# Brainstorm — Solution-Space Map (Brainstorm the Intervention)
Jumping on the first solution leaves **the rest of the solution space unknown**.
The user picks; the model draws the space.
Origin: Brainstorm the Intervention — see skills/loop/references/talk-source.md.
## Iron Rules
1. **Implement nothing yet.** Output is a map of solutions, not a solution.
2. Not 10 near-duplicates — spread candidates **diverse in time horizon and approach**.
## Procedure
1. Get problem definition and constraints (timeline, people, cost) from `$ARGUMENTS` +
conversation context. If empty or vague, ask back once for a measurable statement:
which metric, how bad, since when, for whom — one round only.
2. When a codebase is in scope, **search it first** (or spawn the `unknowns:unknowns-scout`
agent with the Agent tool) for machinery that already exists but sits disconnected —
the cheapest candidates are usually wiring, not building.
3. Generate **~10** candidate interventions, spread across the time axis: ship this
afternoon / short-term (1–2 weeks) / mid-term (quarter) / quarter-long bets.
4. Attach to each candidate: **name / one-line description / expected impact (what
improves, by how much) / effort size (S/M/L/XL) / key risks / how to measure success**,
plus **`Found in code — <path>`** when it builds on machinery already in the repo.
5. Present arranged by **impact × effort** (a plugin extension of the source's single
time axis) — quick wins and big bets distin
