# Hermes Agent Idea Workflow

A set of Hermes Agent skills that turn a rough product idea into a design document, an implementation specification and a single build-handoff file another agent can implement from, before any coding starts.

Idea Workflow covers the product-thinking phase that comes before a build, separating it from implementation thinking so an agent can capture what a user actually wants, clarify the intended experience, produce a design document and an optional UI design brief, write an implementation specification, and package everything into one handoff file. It explicitly does not execute or build anything itself; it produces the source material meant to feed a separate build workflow, recommending a companion project as the next step for turning that handoff into a coding plan.

A lite mode captures a quick idea as a single note plus an index entry, meant for sketches or small utilities that only need enough structure to revisit later. A full mode is for a more serious idea and produces a numbered sequence of files: idea capture, a design document, an optional UI design brief, an implementation specification, the agent build handoff, and a spec review gate, with the UI stage skippable while keeping the rest of the sequence intact.
