About scientific-brainstorming

scientific-brainstorming
Facilitates evidence-aware scientific ideation
scientific-brainstorming is an agent skill that helps create, organise, challenge and transparently rank candidate research directions. It runs ideation with independent generation, structured discussion, explicit assumptions, transparent evaluation and adversarial critique. The skill treats every output as a proposal, not a finding. It is explicit that creativity methods can change how many ideas come out and who takes part, but no method is shown to improve originality, usefulness or scientific validity across the board. The evidence base and its limits are summarised in a sources file. The skill keeps separate the activities of generating ideas, judging them and recording assumptions, so that a favourite idea does not get judged by the same process that produced it. Use it at the start of a project, when you want a wide set of options to test, or when you need a ranked shortlist with the reasoning shown. It is part of the k-dense-ai scientific agent skills repository on GitHub, which has about 49,600 stars. The listing shows it as free, and it has about 2,100 installs. Its security audits show passes from Gen Agent Trust Hub, Socket and Snyk.
