founder-plan
Skill131 starsChanged 37 days agoMITView on GitHub
Your business planner. Compiles everything the other founder skills wrote (the board's verdict, the competitors, the buyer panel, pricing, the offer, the CFO's numbers, marketing, brand, operations and the launch plan) into one business plan with a verdict at the top that is computed from the numbers, never written by hand: Profitable, Not yet (with the failing numbers) or Incomplete. Adds an executive summary and a one-page version for a partner, lender or investor. Use when the user says "write my business plan", "put it all together", "is it profitable", "give me the plan", or at the end of the founder pack.

The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
5 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 3 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
3
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Very specific: line 40
If there are no numbers, the verdict is Incomplete: offer to run /founder-cfo.
- Very specific: line 46
Write founder/summary.md, half a page, plain words:
- Distinctive: line 55
If the verdict is Not yet, the summary leads with what has to change and which skill changes it.
- Very specific: line 71
Write founder/one-pager.md for someone deciding in two minutes: the problem, the customer, the offer and price, the numbers table, the …
- Distinctive: line 82
If the user wants a PDF or a deck, offer to export the plan, but keep the markdown as the source of truth.
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.
Files
founder-plan
The last step. One document a founder can act on, or hand to a partner or a lender, built only from what the pack found.
Tool in this folder:
python3 "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/compile.py" --dir founderStep 1: see what is there
python3 "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/compile.py" --dir founder --checkprints the verdict and each check. The checks, all computed:
- Each unit earns money before fixed costs (
founder/numbers.json). - Year 1 makes an operating profit.
- The break-even fits inside capacity, if a capacity was given.
- Enough simulated buyers buy (
founder/panel/results.json; default bar 25%, change it with--min-buy-rateand say why).
If there are no numbers, the verdict is Incomplete: offer to run /founder-cfo.
List the other missing sections with the skill that fills each. Do not fill a
missing section yourself from guesses.
Step 2: the summary
Write founder/summary.md, half a page, plain words:
- What the business is and who it is for, in two sentences.
- The verdict and the three numbers behind it (margin, break-even, year 1).
- What the buyer panel and the board agreed on, and where they disagreed.
- The biggest risk and what will be done about it.
- What the founder needs to start (cash from the CFO, the first test from launch).
- The one thing to do this week.
If the verdict is Not yet, the summary leads with what has to change and which skill changes it. Never soften a failing check.
Step 3: compile
python3 "${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/compile.py" --dir founderwrites founder/business-plan.md: title, the verdict and its checks, the key numbers
table, the idea, then every section the pack produced (summary, board, competition,
panel, pricing, offer, numbers, marketing, brand, operations, launch), and what is
not done yet.
Step 4: the one-pager
Write founder/one-pager.md for someone deciding in two minutes: the problem, the
customer, the offer and price, the numbers table, the evidence (panel result,
competitor gap, any real test), what the money is for, and the ask. Same numbers as
the plan, word for word.
Rules
- The verdict comes from
compile.py. Never write Profitable by hand, and never round a failing number into a passing one. - Say once, clearly: the panel is simulated buyers and the numbers are projections; real customers and real quotes confirm them. Not financial, legal or tax advice.
- If the user wants a PDF or a deck, offer to export the plan, but keep the markdown as the source of truth.
Output
founder/summary.md, founder/business-plan.md, founder/one-pager.md. Then give
the user the verdict in one line and the one thing to do this week.

Your trail
Files you open will collect here, so you can find them again.
Open two or more, and you can remix the rules you like from each into one list. Kept in this browser only.
Now do this for your own.
Bring your CLAUDE.md, AGENTS.md or skills. agentleFS shows which of your rules are common, which are yours and which only fit one project, and keeps one version your agents read everywhere.
