-# Step 2d: Progressive Technique Flow
-
-## MANDATORY EXECUTION RULES (READ FIRST):
-
-- ✅ YOU ARE A CREATIVE JOURNEY GUIDE, orchestrating systematic idea development
-- 🎯 DESIGN PROGRESSIVE FLOW from broad exploration to focused action
-- 📋 LOAD TECHNIQUES ON-DEMAND from brain-methods.csv for each phase
-- 🔍 MATCH TECHNIQUES to natural creative progression stages
-- 💬 CREATE CLEAR JOURNEY MAP with phase transitions
-- ✅ YOU MUST ALWAYS SPEAK OUTPUT In your Agent communication style with the `communication_language`
-
-## EXECUTION PROTOCOLS:
-
-- 🎯 Load brain techniques CSV only when needed for each phase
-- ⚠️ Present [B] back option and [C] continue options
-- 💾 Update frontmatter with progressive technique sequence
-- 📖 Route to technique execution after journey confirmation
-- 🚫 FORBIDDEN jumping ahead to later phases without proper foundation
-
-## CONTEXT BOUNDARIES:
-
-- Session context from Step 1 available for journey design
-- Brain techniques CSV with 36+ techniques across 7 categories
-- User wants systematic, comprehensive idea development
-- Must design natural progression from divergent to convergent thinking
-
-## YOUR TASK:
-
-Design a progressive technique flow that takes users from expansive exploration through to actionable implementation planning.
-
-## PROGRESSIVE FLOW SEQUENCE:
-
-### 1. Introduce Progressive Journey Concept
-
-Explain the value of systematic creative progression:
-
-"Excellent choice! Progressive Technique Flow is perfect for comprehensive idea development. This approach mirrors how natural creativity works - starting broad, exploring possibilities, then systematically refining toward actionable solutions.
-
-**The Creative Journey We'll Take:**
-
-**Phase 1: EXPANSIVE EXPLORATION** (Divergent Thinking)
-
-- Generate abundant ideas without judgment
-- Explore wild possibilities and unconventional approaches
-- Create maximum creative breadth and options
-
-**Phase 2: PATTERN RECOGNITION** (Analytical Thinking)
-
-- Identify themes, connections, and emerging patterns
-- Organize the creative chaos into meaningful groups
-- Discover insights and relationships between ideas
-
-**Phase 3: IDEA DEVELOPMENT** (Convergent Thinking)
-
-- Refine and elaborate the most promising concepts
-- Build upon strong foundations with detail and depth
-- Transform raw ideas into well-developed solutions
-
-**Phase 4: ACTION PLANNING** (Implementation Focus)
-
-- Create concrete next steps and implementation strategies
-- Identify resources, timelines, and success metrics
-- Transform ideas into actionable plans
-
-**Loading Brain Techniques Library for Journey Design...**"
-
-**Load CSV and parse:**
-
-- Read `brain-methods.csv`
-- Parse: category, technique_name, description, facilitation_prompts, best_for, energy_level, typical_duration
-- Map techniques to each phase of the creative journey
-
-### 2. Design Phase-Specific Technique Selection
-
-Select optimal techniques for each progressive phase:

-
-- **Category:** Deep/Structured techniques
-- **Why for Phase 2:** Ideal for identifying themes and connections between generated ideas
-- **Expected Outcome:** Clear patterns and priority insights
-- **Analytical Focus:** Organized thinking and pattern discovery
-
-**Alternative for different session type:** [Alternative analysis technique]"
-
-**Phase 3: Idea Development Techniques**
-
-"For **Idea Development**, we select techniques that refine and elaborate promising concepts:
-
-**Recommended Technique: [Development Technique]**
-
-- **Category:** Structured/Collaborative techniques
-- **Why for Phase 3:** Perfect for building depth and detail around strong concepts

-- **Refinement Focus:** Practical enhancement and feasibility exploration"
-
-**Phase 4: Action Planning Techniques**
-
-"For **Action Planning**, we choose techniques that create concrete implementation pathways:
-
-**Recommended Technique: [Planning Technique]**
-
-- **Category:** Structured/Analytical techniques
-- **Why for Phase 4:** Ideal for transforming ideas into actionable steps
-- **Expected Outcome:** Clear implementation plan with timelines and resources
-- **Implementation Focus:** Practical next steps and success metrics"
