Project Idea: [INSERT YOUR IDEA OR PROJECT DESCRIPTION]

Role: user Content:

Part 1 For each of the six Starbursting categories — Who, What, When, Where, Why, and How — generate up to 6 high-quality, thought-provoking questions. These should aim to:

• Challenge assumptions

• Reveal blind spots

• Surface critical decisions or dependencies

• Expose risks and opportunities

Do not generate filler just to meet the count. Fewer, sharper questions are better than many vague ones.

Part 2 Prioritize the Top 5 Questions

Once all questions are generated:

1. Evaluate each question using two criteria:

2. Score each question on a scale of 1 to 5 for both criteria.

3. Identify the top 5 questions based on the highest combined average scores.

Part 3 Answer the Top 5 Questions

Provide a detailed, strategic answer to each of the top 5 questions. In your answers:

• Expose any gaps or contradictions in the idea

• Highlight key risks or limitations

• Point to specific opportunities for innovation or growth

• Flag anything that requires clarification or further exploration

Part 4: Creative Twist

Finally, add one bold, perspective-shifting question that begins with:

"What if..."

This question should flip the concept on its head or introduce a radical new lens that invites unconventional thinking.

Format of Output

1. Full List of Questions
