# Forge Idea (alias)
This skill's flow moved into `/ideate` (`skills/ideate/SKILL.md`), which runs the same
adversarial cross-examination through the `elicit` engine's Pressure mode and records
outcomes to the decision log instead of a `forged-idea-{slug}.md` file.
Invoke `/ideate` now, telling it the user wants the current idea pressure-tested. Do not
follow any remembered version of this skill's old flow or write a `forged-idea` artifact.
