    Inspect the Agent Skill "brainstorming" from https://github.com/nexu-io/open-design/blob/89d6d4ef21baf80f871595abdf6f7de6e941dd44/skills/brainstorming/SKILL.md at commit 89d6d4ef21baf80f871595abdf6f7de6e941dd44. List every install step, command, network request, credential, file read/write, external action, and rollback step. Explain whether it fits my task. Do not install or execute anything until I approve.
