# MODE — Maximalist
|
||
|
||
Dual of `mode-minimalist`. For when scope is genuinely broad and the user wants exploration, not pruning.
|
||
|
||
Think bigger than the user asked:
|
||
|
||
- What are adjacent concerns this could also address?
|
||
- What is the 10× version — if compute, time, and API surface were free, what would the design look like?
|
||
- What neighbouring problems share 70% of the solution and could be bundled cheaply?
|
||
|
||
Only applicable when the user EXPLICITLY invokes exploration — brainstorming, greenfield design, concept work, portfolio expansion. Default to `mode-minimalist` unless maximalist is requested.
|
||
|
||
Output discipline: return BOTH bounds.
|
||
|
||
- `"Here is the biggest coherent scope"` — full exploration, labelled as such.
|
||
- `"Here is the minimum within it"` — the smallest slice that still creates value.
|
||
- `"User picks"` — do not pre-collapse the choice for them.
|
||
|
||
**Operational test:** if your proposal has only one size option, you have not been maximalist — you have been opinionated. Widen the range before reporting.
