+description: "Discovers and injects project-specific coding guidelines from .trellis/spec/ before implementation begins. Reads spec indexes, pre-development checklists, and shared thinking guides for the target package. Use when starting a new coding task, before writing any code, switching to a different package, or needing to refresh project conventions and standards."
+---
+
+Read the relevant development guidelines before starting your task.
+
+Execute these steps:
+
+1. **Discover packages and their spec layers**:
+   ```bash
+   python3 ./.trellis/scripts/get_context.py --mode packages
+   ```
+
+2. **Identify which specs apply** to your task based on:
+   - Which package you're modifying (e.g., `cli/`, `docs-site/`)
+   - What type of work (backend, frontend, unit-test, docs, etc.)
+
+3. **Read the spec index** for each relevant module:
+   ```bash
+   cat .trellis/spec/<package>/<layer>/index.md
+   ```
+   Follow the **"Pre-Development Checklist"** section in the index.
+
+4. **Read the specific guideline files** listed in the Pre-Development Checklist that are relevant to your task. The index is NOT the goal — it points you to the actual guideline files (e.g., `error-handling.md`, `conventions.md`, `mock-strategies.md`). Read those files to understand the coding standards and patterns.
+
+5. **Always read shared guides**:
+   ```bash
+   cat .trellis/spec/guides/index.md
+   ```
+
+6. Understand the coding standards and patterns you need to follow, then proceed with your development plan.
+
+This step is **mandatory** before writing any code.

+description: "Guides collaborative requirements discovery before implementation. Creates task directory, seeds PRD, asks high-value questions one at a time, researches technical choices, and converges on MVP scope. Use when requirements are unclear, there are multiple valid approaches, or the user describes a new feature or complex task."
+---
+
+# Brainstorm - Requirements Discovery (AI Coding Enhanced)
+
+Guide AI through collaborative requirements discovery **before implementation**, optimized for AI coding workflows:
+
+* **Task-first** (capture ideas immediately)
+* **Action-before-asking** (reduce low-value questions)
+* **Research-first** for technical choices (avoid asking users to invent options)
+* **Diverge → Converge** (expand thinking, then lock MVP)
+
+---
+
+## When to Use
+
+Triggered from `start` (Trellis command) when the user describes a development task, especially when:
+
+* requirements are unclear or evolving
+* there are multiple valid implementation paths
+* trade-offs matter (UX, reliability, maintainability, cost, performance)
+* the user might not know the best options up front
+
+---
+
+## Core Principles (Non-negotiable)
+
+1. **Task-first (capture early)**
+   Always ensure a task exists at the start so the user's ideas are recorded immediately.
+
+2. **Action before asking**
+   If you can derive the answer from repo code, docs, configs, conventions, or quick research — do that first.
+
+3. **One question per message**
+   Never overwhelm the user with a list of questions. Ask one, update PRD, repeat.
+
+4. **Prefer concrete options**
+   For preference/decision questions, present 2–3 feasible, specific approaches with trade-offs.
+
+5. **Research-first for technical choices**
+   If the decision depends on industry conventions / similar tools / established patterns, do research first, then propose options.
+
+6. **Diverge → Converge**
+   After initial understanding, proactively consider future evolution, related scenarios, and failure/edge cases — then converge to an MVP with explicit out-of-scope.
+
+7. **No meta questions**
+   Do not ask "should I search?" or "can you paste the code so I can continue?"
+   If you need information: search/inspect. If blocked: ask the minimal blocking question.
+
+---
+
+## Step 0: Ensure Task Exists (ALWAYS)
+
+Before any Q&A, ensure a task exists. If none exists, create one immediately.
+
+* Use a **temporary working title** derived from the user's message.
+* It's OK if the title is imperfect — refine later in PRD.
+
+```bash
+TASK_DIR=$(python3 ./.trellis/scripts/task.py create "brainstorm: <short goal>" --slug <auto>)
+```
+
+Use a slug without a date prefix. `task.py create` adds the `MM-DD-`
+directory prefix automatically.
+
+Create/seed `prd.md` immediately with what you know:
+
+```markdown
+# brainstorm: <short goal>
+
+## Goal
+
+<one paragraph: what + why>
+
+## What I already know
+
+* <facts from user message>
+* <facts discovered from repo/docs>
+
+## Assumptions (temporary)
+
+* <assumptions to validate>
+
+## Open Questions
+
+* <ONLY Blocking / Preference questions; keep list short>
+
+## Requirements (evolving)
+
+* <start with what is known>
+
+## Acceptance Criteria (evolving)
+
+* [ ] <testable criterion>
+
+## Definition of Done (team quality bar)
+
+* Tests added/updated (unit/integration where appropriate)
+* Lint / typecheck / CI green
+* Docs/notes updated if behavior changes
+* Rollout/rollback considered if risky
+
+## Out of Scope (explicit)
+
+* <what we will not do in this task>
+
+## Technical Notes
+
+* <files inspected, constraints, links, references>
+* <research notes summary if applicable>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 1: Auto-Context (DO THIS BEFORE ASKING QUESTIONS)
+
+Before asking questions like "what does the code look like?", gather context yourself:
+
+### Repo inspection checklist
+
+* Identify likely modules/files impacted
+* Locate existing patterns (similar features, conventions, error handling style)
+* Check configs, scripts, existing command definitions
+* Note any constraints (runtime, dependency policy, build tooling)
+
+### Documentation checklist
+
+* Look for existing PRDs/specs/templates
+* Look for command usage examples, README, ADRs if any
+
+Write findings into PRD:
+
+* Add to `What I already know`
+* Add constraints/links to `Technical Notes`
+
+---
+
+## Step 2: Classify Complexity (still useful, not gating task creation)
+
+| Complexity   | Criteria                                               | Action                                      |
+| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------ | ------------------------------------------- |
+| **Trivial**  | Single-line fix, typo, obvious change                  | Skip brainstorm, implement directly         |
+| **Simple**   | Clear goal, 1–2 files, scope well-defined              | Ask 1 confirm question, then implement      |
+| **Moderate** | Multiple files, some ambiguity                         | Light brainstorm (2–3 high-value questions) |
+| **Complex**  | Vague goal, architectural choices, multiple approaches | Full brainstorm                             |
+
+> Note: Task already exists from Step 0. Classification only affects depth of brainstorming.
+
+---
+
+## Step 3: Question Gate (Ask ONLY high-value questions)
+
+Before asking ANY question, run the following gate:
+
+### Gate A — Can I derive this without the user?
+
+If answer is available via:
+
+* repo inspection (code/config)
+* docs/specs/conventions
+* quick market/OSS research
+
+→ **Do not ask.** Fetch it, summarize, update PRD.
+
+### Gate B — Is this a meta/lazy question?
+
+Examples:
+
+* "Should I search?"
+* "Can you paste the code so I can proceed?"
+* "What does the code look like?" (when repo is available)
+
+→ **Do not ask.** Take action.
+
+### Gate C — What type of question is it?
+
+* **Blocking**: cannot proceed without user input
+* **Preference**: multiple valid choices, depends on product/UX/risk preference
+* **Derivable**: should be answered by inspection/research
+
+→ Only ask **Blocking** or **Preference**.
+
+---
+
+## Step 4: Research-first Mode (Mandatory for technical choices)
+
+### Trigger conditions (any → research-first)
+
+* The task involves selecting an approach, library, protocol, framework, template system, plugin mechanism, or CLI UX convention
+* The user asks for "best practice", "how others do it", "recommendation"
+* The user can't reasonably enumerate options
+
+### Delegate to `trellis-research` sub-agent (don't research inline)
+
+For each research topic, **spawn a `trellis-research` sub-agent via the Task tool** — don't do WebFetch / WebSearch / `gh api` inline in the main conversation.
+
+Why:
+- The sub-agent has its own context window → doesn't pollute brainstorm context with raw tool output
+- It persists findings to `{TASK_DIR}/research/<topic>.md` (the contract — see `workflow.md` Phase 1.2)
+- It returns only `{file path, one-line summary}` to the main agent
+- Independent topics can be **parallelized** — spawn multiple sub-agents in one tool call
+
+Agent type: `trellis-research`
+Task description template: "Research <specific question>; persist findings to `{TASK_DIR}/research/<topic-slug>.md`."
+
+❌ Bad (what you must NOT do):
+```
+Main agent: WebFetch(url-A) → WebFetch(url-B) → Bash(gh api ...)
+          → WebSearch(q1) → WebSearch(q2) → ... (10+ inline calls)
+          → Write(research/topic.md)
+```
+→ Pollutes main context with raw HTML/JSON, burns tokens.
+
+✅ Good:
+```
+Main agent: Task(subagent_type="trellis-research",
+                 prompt="Research topic A; persist to research/topic-a.md")
+          + Task(subagent_type="trellis-research",
+                 prompt="Research topic B; persist to research/topic-b.md")
+          + Task(subagent_type="trellis-research",
+                 prompt="Research topic C; persist to research/topic-c.md")
+→ Reads research/topic-{a,b,c}.md after they finish.
+```
+
+### Research steps (to pass into each sub-agent prompt)
+
+Each `trellis-research` sub-agent should:
+
+1. Identify 2–4 comparable tools/patterns for its topic
+2. Summarize common conventions and why they exist
+3. Map conventions onto our repo constraints
+4. Write findings to `{TASK_DIR}/research/<topic>.md`
+
+Main agent then reads the persisted files and produces **2–3 feasible approaches** in PRD.
+
+### Research output format (PRD)
+
+The PRD itself should only reference the persisted research files, not duplicate their content. Add a `## Research References` section pointing at `research/*.md`.
+
+Optionally, add a convergence section with feasible approaches derived from the research:
+
+```markdown
+## Research References
+
+* [`research/<topic-a>.md`](research/<topic-a>.md) — <one-line takeaway>
+* [`research/<topic-b>.md`](research/<topic-b>.md) — <one-line takeaway>
+
+## Research Notes
+
+### What similar tools do
+
+* ...
+* ...
+
+### Constraints from our repo/project
+
+* ...
+
+### Feasible approaches here
+
+**Approach A: <name>** (Recommended)
+
+* How it works:
+* Pros:
+* Cons:
+
+**Approach B: <name>**
+
+* How it works:
+* Pros:
+* Cons:
+
+**Approach C: <name>** (optional)
+
+* ...
+```
+
+Then ask **one** preference question:
+
+* "Which approach do you prefer: A / B / C (or other)?"
+
+---
+
+## Step 5: Expansion Sweep (DIVERGE) — Required after initial understanding
+
+After you can summarize the goal, proactively broaden thinking before converging.
+
+### Expansion categories (keep to 1–2 bullets each)
+
+1. **Future evolution**
+
+   * What might this feature become in 1–3 months?
+   * What extension points are worth preserving now?
+
+2. **Related scenarios**
+
+   * What adjacent commands/flows should remain consistent with this?
+   * Are there parity expectations (create vs update, import vs export, etc.)?
+
+3. **Failure & edge cases**
+
+   * Conflicts, offline/network failure, retries, idempotency, compatibility, rollback
+   * Input validation, security boundaries, permission checks
+
+### Expansion message template (to user)
+
+```markdown
+I understand you want to implement: <current goal>.
+
+Before diving into design, let me quickly diverge to consider three categories (to avoid rework later):
+
+1. Future evolution: <1–2 bullets>
+2. Related scenarios: <1–2 bullets>
+3. Failure/edge cases: <1–2 bullets>
+
+For this MVP, which would you like to include (or none)?
+
+1. Current requirement only (minimal viable)
+2. Add <X> (reserve for future extension)
+3. Add <Y> (improve robustness/consistency)
+4. Other: describe your preference
+```
+
+Then update PRD:
+
+* What's in MVP → `Requirements`
+* What's excluded → `Out of Scope`
+
+---
+
+## Step 6: Q&A Loop (CONVERGE)
+
+### Rules
+
+* One question per message
+* Prefer multiple-choice when possible
+* After each user answer:
+
+  * Update PRD immediately
+  * Move answered items from `Open Questions` → `Requirements`
+  * Update `Acceptance Criteria` with testable checkboxes
+  * Clarify `Out of Scope`
+
+### Question priority (recommended)
+
+1. **MVP scope boundary** (what is included/excluded)
+2. **Preference decisions** (after presenting concrete options)
+3. **Failure/edge behavior** (only for MVP-critical paths)
+4. **Success metrics & Acceptance Criteria** (what proves it works)
+
+### Preferred question format (multiple choice)
+
+```markdown
+For <topic>, which approach do you prefer?
+
+1. **Option A** — <what it means + trade-off>
+2. **Option B** — <what it means + trade-off>
+3. **Option C** — <what it means + trade-off>
+4. **Other** — describe your preference
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 7: Propose Approaches + Record Decisions (Complex tasks)
+
+After requirements are clear enough, propose 2–3 approaches (if not already done via research-first):
+
+```markdown
+Based on current information, here are 2–3 feasible approaches:
+
+**Approach A: <name>** (Recommended)
+
+* How:
+* Pros:
+* Cons:
+
+**Approach B: <name>**
+
+* How:
+* Pros:
+* Cons:
+
+Which direction do you prefer?
+```
+
+Record the outcome in PRD as an ADR-lite section:
+
+```markdown
+## Decision (ADR-lite)
+
+**Context**: Why this decision was needed
+**Decision**: Which approach was chosen
+**Consequences**: Trade-offs, risks, potential future improvements
+```
+
+---
+
+## Step 8: Final Confirmation + Implementation Plan
+
+When open questions are resolved, confirm complete requirements with a structured summary:
+
+### Final confirmation format
+
+```markdown
+Here's my understanding of the complete requirements:
+
+**Goal**: <one sentence>
+
+**Requirements**:
+
+* ...
+* ...
+
+**Acceptance Criteria**:
+
+* [ ] ...
+* [ ] ...
+
+**Definition of Done**:
+
+* ...
+
+**Out of Scope**:
+
+* ...
+
+**Technical Approach**:
+<brief summary + key decisions>
+
+**Implementation Plan (small PRs)**:
+
+* PR1: <scaffolding + tests + minimal plumbing>
+* PR2: <core behavior>
+* PR3: <edge cases + docs + cleanup>
+
+Does this look correct? If yes, I'll proceed with implementation.
+```
+
+### Subtask Decomposition (Complex Tasks)
+
+For complex tasks with multiple independent work items, create subtasks:
+
+```bash
+# Create child tasks
+CHILD1=$(python3 ./.trellis/scripts/task.py create "Child task 1" --slug child1 --parent "$TASK_DIR")
+CHILD2=$(python3 ./.trellis/scripts/task.py create "Child task 2" --slug child2 --parent "$TASK_DIR")
+
+# Or link existing tasks
+python3 ./.trellis/scripts/task.py add-subtask "$TASK_DIR" "$CHILD_DIR"
+```
+
+---
+
+## PRD Target Structure (final)
+
+`prd.md` should converge to:
+
+```markdown
+# <Task Title>
+
+## Goal
+
+<why + what>
+
+## Requirements
+
+* ...
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+* [ ] ...
+
+## Definition of Done
+
+* ...
+
+## Technical Approach
+
+<key design + decisions>
+
+## Decision (ADR-lite)
+
+Context / Decision / Consequences
+
+## Out of Scope
+
+* ...
+
+## Technical Notes
+
+<constraints, references, files, research notes>
+```
+
+---
+
+## Anti-Patterns (Hard Avoid)
+
+* Asking user for code/context that can be derived from repo
+* Asking user to choose an approach before presenting concrete options
+* Meta questions about whether to research
+* Staying narrowly on the initial request without considering evolution/edges
+* Letting brainstorming drift without updating PRD
+
+---
+
+## Integration with Start Workflow
+
+After brainstorm completes (Step 8 confirmation approved), the flow continues to the Task Workflow's **Phase 2: Prepare for Implementation**:
+
+```text
+Brainstorm
+  Step 0: Create task directory + seed PRD
+  Step 1–7: Discover requirements, research, converge
+  Step 8: Final confirmation → user approves
+  ↓
+Task Workflow Phase 2 (Prepare for Implementation)
+  Code-Spec Depth Check (if applicable)
+  → Research codebase (based on confirmed PRD)
+  → Configure code-spec context (jsonl files)
+  → Activate task
+  ↓
+Task Workflow Phase 3 (Execute)
+  Implement → Check → Complete
+```
+
+The task directory and PRD already exist from brainstorm, so Phase 1 of the Task Workflow is skipped entirely.

+
+# Break the Loop - Deep Bug Analysis
+
+When debug is complete, use this for deep analysis to break the "fix bug -> forget -> repeat" cycle.
+
+---
+
+## Analysis Framework
+
+Analyze the bug you just fixed from these 5 dimensions:
+
+### 1. Root Cause Category
+
+Which category does this bug belong to?
+
+| Category | Characteristics | Example |
+|----------|-----------------|---------|
+| **A. Missing Spec** | No documentation on how to do it | New feature without checklist |
+| **B. Cross-Layer Contract** | Interface between layers unclear | API returns different format than expected |
+| **C. Change Propagation Failure** | Changed one place, missed others | Changed function signature, missed call sites |
+| **D. Test Coverage Gap** | Unit test passes, integration fails | Works alone, breaks when combined |
+| **E. Implicit Assumption** | Code relies on undocumented assumption | Timestamp seconds vs milliseconds |
+
+### 2. Why Fixes Failed (if applicable)
+
+If you tried multiple fixes before succeeding, analyze each failure:
+
+- **Surface Fix**: Fixed symptom, not root cause
+- **Incomplete Scope**: Found root cause, didn't cover all cases
+- **Tool Limitation**: grep missed it, type check wasn't strict
+- **Mental Model**: Kept looking in same layer, didn't think cross-layer
+
+### 3. Prevention Mechanisms
+
+What mechanisms would prevent this from happening again?
+
+| Type | Description | Example |
+|------|-------------|---------|
+| **Documentation** | Write it down so people know | Update thinking guide |
+| **Architecture** | Make the error impossible structurally | Type-safe wrappers |
+| **Compile-time** | Strict type checking, no escape hatches | Signature change causes compile error |
+| **Runtime** | Monitoring, alerts, scans | Detect orphan entities |
+| **Test Coverage** | E2E tests, integration tests | Verify full flow |
+| **Code Review** | Checklist, PR template | "Did you check X?" |
+
+### 4. Systematic Expansion
+
+What broader problems does this bug reveal?
+
+- **Similar Issues**: Where else might this problem exist?
+- **Design Flaw**: Is there a fundamental architecture issue?
+- **Process Flaw**: Is there a development process improvement?
+- **Knowledge Gap**: Is the team missing some understanding?
+
+### 5. Knowledge Capture
+
+Solidify insights into the system:
+
+- [ ] Update `.trellis/spec/guides/` thinking guides
+- [ ] Update relevant `.trellis/spec/` docs
+- [ ] Create issue record (if applicable)
+- [ ] Create feature ticket for root fix
+- [ ] Update check guidelines if needed

+## Core Philosophy
+
+> **The value of debugging is not in fixing the bug, but in making this class of bugs never happen again.**
+
+Three levels of insight:
+1. **Tactical**: How to fix THIS bug
+2. **Strategic**: How to prevent THIS CLASS of bugs
+3. **Philosophical**: How to expand thinking patterns
+
+30 minutes of analysis saves 30 hours of future debugging.
+
+---
+
+## After Analysis: Immediate Actions
+
+**IMPORTANT**: After completing the analysis above, you MUST immediately:
+
+1. **Update spec/guides** - Don't just list TODOs, actually update the relevant files:
+   - If it's a cross-platform issue → update `cross-platform-thinking-guide.md`
+   - If it's a cross-layer issue → update `cross-layer-thinking-guide.md`
+   - If it's a code reuse issue → update `code-reuse-thinking-guide.md`
+   - If it's domain-specific → update `backend/*.md` or `frontend/*.md`
+
+2. **Sync templates** - After updating `.trellis/spec/`, sync to `src/templates/markdown/spec/`
+
+3. **Commit the spec updates** - This is the primary output, not just the analysis text
+
+> **The analysis is worthless if it stays in chat. The value is in the updated specs.**
