capture

Quick Capture

Fast idea capture → Linear Backlog. Extracts painpoint, propuesta y objetivo en una sola pregunta.

Linear Config

Setting	Value
Team	Skywalking
State	Backlog
Tools	linear_createIssue

Flow

1. Parse input for whatever context the user provided
2. Identify what's missing from the 3 pillars (see below)
3. Ask ONE single AskUserQuestion with only the missing pillars — never ask what the user already said
4. Create in Linear with state "Backlog"
5. Return Linear URL

The 3 Pillars

Every capture needs these 3 elements. Extract them from the user's input — only ask for what's missing:

Pillar	Question	Purpose
Painpoint	Qué problema/fricción existe hoy?	El "por qué" — qué duele, qué falla, qué falta
Propuesta	Qué se propone hacer?	El "qué" — la idea, feature, fix, cambio
Objetivo	Qué resultado se espera lograr?	El "para qué" — métrica, outcome, mejora concreta

Parsing Rules

• If user says "Add dark mode toggle" → propuesta is clear, ask painpoint + objetivo
• If user says "Los usuarios no pueden ver la app de noche, necesitamos dark mode" → painpoint + propuesta clear, ask objetivo
• If user provides all 3 → don't ask anything, create directly
• Always infer what you can. Don't re-ask what's obvious from context

Single Question Format

When asking, combine missing pillars into ONE question:

Para capturar bien esto necesito:
- **Dolor:** {pregunta sobre painpoint}
- **Objetivo:** {pregunta sobre resultado esperado}

(responde breve, 1 línea cada uno)

Issue Creation

linear_createIssue:
  teamId: "Skywalking"
  title: "{propuesta — concise}"
  description: |
    ## Painpoint
    {painpoint}

    ## Propuesta
    {propuesta}

    ## Objetivo
    {objetivo}

    ---
    *Captured via /capture — needs /shape for full discovery*
  stateId: "{backlog_state_id}"
  priority: 4  # Low - to be triaged

Priority Auto-detection

Signal in input	Priority
"broken", "roto", "down", "caído", "prod"	2 (High)
"urgent", "urgente", "asap", "blocker"	1 (Urgent)
Default	4 (Low)

Next Steps

After capture, issue follows workflow:

1. /shape {issue-id} → Full discovery, move to Shaping
2. /refine {issue-id} → Technical breakdown, agent sub-issues
3. /dev {issue-id} → Mentat orchestrates implementation

Examples

/capture "Add dark mode toggle"
→ Asks: painpoint + objetivo (propuesta already clear)
→ SKY-50 created in Backlog

/capture "Los usuarios se quejan de que no pueden usar la app de noche, agregar dark mode para mejorar retención"
→ All 3 pillars present → creates directly, no questions
→ SKY-51 created in Backlog

/capture "API rate limiting broken on prod"
→ Asks: objetivo (painpoint = broken, propuesta = fix rate limiting)
→ SKY-52 created in Backlog (priority: High — "broken" + "prod")

Decision: Capture vs Shape

Signal	Command
Quick thought, 1-3 bullets max	/capture
Ready for full discovery (AC, scope, agents)	/shape
Already defined, needs breakdown	/refine
