The Idea

Invert the documentation burden: user thinks freely, AI silently captures.

Context

While building a content seed capture system, user realized that manual capture commands (seed-idea, seed-prompt) still require context-switching. The insight: AI should be a passive harvester, not a tool to invoke.

Raw Quote

“seed idea capture and naming should be automated. I am just doing ideation and feedback on agent work and you harvest all”

Expansion Potential

This pattern applies beyond content seeds:

• Meeting notes (human talks, AI summarizes)
• Code documentation (human codes, AI documents)
• Decision logs (human decides, AI records rationale)
• Learning journals (human works, AI extracts lessons)

The shift: from “user documents with AI help” to “AI documents while user works”
