 # Brainstorming Techniques Data
 
 ## Creative Expansion
+
 1. **What If Scenarios**: Ask one provocative question, get their response, then ask another
 2. **Analogical Thinking**: Give one example analogy, ask them to find 2-3 more
 3. **Reversal/Inversion**: Pose the reverse question, let them work through it
 4. **First Principles Thinking**: Ask "What are the fundamentals?" and guide them to break it down
 
 ## Structured Frameworks
+
 5. **SCAMPER Method**: Go through one letter at a time, wait for their ideas before moving to next
 6. **Six Thinking Hats**: Present one hat, ask for their thoughts, then move to next hat
 7. **Mind Mapping**: Start with central concept, ask them to suggest branches
 
 ## Collaborative Techniques
+
 8. **"Yes, And..." Building**: They give idea, you "yes and" it, they "yes and" back - alternate
 9. **Brainwriting/Round Robin**: They suggest idea, you build on it, ask them to build on yours
 10. **Random Stimulation**: Give one random prompt/word, ask them to make connections
 
 ## Deep Exploration
+
 11. **Five Whys**: Ask "why" and wait for their answer before asking next "why"
 12. **Morphological Analysis**: Ask them to list parameters first, then explore combinations together
 13. **Provocation Technique (PO)**: Give one provocative statement, ask them to extract useful ideas
 
 ## Advanced Techniques
+
 14. **Forced Relationships**: Connect two unrelated concepts and ask them to find the bridge
 15. **Assumption Reversal**: Challenge their core assumptions and ask them to build from there
 16. **Role Playing**: Ask them to brainstorm from different stakeholder perspectives
 17. **Time Shifting**: "How would you solve this in 1995? 2030?"
 18. **Resource Constraints**: "What if you had only $10 and 1 hour?"
 19. **Metaphor Mapping**: Use extended metaphors to explore solutions
-20. **Question Storming**: Generate questions instead of answers first

+# Elicitation Methods Data
+
+## Core Reflective Methods
+
+**Expand or Contract for Audience**
+- Ask whether to 'expand' (add detail, elaborate) or 'contract' (simplify, clarify)
+- Identify specific target audience if relevant
+- Tailor content complexity and depth accordingly
+
+**Explain Reasoning (CoT Step-by-Step)**
+- Walk through the step-by-step thinking process
+- Reveal underlying assumptions and decision points
+- Show how conclusions were reached from current role's perspective
+
+**Critique and Refine**
+- Review output for flaws, inconsistencies, or improvement areas
+- Identify specific weaknesses from role's expertise
+- Suggest refined version reflecting domain knowledge
+
+## Structural Analysis Methods
+
+**Analyze Logical Flow and Dependencies**
+- Examine content structure for logical progression
+- Check internal consistency and coherence
+- Identify and validate dependencies between elements
+- Confirm effective ordering and sequencing
+
+**Assess Alignment with Overall Goals**
+- Evaluate content contribution to stated objectives
+- Identify any misalignments or gaps
+- Interpret alignment from specific role's perspective
+- Suggest adjustments to better serve goals
+
+## Risk and Challenge Methods
+
+**Identify Potential Risks and Unforeseen Issues**
+- Brainstorm potential risks from role's expertise
+- Identify overlooked edge cases or scenarios
+- Anticipate unintended consequences
+- Highlight implementation challenges
+
+**Challenge from Critical Perspective**
+- Adopt critical stance on current content
+- Play devil's advocate from specified viewpoint
+- Argue against proposal highlighting weaknesses
+- Apply YAGNI principles when appropriate (scope trimming)
+
+## Creative Exploration Methods
+
+**Tree of Thoughts Deep Dive**
+- Break problem into discrete "thoughts" or intermediate steps
+- Explore multiple reasoning paths simultaneously
+- Use self-evaluation to classify each path as "sure", "likely", or "impossible"
+- Apply search algorithms (BFS/DFS) to find optimal solution paths
+
+**Hindsight is 20/20: The 'If Only...' Reflection**
+- Imagine retrospective scenario based on current content
+- Identify the one "if only we had known/done X..." insight
+- Describe imagined consequences humorously or dramatically
+- Extract actionable learnings for current context
+
+## Multi-Persona Collaboration Methods
+
+**Agile Team Perspective Shift**
+- Rotate through different Scrum team member viewpoints
+- Product Owner: Focus on user value and business impact
+- Scrum Master: Examine process flow and team dynamics
+- Developer: Assess technical implementation and complexity
+- QA: Identify testing scenarios and quality concerns
+
+**Stakeholder Round Table**
+- Convene virtual meeting with multiple personas
+- Each persona contributes unique perspective on content
+- Identify conflicts and synergies between viewpoints
+- Synthesize insights into actionable recommendations
+
+**Meta-Prompting Analysis**
+- Step back to analyze the structure and logic of current approach
+- Question the format and methodology being used
+- Suggest alternative frameworks or mental models
+- Optimize the elicitation process itself
+
+## Advanced 2025 Techniques
+
+**Self-Consistency Validation**
+- Generate multiple reasoning paths for same problem
+- Compare consistency across different approaches
+- Identify most reliable and robust solution
+- Highlight areas where approaches diverge and why
+
+**ReWOO (Reasoning Without Observation)**
+- Separate parametric reasoning from tool-based actions
+- Create reasoning plan without external dependencies
+- Identify what can be solved through pure reasoning
+- Optimize for efficiency and reduced token usage
+
+**Persona-Pattern Hybrid**
+- Combine specific role expertise with elicitation pattern
+- Architect + Risk Analysis: Deep technical risk assessment
+- UX Expert + User Journey: End-to-end experience critique
+- PM + Stakeholder Analysis: Multi-perspective impact review
+
+**Emergent Collaboration Discovery**
+- Allow multiple perspectives to naturally emerge
+- Identify unexpected insights from persona interactions
+- Explore novel combinations of viewpoints
+- Capture serendipitous discoveries from multi-agent thinking
+
+## Game-Based Elicitation Methods
+
+**Red Team vs Blue Team**
+- Red Team: Attack the proposal, find vulnerabilities
+- Blue Team: Defend and strengthen the approach
+- Competitive analysis reveals blind spots
+- Results in more robust, battle-tested solutions
+
+**Innovation Tournament**
+- Pit multiple alternative approaches against each other
+- Score each approach across different criteria
+- Crowd-source evaluation from different personas
+- Identify winning combination of features
+
+**Escape Room Challenge**
+- Present content as constraints to work within
+- Find creative solutions within tight limitations
+- Identify minimum viable approach
+- Discover innovative workarounds and optimizations
+
+## Process Control
+
+**Proceed / No Further Actions**
+- Acknowledge choice to finalize current work
+- Accept output as-is or move to next step
+- Prepare to continue without additional elicitation
