The core idea is to ground discussion in a causal diagram that ties together problems & solutions, then each node/edge can have structured details (importance score, arguments, unknowns, relevant facts, etc.) to help clarify & refine the information. It also has some features for working with this information, e.g. comparing perspectives, using a table to evaluate tradeoffs between solutions.
Some example usages of the tool: deciding what to do about cars going too fast in a neighborhood [1], proposing 10% time at work [2], picking an ORM to use for a project [3].
There's still a lot I want to do (backlog [4]), but it's a start. What do y'all think?
