# Agent Creation Brainstorming Context
|
|
|
|
_Dream the soul. Discover the purpose. The build follows._
|
|
|
|
## Session Focus
|
|
|
|
You're brainstorming the **essence** of a BMAD agent - the living personality AND the utility it provides. Think character creation meets problem-solving: WHO are they, and WHAT do they DO?
|
|
|
|
**Your mission**: Discover an agent so vivid and so useful that users seek them out by name.
|
|
|
|
## The Four Discovery Pillars
|
|
|
|
### 1. WHO ARE THEY? (Identity)
|
|
|
|
- **Name** - Does it roll off the tongue? Would users remember it?
|
|
- **Background** - What shaped their expertise? Why do they care?
|
|
- **Personality** - What makes their eyes light up? What frustrates them?
|
|
- **Signature** - Catchphrase? Verbal tic? Recognizable trait?
|
|
|
|
### 2. HOW DO THEY COMMUNICATE? (Voice)
|
|
|
|
**13 Style Categories:**
|
|
|
|
- **Adventurous** - Pulp heroes, noir detectives, pirates, dungeon masters
|
|
- **Analytical** - Data scientists, forensic investigators, systems thinkers
|
|
- **Creative** - Mad scientists, artist visionaries, jazz improvisers
|
|
- **Devoted** - Overprotective guardians, loyal champions, fierce protectors
|
|
- **Dramatic** - Shakespearean actors, opera singers, theater directors
|
|
- **Educational** - Patient teachers, Socratic guides, sports coaches
|
|
- **Entertaining** - Game show hosts, comedians, improv performers
|
|
- **Inspirational** - Life coaches, mountain guides, Olympic trainers
|
|
- **Mystical** - Zen masters, oracles, cryptic sages
|
|
- **Professional** - Executive consultants, direct advisors, formal butlers
|
|
- **Quirky** - Cooking metaphors, nature documentaries, conspiracy vibes
|
|
- **Retro** - 80s action heroes, 1950s announcers, disco groovers
|
|
- **Warm** - Southern hospitality, nurturing grandmothers, camp counselors
|
|
|
|
**Voice Test**: Imagine them saying "Let's tackle this challenge." How would THEY phrase it?
|
|
|
|
### 3. WHAT DO THEY DO? (Purpose & Functions)
|
|
|
|
**The Core Problem**
|
|
|
|
- What pain point do they eliminate?
|
|
- What task transforms from grueling to effortless?
|
|
- What impossible becomes inevitable with them?
|
|
|
|
**The Killer Feature**
|
|
Every legendary agent has ONE thing they're known for. What's theirs?
|
|
|
|
**The Command Menu**
|
|
User types `*` and sees their options. Brainstorm 5-10 actions:
|
|
|
|
- What makes users sigh with relief?
|
|
- What capabilities complement each other?
|
|
- What's the "I didn't know I needed this" command?
|
|
|
|
**Function Categories to Consider:**
|
|
|
|
- **Creation** - Generate, write, produce, build
|
|
- **Analysis** - Research, evaluate, diagnose, insights
|
|
- **Review** - Validate, check, quality assurance, critique
|
|
- **Orchestration** - Coordinate workflows, manage processes
|
|
- **Query** - Find, search, retrieve, discover
|
|
- **Transform** - Convert, refactor, optimize, clean
|
|
|
|
### 4. WHAT TYPE? (Architecture)
|
|
|
|
**Simple Agent** - The Specialist
|
|
|
|
> "I do ONE thing extraordinarily well."
|
|
|
|
- Self-contained, lightning fast, pure utility with personality
|
|
|
|
**Expert Agent** - The Domain Master
|
|
|
|
> "I live in this world. I remember everything."
|
|
|
|
- Deep domain knowledge, personal memory, specialized expertise
|
|
|
|
**Module Agent** - The Team Player
|
|
|
|
> "I orchestrate workflows. I coordinate the mission."
|
|
|
|
- Workflow integration, cross-agent collaboration, professional operations
|
|
|
|
## Creative Prompts
|
|
|
|
**Identity Sparks**
|
|
|
|
1. How do they introduce themselves?
|
|
2. How do they celebrate user success?
|
|
3. What do they say when things get tough?
|
|
|
|
**Purpose Probes**
|
|
|
|
1. What 3 user problems do they obliterate?
|
|
2. What workflow would users dread WITHOUT this agent?
|
|
3. What's the first command users would try?
|
|
4. What's the command they'd use daily?
|
|
5. What's the "hidden gem" command they'd discover later?
|
|
|
|
