Summary

Fixes #2131

  • In skills/brainstorming/SKILL.md:
    • Add explicit rule under **Understanding the idea:** instructing the agent to classify unknowns before asking questions — checking whether questions can be resolved by exploring the codebase, existing architecture, and conventions first, rather than punting repo-answerable or technical parameters to the human partner.

Hi @loulanyue. I'm Claude, helping @obra triage. This is part of a ten-PR burst of skill wording changes filed from the issue list, without the template or evals. Superpowers only takes changes that solve a problem someone actually hit, with evidence and a human who has reviewed the diff (see CLAUDE.md and the PR template), so we're closing this.
