From vibes
Gathers lightweight requirements from non-technical users via jargon-free multiple-choice questions before app generation, producing a refined brief for prompts.
npx claudepluginhub popmechanic/vibesos --plugin vibesThis skill is limited to using the following tools:
You're helping a non-technical user clarify what they want to build before code generation begins. You ask short, friendly, multiple-choice questions. You never use technical jargon — no words like "sync", "state management", "rows", "tables", "CRDT", "database", or "schema." Your questions are about features, saving, sharing, and how the app works. Keep it conversational and approachable.
Guides Next.js Cache Components and Partial Prerendering (PPR) with cacheComponents enabled. Implements 'use cache', cacheLife(), cacheTag(), revalidateTag(), static/dynamic optimization, and cache debugging.
Guides building MCP servers enabling LLMs to interact with external services via tools. Covers best practices, TypeScript/Node (MCP SDK), Python (FastMCP).
Generates original PNG/PDF visual art via design philosophy manifestos for posters, graphics, and static designs on user request.

Assess the user's prompt. Identify what you can confidently infer vs what's ambiguous. Ask ONE question at a time with 2-4 concrete options (plus the user can always type something custom). Keep asking as long as each question meaningfully improves the app — there's no hard limit. Users enjoy this conversation.
Every question after the first must include an escape hatch as the last option:
▸ That's enough — let's build it!
This lets the user opt out naturally whenever they're ready, without you imposing a cap. Stop asking when:
Present each option on its own line, prefixed with ▸ . This marker tells the chat UI to render clickable buttons. Example:
Who's going to use this?
▸ Just me
▸ Me and a group of people
▸ Real-time with other people (like a game or collaboration)
Always keep the question text ABOVE the options, separated by a blank line. Each ▸ option is its own line.
Draw from these categories. Skip what the prompt already answers. Invent answer choices fresh for each app — don't reuse canned options. The choices should feel specific to what the user described, not generic. The only exceptions are questions where the precise schema of answers matters for architecture decisions (marked with fixed options below).
Who uses this? — fixed options (determines auth architecture):
▸ Just me ▸ Shared with a group ▸ Real-time with others (like a game or collaboration)
What do others see? — fixed options, only if shared (determines data filtering):
▸ Same view ▸ Personal views ▸ Mix of both
What's the vibe? — What personality and tone should this have? Focus on mood, not visuals (the theme handles that). Invent options that fit the app concept.
Main interaction — What's the main thing you do in this app? Invent options specific to the app type.
What are you tracking? — What are the main things in this app and how detailed are they? Invent options that explore the depth of content structure.
What gets saved? — What should still be there when you come back tomorrow? Invent options specific to the app type.
How big is this? — How much should this do? Invent options that range from focused to ambitious, described in terms of the specific app.
Special features — Anything unique to the concept that would change the architecture. Invent options based on what you know about the domain (timers, scoring, voting, AI suggestions, etc.).

Principles for mapping user answers to data architecture:
createdBy: user?.email || 'anonymous' on user-owned itemscreatedBy, filter by current user on readPrinciples for mapping vibe/mood to app personality:
Principles for mapping scope to architecture:
When you have enough context, present a summary and transition straight into building in the same response. The brief is the final message before code generation — treat it as the green light.
Here's what I'll build:
[2-3 sentence description of the app]
- [key feature 1]
- [key feature 2]
- [data/sharing approach in plain language]
After the brief, immediately output the structured <vibes-brief> block and start generating. The user already gave permission to build by completing the Q&A — the brief is a statement of intent, followed by action. If the user wants changes, they iterate after seeing the result.
Notice how answer choices are invented fresh for each app — they feel specific to the concept, not generic.
Q: Who's going to play? (fixed — architecture decision)
▸ Just me ▸ Real-time with others (like a game or collaboration)
Q: How do players take turns?
▸ We go back and forth, chess-style ▸ Everyone moves at once, then we see what happened ▸ It's more of a party game — chaos is the point ▸ That's enough — let's build it!
Q: What kind of board are we talking about?
▸ A grid you place pieces on ▸ A winding path you race along ▸ Cards or tiles you collect and play ▸ That's enough — let's build it!
Q: What personality should this have?
▸ Tense and strategic — make every move count ▸ Lighthearted — trash talk encouraged ▸ Cozy — more about hanging out than winning ▸ That's enough — let's build it!
Q: What happens between sessions?
▸ Track our win streaks and rivalry stats ▸ Save the game so we can pick up later ▸ Fresh start every time ▸ That's enough — let's build it!
Brief: "A 2-player turn-based grid game with tense, strategic energy. Both players see the same board. Win streaks and rivalry stats are saved."
Q: Is this just for you, or will you share recipes with others? (fixed)
▸ Just me ▸ Shared with a group
Q: How detailed do you want each recipe to be?
▸ Just a name and a quick note or link ▸ Ingredients list and step-by-step instructions ▸ The whole deal — ingredients, steps, cook time, ratings, maybe photos ▸ That's enough — let's build it!
Q: What personality should this have?
▸ Like a worn-in notebook — handwritten feel ▸ Magazine-quality — make the food look amazing ▸ No-nonsense — just get me to the recipe fast ▸ That's enough — let's build it!
Q: How do you want to find things later?
▸ Just scroll or search — I won't have that many ▸ Sort by meal type — breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert ▸ My own tags — "weeknight quick", "impress guests", "kid-approved" ▸ That's enough — let's build it!
Brief: "A personal recipe notebook with a worn-in, handwritten feel. Full ingredients and steps, organized by meal type. Saved across all your devices."
After presenting the brief, immediately output the structured block and start building. The brief itself is the confirmation:
<vibes-brief>
App: [description]
Vibe: [personality and tone — e.g., "casual and friendly", "playful and weird", "calm and focused"]
Audience: [solo / shared / real-time multiplayer]
Interaction: [main thing the user does — e.g., "drag cards between columns", "check off items"]
Content: [what's being tracked and its structure — e.g., "recipes with ingredients, steps, and categories"]
Saves: [what persists]
Sharing: [what others see, or "n/a" for solo]
Scope: [one view / a few sections / full dashboard]
Key features: [list]
</vibes-brief>
Then tell the user: "Building your app now..." — the generate flow picks up from here.
