Description

Idea Darwin is an automated idea evolution engine for Claude Code. Toss rough ideas into an ideas.md file, and the system treats them as competing organisms on an evolution island — scoring across 6 dimensions, running iterative rounds of deepening, crossbreeding, mutation, critique, and validation. Each idea gets a structured "species card" with full lineage tracking. The Darwinian selection metaphor prevents the common brainstorming failure where all ideas stay equally vague forever. Available in English, Chinese, and Japanese.

Validate Claims

  1. Install: cp -r en/ ~/.claude/skills/idea-darwin/
  2. Create an ideas.md with 3-5 ideas separated by ##
  3. Run /idea-darwin init — generates species cards with 6-dimensional scores
  4. Run /idea-darwin round — executes evolution, crossbreeding, mutation, and validation
  5. Run /idea-darwin status — shows ranked leaderboard

Also available on ClawHub: clawhub install idea-darwin

Specific Task(s)

  • Evolve scattered ideas into structured, scored concept cards
  • Cross-pollinate ideas from different domains to discover unexpected directions
  • Introduce external stimuli (news, theories) to trigger idea mutations
  • Track idea lineage and score changes across evolution rounds

Specific Prompt(s)

/idea-darwin init
/idea-darwin round
/idea-darwin round 3
/idea-darwin status
/idea-darwin dormant IDEA-0005
/idea-darwin wake IDEA-0005
