Foreground (blocking)

Task(subagent_type="gemini-consultant", prompt="[mode]: <question>")

Background (for context efficiency)

Task(subagent_type="gemini-consultant", prompt="[mode]: <question>", run_in_background=true)

Modes: prompt (default), brainstorm, review, compare

Brainstorming Methodologies:

divergent - Generate many diverse ideas
convergent - Refine and evaluate existing ideas
scamper - Substitute, Combine, Adapt, Modify, Put to other uses, Eliminate, Reverse
design-thinking - Human-centered, empathy-driven approach
lateral - Unexpected connections, challenge assumptions
auto - AI selects best methodology

The agent uses Gemini MCP tools (mcp__gemini__gemini, mcp__gemini__brainstorm) directly.
