-# Brainstorming Session Workflow
-
-## Overview
-
-The brainstorming workflow facilitates interactive brainstorming sessions using diverse creative techniques. This workflow acts as an AI facilitator guiding users through various ideation methods to generate and refine creative solutions in a structured, energetic, and highly interactive manner.
-
-## Key Features
-
-- **36 Creative Techniques**: Comprehensive library spanning collaborative, structured, creative, deep, theatrical, wild, and introspective approaches
-- **Interactive Facilitation**: AI acts as a skilled facilitator using "Yes, and..." methodology
-- **Flexible Approach Selection**: User-guided, AI-recommended, random, or progressive technique flows
-- **Context-Aware Sessions**: Supports domain-specific brainstorming through context document input
-- **Systematic Organization**: Converges ideas into immediate opportunities, future innovations, and moonshots
-- **Action Planning**: Prioritizes top ideas with concrete next steps and timelines
-- **Session Documentation**: Comprehensive structured reports capturing all insights and outcomes
-
-## Usage
-
-### Basic Invocation
-
-```bash
-workflow brainstorming
-```
-
-### With Context Document
-
-```bash
-# Provide domain-specific context to guide the session
-workflow brainstorming --data /path/to/context.md
-```
-
-### Configuration
-
-The workflow leverages configuration from `/bmad/cis/config.yaml`:
-
-- **output_folder**: Where session results are saved
-- **user_name**: Session participant identification
-- **brain_techniques**: CSV database of 36 creative techniques
-
-## Workflow Structure
-
-### Files Included

-- **Future Self Interview**: Seek wisdom from your wiser future self
-- **Body Wisdom Dialogue**: Let physical sensations guide ideation
-
-## Workflow Process
-
-### Phase 1: Session Setup (Step 1)
-
-- Context gathering (topic, goals, constraints)
-- Domain-specific guidance if context document provided
-- Session scope definition (broad exploration vs. focused ideation)
-
-### Phase 2: Approach Selection (Step 2)
-
-- **User-Selected**: Browse and choose specific techniques
-- **AI-Recommended**: Tailored technique suggestions based on context
-- **Random Selection**: Surprise technique for creative breakthrough
-- **Progressive Flow**: Multi-technique journey from broad to focused
-
-### Phase 3: Interactive Facilitation (Step 3)
-
-- Master facilitator approach using questions, not answers
-- "Yes, and..." building methodology
-- Energy monitoring and technique switching
-- Real-time idea capture and momentum building
-- Quantity over quality focus (aim: 100 ideas in 60 minutes)
-
-### Phase 4: Convergent Organization (Step 4)
-
-- Review and categorize all generated ideas
-- Identify patterns and themes across techniques
-- Sort into three priority buckets for action planning
-
-### Phase 5: Insight Extraction (Step 5)
-
-- Surface recurring themes across multiple techniques
-- Identify key realizations and surprising connections
-- Extract deeper patterns and meta-insights
-
-### Phase 6: Action Planning (Step 6)
-
-- Prioritize top 3 ideas for implementation
-- Define concrete next steps for each priority
-- Determine resource needs and realistic timelines
-
-### Phase 7: Session Reflection (Step 7)
-
-- Analyze what worked well and areas for further exploration
-- Recommend follow-up techniques and next session planning
-- Capture emergent questions for future investigation
-
-### Phase 8: Report Generation (Step 8)
-
-- Compile comprehensive structured report
-- Calculate total ideas generated and techniques used
-- Format all content for sharing and future reference
-
-## Output
-
-### Generated Files
-
-- **Primary output**: Structured session report saved to `{output_folder}/brainstorming-session-results-{date}.md`
-- **Context integration**: Links to previous brainstorming sessions if available

-## Best Practices
-
-### Before Starting
-
-1. **Define Clear Intent**: Know whether you want broad exploration or focused problem-solving
-2. **Gather Context**: Prepare any relevant background documents or domain knowledge
-3. **Set Time Expectations**: Plan for 45-90 minutes for a comprehensive session
-4. **Create Open Environment**: Ensure distraction-free space for creative thinking
-
-### During Execution
-
-1. **Embrace Quantity**: Generate many ideas without self-censoring
-2. **Build with "Yes, And"**: Accept and expand on ideas rather than judging
-3. **Stay Curious**: Follow unexpected connections and tangents
-4. **Trust the Process**: Let the facilitator guide you through technique transitions
-5. **Capture Everything**: Document all ideas, even seemingly silly ones
-6. **Monitor Energy**: Communicate when you need technique changes or breaks
-
-### After Completion
-
-1. **Review Within 24 Hours**: Re-read the report while insights are fresh
-2. **Act on Quick Wins**: Implement immediate opportunities within one week
-3. **Schedule Follow-ups**: Plan development sessions for promising concepts
-4. **Share Selectively**: Distribute relevant insights to appropriate stakeholders
-
-## Facilitation Principles
-
-The AI facilitator operates using these core principles:
-
-- **Ask, Don't Tell**: Use questions to draw out participant's own ideas
-- **Build, Don't Judge**: Use "Yes, and..." methodology, never "No, but..."
-- **Quantity Over Quality**: Aim for volume in generation phase
-- **Defer Judgment**: Evaluation comes after generation is complete
-- **Stay Curious**: Show genuine interest in participant's unique perspectives
-- **Monitor Energy**: Adapt technique and pace to participant's engagement level
-
-## Example Session Flow
-
-### Progressive Technique Flow
-
-1. **Mind Mapping** (10 min) - Build the landscape of possibilities
-2. **SCAMPER** (15 min) - Systematic exploration of improvement angles
-3. **Six Thinking Hats** (15 min) - Multiple perspectives on solutions
-4. **Forced Relationships** (10 min) - Creative synthesis of unexpected connections
-
-### Energy Checkpoints
-
-- After 15-20 minutes: "Should we continue with this technique or try something new?"
-- Before convergent phase: "Are you ready to start organizing ideas, or explore more?"
-- During action planning: "How's your energy for the final planning phase?"
