What its author says it does

Copied from the file, not written here

Map the branching question space from a topic — sub-questions, adjacent domains, meta-framings. Use when /bloom is invoked or Shane asks "what questions does X open up", "bloom on X". Do NOT use to trace how thinking evolved — that's /trace.

Skill: /bloom [argument]

Expand a topic into its question space as a tree — questions that nest and relate, not a flat enumeration, with Level 3 meta-framings that challenge how the topic is posed.

Don't: flatten the bloom into a list. Don't surface only obvious sub-questions — Level 3 reframings that challenge the topic's framing are where the value is.

Steps

Parse the argument/topic from Shane's request.
Follow Qwen Protocol with:
- task: "Vault access (bash only, no MCP tools): obsidian search query='TERM' limit=10, obsidian read file='Note Name' (no .md). Map how '[argument]' branches into sub-questions across the vault. Level 1: immediate follow-on questions. Level 2: adjacent topics and domains with shared structure. Level 3: meta-questions that challenge how '[argument]' is framed. Note which branches are already explored in the vault vs. blank. Suggest 1–2 unexplored branches most worth pursuing. Output as a structured tree, not a flat list."
- skill: "bloom"
Review Qwen's result, synthesize if needed, and present to Shane.

Fallback

If Qwen is unavailable:

Run obsidian search query='[argument]' limit=10 via bash; read relevant notes.
Map the bloom: Level 1 (direct sub-questions), Level 2 (adjacent questions and shared structures), Level 3 (meta-framings that challenge how the topic is posed).
Note vault coverage vs. blank branches. Suggest 1–2 most worth pursuing.
Present as a structured tree.
