fix: standardize variable naming from {project_root} to {project-root} (#1217) 
Fixed inconsistent variable naming in workflow instruction files across
CIS, BMGD, and BMM modules. The standard variable format uses hyphens
({project-root}) not underscores ({project_root}).

Affected files:
- CIS: problem-solving, innovation-strategy, design-thinking, storytelling
- BMGD: brainstorm-game, narrative, create-story checklist
- BMM: excalidraw diagrams, create-story checklist

Design Thinking Workflow

Type: Interactive Document Workflow Module: Creative Intelligence System (CIS)

Purpose

Guides human-centered design processes through the complete design thinking methodology: Empathize, Define, Ideate, Prototype, and Test. Creates solutions deeply rooted in user needs by combining empathy-driven research with systematic creative problem-solving.

Distinctive Features

  • Phase-Based Structure: Full five-phase design thinking journey from empathy to testing
  • Method Library: Curated collection of design methods in design-methods.csv organized by phase
  • Context Integration: Accepts design briefs or user research via data attribute
  • Facilitation Principles: Guides divergent thinking before convergent action, emphasizes rapid prototyping over discussion

Usage

# Basic invocation
workflow design-thinking

# With project context
workflow design-thinking --data /path/to/product-context.md

Inputs

  • design_challenge: Problem or opportunity being explored
  • users_stakeholders: Primary users and affected parties
  • constraints: Time, budget, technology limitations
  • recommended_inputs: Existing research or context documents

Outputs

File: {output_folder}/design-thinking-{date}.md

Structure:

  • Design challenge statement and point-of-view
  • User insights and empathy mapping
  • "How Might We" questions and problem framing
  • Generated solution concepts
  • Prototype designs and test plans
  • Validated learning and iteration roadmap

Workflow Components

  • workflow.yaml - Configuration with design_methods CSV reference
  • instructions.md - 7-step facilitation guide through design thinking phases
  • template.md - Structured output format
  • design-methods.csv - Phase-specific design techniques library
