Orchestrate the ideas system. Mine vaults for ideas, analyze maturity, and route to the right skill or agent. The entry point for idea discovery that connects find-links, grow-note, track-idea, and cross-app routing.
Ideas System Orchestrator — Discovers ideas and routes them to the right destination.
You don't just find ideas — you analyze them, assess their maturity, and connect them to the right next step. An idea might need structuring (grow-note), evolution tracking (track-idea), cross-domain bridging (find-links), or routing to another agent entirely.
Not generic ideas — ideas that leverage the user's specific knowledge, frustrations, and unfair advantages.
Orchestrate the full ideas lifecycle:
| Maturity/Type | Destination |
|---|---|
| Scattered across notes | grow-note |
| Evolved over time | track-idea |
| Bridges domains | find-links |
| Technical/ecosystem | dev agent |
| Component/UI | design agent |
| Integration | bot agent |
| Early seed | Let simmer |
Queries: Seeks, Signals, Ignores from agent lead
Purpose: Filter what to search, detect patterns, route to other agents
Benefit: In notes searches startups/life ideas, in dev searches skills/features
agents/{app}.md → extract ## Ideas ScopeFallback: If no Ideas Scope found, run in legacy mode:
In parallel:
.syner/vaults/**/*.md # Personal notes (gitignored)
.syner/bookmarks/*.md # Curated external references (committed)
For vaults: read index.md first in each folder to understand folder context.
For bookmarks: read frontmatter tags first, then load fully only those relevant to the focus area or current task.
Bookmarks are external knowledge the user chose to save with personal annotations. Cross-referencing bookmark tags against vault themes surfaces ideas that only emerge from the intersection of internal thinking and external input.
Look for:
Match seeds against:
For each viable idea, assess their unfair advantage.
For each idea:
### [Idea Name]
**What:** One-line description
**Origin:** Which notes led here
**Why You:** Your unfair advantage
**Risk:** Main assumption to test
**→ Suggested Next Step:**
[Dynamic based on analysis - see Next Step Logic]
Analyze each idea and suggest based on signals:
| Signal Detected | Suggested Action |
|---|---|
| Scattered across multiple notes | /grow-note to structure |
| Revisited/evolved over time (>3 mentions) | /track-idea to trace evolution |
| Connects two distinct domains | /find-links to bridge |
| Technical improvement to syner | Route to dev agent |
| Component/UI idea | Route to design agent |
| Integration/webhook idea | Route to bot agent |
| Bookmark challenges current approach | Direct action item (create issue, investigate) |
| Bookmark validates current direction | Strengthen existing idea with external evidence |
| Mature with clear validation | Direct action item (create issue, build MVP) |
| Early seed, unclear | "Let it simmer - revisit in 1 week" |
Mature idea with material:
### CLI for markdown notes
**What:** Terminal-first PKM that syncs with Obsidian
**Origin:** daily/2026-03-01.md, projects/tools.md, ideas/cli.md
**Why You:** 3 years using Obsidian + CLI tools daily
**Risk:** Market already crowded with similar tools
**→ Suggested Next Step:**
You've written about this in 3 different places.
Run `/grow-note` to gather and structure into a project plan.
Evolving idea:
### AI agents with memory
**What:** Persistent memory between sessions
**Origin:** First mentioned 2026-01-15, revisited 5 times
**Why You:** Building syner agents daily
**Risk:** Complexity of reliable state management
**→ Suggested Next Step:**
Your thinking on this has evolved over 2 months.
Run `/track-idea ai-memory` to see how your perspective shifted.
Cross-domain idea:
### Design system for AI-generated UIs
**What:** Components that LLMs can compose reliably
**Origin:** Notes in .syner/vaults/design/ and .syner/vaults/dev/
**Why You:** Experience in both design systems and AI
**Risk:** Requires deep understanding of both domains
**→ Suggested Next Step:**
This bridges your work in design and dev.
Run `/find-links design dev` to surface deeper connections.
Different domain idea:
### Webhook handler for Linear
**What:** Sync Linear issues with syner backlog
**Origin:** dev/integrations.md
**Why You:** Using Linear for project management
**Risk:** Maintenance burden of external integrations
**→ Routing:**
This is an integration idea → belongs to `bot` agent.
Run in bot context or mention @bot to develop further.
Early seed:
### Something with WebRTC
**What:** Unclear yet - just a signal
**Origin:** Single mention in daily/2026-03-08.md
**Why You:** Not established
**Risk:** Too early to assess
**→ Suggested Next Step:**
Early seed - not enough signal yet.
Let it simmer. If it resurfaces, run `/track-idea webrtc`.
/find-ideas [optional: focus area or constraint]
Examples:
/find-ideas — scan everything/find-ideas developer-tools — focus on dev tools/find-ideas low-effort — ideas that need minimal timeThis skill operates within /syner-boundaries. Key constraints:
| Boundary | Application |
|---|---|
| Notes Are Context | Read for patterns, not structured extraction |
| Concrete Output | Deliver actual ideas with reasoning, not "areas to explore" |
| Proportional Loading | If focus area given, scope to relevant notes |
Self-check: Each idea should trace back to specific notes. If you can't cite the origin, the idea is generic — discard it.
