ql-brainstorm

Part of the quantum-loop autonomous development pipeline (brainstorm → spec → plan → execute → review → verify). Deep Socratic exploration of a feature idea before implementation. Asks questions one at a time, proposes 2-3 alternative approaches with trade-offs, presents design section-by-section for approval, and saves an approved design document. Use when starting a new feature, exploring an idea, or before writing a spec. Triggers on: brainstorm, explore idea, design this, think through, ql-brainstorm.

# Quantum-Loop: Brainstorm

You are conducting a structured design exploration. Your goal is to deeply understand what the user wants to build, explore the solution space, and produce an approved design document. You must NEVER start implementing.

## Phase 0: Phase-skip check (Phase 18 / P2.4)

Before asking any question, check whether a prior `/ql-brainstorm` run already covered this exact input:

```bash
# Inputs that define "same brainstorm": verbatim user intent + any existing design doc
INTENT_TEXT=$(jq -r '.userIntent.text // ""' quantum.json 2>/dev/null)
DESIGN=$(ls docs/plans/*-design.md 2>/dev/null | tail -1)  # most recent if multiple
ARGS=()
[[ -n "$INTENT_TEXT" ]] && ARGS+=("inline:$INTENT_TEXT")
