+# Facilitate Brainstorming Session Task
+
+Facilitate interactive brainstorming sessions with users. Be creative and adaptive in applying techniques.
+
+## Process
+
+### Step 1: Session Setup
+
+Ask 4 context questions (don't preview what happens next):
+
+1. What are we brainstorming about?
+2. Any constraints or parameters?
+3. Goal: broad exploration or focused ideation?
+4. Do you want a structured document output to reference later? (Default Yes)
+
+### Step 2: Present Approach Options
+
+After getting answers to Step 1, present 4 approach options (numbered):
+
+1. User selects specific techniques
+2. Analyst recommends techniques based on context
+3. Random technique selection for creative variety
+4. Progressive technique flow (start broad, narrow down)
+
+### Step 3: Execute Techniques Interactively
+
+**KEY PRINCIPLES:**
+
+- **FACILITATOR ROLE**: Guide user to generate their own ideas through questions, prompts, and examples
+- **CONTINUOUS ENGAGEMENT**: Keep user engaged with chosen technique until they want to switch or are satisfied
+- **CAPTURE OUTPUT**: If (default) document output requested, capture all ideas generated in each technique section to the document from the beginning.
+
+**Technique Selection:**
+If user selects Option 1, present numbered list of techniques from the brainstorming-techniques data file. User can select by number..
+
+**Technique Execution:**
+
+1. Apply selected technique according to data file description
+2. Keep engaging with technique until user indicates they want to:
+   - Choose a different technique
+   - Apply current ideas to a new technique
+   - Move to convergent phase
+   - End session
+
+**Output Capture (if requested):**
+For each technique used, capture:
+
+- Technique name and duration
+- Key ideas generated by user
+- Insights and patterns identified
+- User's reflections on the process
+
+### Step 4: Session Flow
+
+1. **Warm-up** (5-10 min) - Build creative confidence
+2. **Divergent** (20-30 min) - Generate quantity over quality
+3. **Convergent** (15-20 min) - Group and categorize ideas
+4. **Synthesis** (10-15 min) - Refine and develop concepts
+
+### Step 5: Document Output (if requested)
+
+Generate structured document with these sections:
+
+**Executive Summary**
+
+- Session topic and goals
+- Techniques used and duration
+- Total ideas generated
+- Key themes and patterns identified
+
+**Technique Sections** (for each technique used)
+
+- Technique name and description
+- Ideas generated (user's own words)
+- Insights discovered
+- Notable connections or patterns
+
+**Idea Categorization**
+
+- **Immediate Opportunities** - Ready to implement now
+- **Future Innovations** - Requires development/research
+- **Moonshots** - Ambitious, transformative concepts
+- **Insights & Learnings** - Key realizations from session
+
+**Action Planning**
+
+- Top 3 priority ideas with rationale
+- Next steps for each priority
+- Resources/research needed
+- Timeline considerations
+
+**Reflection & Follow-up**
+
+- What worked well in this session
+- Areas for further exploration
+- Recommended follow-up techniques
+- Questions that emerged for future sessions
+
+## Key Principles
+
+- **YOU ARE A FACILITATOR**: Guide the user to brainstorm, don't brainstorm for them (unless they request it persistently)
+- **INTERACTIVE DIALOGUE**: Ask questions, wait for responses, build on their ideas
+- **ONE TECHNIQUE AT A TIME**: Don't mix multiple techniques in one response
+- **CONTINUOUS ENGAGEMENT**: Stay with one technique until user wants to switch
+- **DRAW IDEAS OUT**: Use prompts and examples to help them generate their own ideas
+- **REAL-TIME ADAPTATION**: Monitor engagement and adjust approach as needed
+- Maintain energy and momentum
+- Defer judgment during generation
+- Quantity leads to quality (aim for 100 ideas in 60 minutes)
+- Build on ideas collaboratively
+- Document everything in output document
+
+## Advanced Engagement Strategies
+
+**Energy Management**
+
+- Check engagement levels: "How are you feeling about this direction?"
+- Offer breaks or technique switches if energy flags
+- Use encouraging language and celebrate idea generation
+
+**Depth vs. Breadth**
+
+- Ask follow-up questions to deepen ideas: "Tell me more about that..."
+- Use "Yes, and..." to build on their ideas
+- Help them make connections: "How does this relate to your earlier idea about...?"
+
+**Transition Management**
+
+- Always ask before switching techniques: "Ready to try a different approach?"
+- Offer options: "Should we explore this idea deeper or generate more alternatives?"
+- Respect their process and timing

+- [ ] Existing functionality verified through testing
+- [ ] Integration points working correctly
+- [ ] Documentation updated appropriately
+- [ ] No regression in existing features
+
+### 3. Validation Checklist
+
+Before finalizing the epic, ensure:
+
+**Scope Validation:**

+- [ ] Dependencies are identified
+
+### 4. Handoff to Story Manager
+
+Once the epic is validated, provide this handoff to the Story Manager:
+
+---
+
+**Story Manager Handoff:**
+
+"Please develop detailed user stories for this brownfield epic. Key considerations:
+
+- This is an enhancement to an existing system running {{technology stack}}
+- Integration points: {{list key integration points}}
+- Existing patterns to follow: {{relevant existing patterns}}
+- Critical compatibility requirements: {{key requirements}}
+- Each story must include verification that existing functionality remains intact
+
+The epic should maintain system integrity while delivering {{epic goal}}."
+
+---
+
+## Success Criteria
+
+The epic creation is successful when:
+
+1. Enhancement scope is clearly defined and appropriately sized
+2. Integration approach respects existing system architecture
+3. Risk to existing functionality is minimized
+4. Stories are logically sequenced for safe implementation
+5. Compatibility requirements are clearly specified
+6. Rollback plan is feasible and documented
+
+## Important Notes
+
+- This task is specifically for SMALL brownfield enhancements
+- If the scope grows beyond 3 stories, consider the full brownfield PRD process
+- Always prioritize existing system integrity over new functionality
+- When in doubt about scope or complexity, escalate to full brownfield planning
