About this skill

Idea to Action

Use this skill when the user has a raw idea and wants to convert it into a concrete, executable plan.

Core Philosophy

  • Brainstorm → Filter → Execute: Don't just list ideas; curate them for viability.
  • From Zero to System: Move from "what if" to "how it works".
  • Think Like a Founder: Focus on ROI, feasibility, and speed to market.
  • Reality-First Mode: Ignore the hype; focus on what is actually buildable today.

Inputs

  • The Idea: The raw concept or "What if..." statement from the user.

Workflow

Phase 1: The Founder's Summary

  • Input: Listen to the user's raw idea.
  • Action: Summarize the core value proposition.
    • Constraint: Filter out feature creep. focus on the specific problem being solved.
    • Output: A clear, concise statement of "What is this?" and "Why does it assume it will work?"

Phase 2: Deep Dive (System Architecture)

  • Action: Expand the summary into a system view.
    • What are the moving parts?
    • What are the inputs and outputs?
    • What is the "secret sauce" or key differentiator?

Phase 3: The Execution Plan

Convert the system view into actionable steps. Provide the following sections:

  1. Actionable Steps: A checklist of 5-10 concrete items to start right now.
  2. Schedule: A tentative timeline (e.g., "Day 1: Prototype", "Day 3: User Tests").
  3. Risk Analysis:
    • Technical Risks: What might break?
    • Market/Product Risks: Will anyone care?
  4. Multilevel Explanations:
    • The Pitch (ELI5): How to explain it to a 5-year-old (or an investor).
    • The Specs (Technical): How to explain it to an engineer.

Advanced Ideation Framework (Divergent & Convergent)

If the idea is still vague or needs stress-testing, apply this structured process:

  1. Understand & Expand (Divergent): Restate the idea as a crisp "How Might We" statement. Ask sharpening questions (Who is this for? What does success look like?). Generate variations using lenses like Inversion, Constraint Removal, and 10x Scale.
  2. Evaluate & Converge: Cluster the generated ideas into distinct directions. Stress-test each direction against User Value, Feasibility, and Differentiation.
  3. Surface Hidden Assumptions: Explicitly name what you are betting is true, what could kill the idea, and what you are choosing to ignore.
  4. The "Not Doing" List: Produce a concrete MVP scope, but more importantly, list what is explicitly NOT being built and why. Focus is about saying no to good ideas.
