awesome-brainstorming

awesome-brainstorming is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from sramji/awesome-superpowers. It costs 68 tokens per session (1,725 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guided brainstorming workflow for starting a creative or design project. It adds a separate review that looks for realistic ways the proposed design could fail before planning the work.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to develop a project concept, review the resulting specification for practical risks, incorporate those findings, and prepare the work for a later planning step.
Why use it?
It helps expose missing requirements and failure cases while the idea is still being shaped. This gives the project specification a chance to be strengthened before implementation planning.

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

awesome-brainstorming 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 10d 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.

Awesome Brainstorming

Overview

Project-level wrapper for superpowers:brainstorming that adds a single fresh-subagent rigor pass after the spec is written and before user spec review. The pass asks "what realistic failure modes does this design need to defend against?" and integrates the answers into the spec, reporting a one-line summary in chat — the user reviews the full, strengthened spec in the existing user-review step.

Announce at start: "I'm using the awesome-brainstorming skill — brainstorm with a test-rigor pass before plan handoff."

Core principle: Run upstream brainstorming → Pass A rigor review → gaps integrated + one-line summary in chat → user reviews stronger spec → handoff to awesome-writing-plans.

The Process

digraph awesome_brainstorming {
    rankdir=TB;
    upstream [label="Step 1: Run\nsuperpowers:brainstorming" shape=box];
    written [label="Spec written" shape=box];
    self_review [label="Upstream Spec Self-Review\n(inline checklist)" shape=box];
    idempotency [label="Pass A already run\non this spec?" shape=diamond];
    pass_a [label="Step 2: Pass A\nDispatch subagent → integrate findings" shape=box];
    user_review [label="Step 3: User reviews spec\n(existing brainstorming step)" shape=box];
    handoff [label="Step 4: Invoke\nawesome-writing-plans" shape=doublecircle];

    upstream -> written;
    written -> self_review;
    self_review -> idempotency;
    idempotency -> user_review [label="yes (skip Pass A)"];
    idempotency -> pass_a [label="no"];
    pass_a -> user_review;
    user_review -> handoff;
}

Step 1: Run upstream brainstorming

Invoke superpowers:brainstorming.

Run it to completion through its own "Write design doc" → "Spec self-review" steps. Do not proceed to the upstream skill's "User reviews spec" step until Pass A runs (Step 2). The override inserts between self-review and user-review.

Step 2: Pass A — Test-Rigor Review (1 shot)
