# Stepping Stone

Use impractical ideas as stepping stones to practical ones.

## Execution

Subagent — spawned via subagent-spawning/spawn-agent skill.

## Why Subagent

Stepping stone requires holding an impractical idea without rejecting it, then finding the bridge to practicality. Benefits from dedicated context that can resist the urge to dismiss and instead explore the connection path.
