+# Ideation
+
+## Purpose
+
+Generate strong options quickly without locking too early onto the first plausible idea.
+
+## When to use
+
+- The user wants multiple concepts, approaches, or product directions
+- Requirements are early and the solution space is still wide
+- A team needs creative alternatives before choosing a path
+- You want to escape local maxima in product or technical thinking
+
+## Inputs to gather
+
+- Goal, audience, constraints, and success criteria
+- What is already known, tried, or ruled out
+- Time, complexity, and implementation constraints
+- The desired balance of novelty versus practicality
+
+## How to work
+
+- Produce several meaningfully different options, not minor variations of one idea.
+- Cover a range from safer to bolder approaches when useful.
+- Make tradeoffs explicit so ideas are easy to compare.
+- Keep ideas concrete enough that someone can imagine implementation or execution.
+- Narrow only after the option space is genuinely explored.
+
+## Output expectations
+
+- Distinct options with concise descriptions
+- Tradeoffs, strengths, and risks for each option
+- A recommended direction when appropriate
+
+## Quality checklist
+
+- Options are genuinely different in mechanism or strategy.
+- Ideas respect the stated constraints.
+- Tradeoffs are visible rather than implied.
+- Recommendations, if given, follow from the comparison.
+
+## Handoff notes
+
+- Note whether the ideas are exploratory, implementation-ready, or need structured narrowing next.
+- Pair with structured brainstorming when the next step is selecting and shaping one path.
