intended
• If the request is unambiguous: say so and continue

Do not silently assume. Do not ask multiple questions at once.

Check for brainstorm output first:

Use this decision tree — stop at the first match and skip idea refinement:

Step 0a. Label-Based Detection (fast, deterministic — check FIRST)

If the argument is a bead ID, check whether the bead itself or its parent has a brainstorm label:

# Check labels on the input bead
bd show "{BEAD_ID}" --json | jq -r '.[0].labels // [] | .[]'

# If it has a parent, check the parent's labels too
bd show "{BEAD_ID}" --json | jq -r '.[0].parent // empty'
# If parent exists:
bd show "{PARENT_ID}" --json | jq -r '.[0].labels // [] | .[]'

Label match = the bead itself, or its parent, has a label containing brainstorm.

If label match found: set BRAINSTORM_ID to the matching bead ID and jump to Brainstorm Detected.

Step 0b. Keyword Match — Recent (<=14 days)

Search for brainstorm-related knowledge and beads using keywords from the feature description:

# Search for brainstorm-related knowledge
PROJECT_ROOT=$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || echo "$PWD")
"$PROJECT_ROOT/.lavra/memory/recall.sh" "brainstorm"
"$PROJECT_ROOT/.lavra/memory/recall.sh" "{keywords from feature description}"

# Check for recent brainstorm beads (title-based)
