What it does

设计脑暴 / 实现前方案校准:当用户想把已基本成立的想法、功能方向或产品问题,在写 PRD、画 mockup 或进入开发计划前,先比较方案、确认取舍、对齐 UI/视觉约束,并收敛成可执行设计 spec 时使用。 可用中文唤起:“先脑暴一下方案”“先不要写 PRD,帮我设计几种路径”“参考 brainstorming 把这个需求变成设计 spec” “实现前先讨论设计”。问题还没定义清楚时先用 ai-collaboration-calibration;已有方案要压力测试时用 grill-me; 直接写 PRD 时用 prd-architect;grill-me 返回精确设计 gap 时,本 Skill 只输出 Design Delta。

What this skill changes about the agent has not been set out here as a list. Its SKILL.md, shown below, says it in the author’s own words.

The skill itself

A skill is instructions the model reads, so you can see what you are getting: below is the start of its SKILL.md. The front matter loads with every session, the body loads when the skill triggers, and the whole file comes with the install.

16- 英文稳定名:brainstorming
17- 分类:产品与 PRD / 认知与协作之间的方案收敛桥
18- 状态:core
19- 你可以这样叫我:先脑暴一下方案、先不要写 PRD,帮我设计几种路径、参考 brainstorming 把这个需求变成设计 spec、实现前先讨论设计
20- 适合:问题基本成立,但还没确定产品方案、信息架构、交互路径、技术切分或交付 spec,需要先探索 2-3 个可选设计并得到用户确认
21- 不适合:问题还没定义清楚,改用 ai-collaboration-calibration;已有明确方案要被拷问,改用 grill-me;已经要写正式 PRD,改用 prd-architect

23## Overview
24
25使用这个 Skill 把“可讨论的想法”推进成“可交付给 PRD、mockup 或开发计划的设计 spec”。它强调先理解上下文、逐步澄清、提出多个方案、确认设计,再进入下游 artifact。
26
27它的默认下游可以是 prd-architect、ui-mockup-desktop-workbench、prd-to-issues 或实现计划;如果方案涉及 UI/mockup/HTML 可视化,必须先对齐项目已有视觉语言,避免生成与真实产品割裂的通用页面。需要反复压测时显式进入 $solution-loop,而不是创建新的方案 mega Skill。

29本 Skill 是方案 Maker:拥有真实备选、推荐与取舍、scope、流程、状态、风险和 Design Delta;不拥有 Critic clearance、PRD/实现 readiness 或发布审批。

Why you can read it

Nothing in a skill executes. The client loads the text and the model follows it, so a skill can be audited the way a runbook is — by reading it.

What it costs in context

Skills are not billed by the call. They are paid for in context: every token the instructions occupy is a token your code, your diff and your conversation cannot use. Here is what this one takes and when it takes it.

≈90
always loaded
The name and description, so the model knows the skill exists and when to reach for it.
8,885
on trigger
The instruction body and 6 supporting files, read only when the skill fires.
4.5%
of a 200k window
Ten skills this size would take about 45% of the window before you open a file.
050k100k150k200k context window

9k tokens, estimated from the bundle at four bytes to the token, held for the rest of the session once it triggers. Heavy. Teams tend to install this one per project rather than globally, and load it only when the job comes up.

Servers bill, skills cost

A server charges by the month. A skill charges once per session, in context, and then keeps charging it for as long as the session lives.

Before and after

The same question, put to the same model twice: once as it comes, and once with these instructions loaded.

No worked example has been published for this skill yet.

The procedure it runs

The procedure has not been set out here step by step. It is in the body of its SKILL.md: the start of it is shown above, and the whole file comes with the install.

Prose, not code

These steps are written for a model to follow, not executed by a runtime. It can still be told to skip one, and it will say so when it does.

Servers it uses

None. This skill calls no MCP servers at all.

Everything it needs is in the instructions, so it works in a project with nothing connected — the model reads the file and changes how it works with what it can already reach.

Its SKILL.md does not declare which tools it asks the agent for, so what it touches is whatever the instructions themselves ask for — read them before you install it.

What it asks for
Writes filesnot declared
Network accessnot declared

This SKILL.md carries no allowed-tools line, so neither is declared. A skill grants no permissions of its own — it can only ask for tools your client already has.

What it will not do

Every skill is narrow, and the useful ones say where they stop. These are the jobs this one is the wrong tool for.

What this skill is not for has not been published here. Nothing is implied by that: it is a section the author has not filled in.

What is in the bundle

7 files, 36.7 kB on disk. Mostly text — the instructions the model reads — with 1 script in it that your client would run only if the instructions tell it to.

  • SKILL.md12.2 kB
  • agents/openai.yaml0.3 kB
  • evals/evals.json11.8 kB
  • references/design-spec-contract.md1.9 kB
  • references/maker-handoff-contract.md3.6 kB
  • references/visual-design-standards.md6.1 kB
  • scripts/check_design_spec.py0.8 kB
What is not in it

A skill installs nothing and depends on nothing: it is a folder your client reads. This one carries 1 script beside the text, so the bundle is 7 files you can review in full before installing. The MIT licence covers the templates and examples as well as the instructions.

Install

Installing copies the bundle into your project. Nothing runs at install time — the files sit on disk until the model reads them.

# Product Design Brainstorming · 9k tokens when loaded · macOS, Linux mkdir -p .claude/skills && t=$(mktemp -d) && curl -fsSL -o "$t/bundle.tar.gz" https://mcprush.com/api/skills/product-design-brainstorming/bundle.tar.gz && tar -xzf "$t/bundle.tar.gz" -C "$t" && [ -d "$t/product-design-brainstorming" ] && { [ ! -e .claude/skills/product-design-brainstorming ] || { mv .claude/skills/product-design-brainstorming "$t/.previous" && echo "Previous copy moved to $t/.previous"; }; } && mv "$t/product-design-brainstorming" .claude/skills/ && echo "Installed .claude/skills/product-design-brainstorming"

npx mcprush@latest skill add pangkaifeng/product-design-brainstorming

Windows PowerShell says 'running scripts is disabled on this system'? Run Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser RemoteSigned once, or type npx.cmd instead of npx (codex.cmd, gemini.cmd, grok.cmd likewise). PowerShell 7 needs neither. Writes to .claude/skills/product-design-brainstorming/ in the current project. For every project instead, run mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && t=$(mktemp -d) && curl -fsSL -o "$t/bundle.tar.gz" https://mcprush.com/api/skills/product-design-brainstorming/bundle.tar.gz && tar -xzf "$t/bundle.tar.gz" -C "$t" && [ -d "$t/product-design-brainstorming" ] && { [ ! -e ~/.claude/skills/product-design-brainstorming ] || { mv ~/.claude/skills/product-design-brainstorming "$t/.previous" && echo "Previous copy moved to $t/.previous"; }; } && mv "$t/product-design-brainstorming" ~/.claude/skills/ && echo "Installed ~/.claude/skills/product-design-brainstorming" (macOS, Linux) — or add --global to the npx line. The curl line replaces .claude/skills/product-design-brainstorming/ only after the download succeeds, so files left there by another skill of the same name, or by an older release, do not mix in. A copy already there is moved aside, not deleted, and the line prints where. It appears as brainstorming in Gemini CLI, Codex, Copilot and Grok (its own name); Claude Code lists it by the folder name, product-design-brainstorming.

Which clients pick it up on their own

A skill is a folder of text. Most of these read a skills folder and pick it up without being told; the rest take the same folder another way — an upload in the app, a parameter on an API call — and then choose it by its description just the same.

Versions

Its author publishes no version number, so there is nothing here to pin to: what you install is the folder as it stands today. Instructions change more often than APIs do — a skill can be rewritten entirely without anything it depends on moving.

Pinning

Nothing to pin to: this skill carries no version number of its own. What you install is what the folder holds on the day you install it.
