Description

Quick idea capture with minimal overhead. Takes description as parameter and dumps to inbox immediately with source extraction if mentioned.

Parameters

• description (required): The idea description (e.g., "Add dark mode support" or "Jack suggested export to CSV feature")

Execution Flow (main)

Phase 0: Check Customization

0. Read the "👩‍💻 DEVELOPER CUSTOMIZATIONS" section
   • Use Grep tool to find the start of the section
   • Read everything below that line contained in this document til the end of the file
   • Make sure to consider what was said there with high priority
   • If anything conflicts with the rest of the workflow, prioritize the "developer customizations"

Phase 1: Setup Validation

1. Check Ideas Infrastructure
   • Use Glob tool to verify: Glob Context/Backlog Ideas-Inbox.md
   • If Ideas-Inbox.md missing:

     ❌ Ideas infrastructure not found!
     Run /ctxk:proj:init to setup ContextKit backlog system.
     

     → END (exit with error)

Phase 2: Quick Processing

2. Parse Description and Extract Source

   • Take description from command parameter
   • If no description provided: ERROR "Description required: /ctxk:bckl:add-idea 'Your idea here'"
   • Extract source if mentioned: Look for patterns like:
     • "Jack said...", "Customer suggested...", "Sarah mentioned..."
     • "User reported...", "Support ticket mentioned..."
     • If found: Extract as source, clean description
     • If not found: Source = "Me"

3. Generate ID and Create Entry

   • Use Read tool to read Ideas-Inbox.md: Read Context/Backlog/Ideas-Inbox.md
   • Generate next sequential ID: IDEA-001, IDEA-002, etc.
   • Create title from description (fix obvious typos, keep intent)
   • Generate current date

4. Add to Ideas Inbox

   • Use Edit tool to add entry at top of "Ideas Awaiting Evaluation" section:

     ## [IDEA-###] [Title from description]
     **Added**: YYYY-MM-DD
     **Source**: [Extracted source or "Me"]
     **Context**: [Full description if longer than title]
     

5. Show Success Message

   💡 Idea captured: [IDEA-###] [Title]
   📁 Added to Context/Backlog/Ideas-Inbox.md
   🔄 Run /ctxk:bckl:prioritize-ideas to evaluate and prioritize
   

Error Conditions

• "No description provided" → Show usage: /ctxk:bckl:add-idea "Your idea description"
• "Ideas-Inbox.md missing" → Run /ctxk:proj:init to setup infrastructure
• "File write failed" → Check permissions and disk space

Source Extraction Patterns

Look for these patterns in description and extract as source:

• "Jack said we need dark mode" → Source: "Jack", Description: "Dark mode support"
• "Customer reported wanting CSV export" → Source: "Customer", Description: "CSV export functionality"
• "Support ticket mentioned offline mode" → Source: "Support ticket", Description: "Offline mode"
• "Add dark mode" → Source: "Me", Description: "Dark mode support"

Integration Points

• Quick capture: Minimal questions, fast entry
• Evaluation later: /ctxk:bckl:prioritize-ideas handles all assessment
• Source tracking: Basic attribution for follow-up
