Fine to try.

Front stage for /data2story-pro when the reader has no dataset — only a vague idea. Converges the idea into a concrete, data-backed topic through a sparring-partner dialogue (anti-sycophantic, feasibility-pressure-tested), then acquires a REAL dataset through find-data, with a user checkpoint after each. Returns a validated DATA_DIR for the main pipeline. Not a newsroom role — runs upstream of Detective, before any dataset exists. Real data only; never a reason to synthesize data.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'ideation' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'ideation' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named ideation already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/QinghongLin/data2story-skill' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '63a55c15f3fac13239263cfa1361fe2ef04d8df1' -- 'skills/data2story-pro/ideation' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/data2story-pro/ideation' ~/.agents/skills/'ideation' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'ideation' ~/.claude/skills/'ideation' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
