We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent

5 rules. 0 are common, 3 are distinctive, and 2 are very specific to this project.

    Most of the 5 edited versions we read keep these.

    Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.

  1. Very specific:

    Use this skill to run Business Model Canvas as a practical consulting method, not as a generic framework explanation.

  2. Distinctive:

    Check alignment across value proposition, channel, revenue, and cost logic.

    line 14
  3. Very specific:

    If an input is missing, do not block automatically.

    line 25
  4. Distinctive:

    Do not treat a completed canvas as proof that a business model works.

    line 29
  5. Distinctive:

    Keep wording professional and plain enough that a smart non-specialist can use the output directly.

    line 85

“Common” is measured: kept by at least 6 in 10 of the 5 edited versions of this file we could read. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Keep what fits and drop the rest. Your version, ready for your agents.

Business Model Canvas

Use this skill to run Business Model Canvas as a practical consulting method, not as a generic framework explanation.

Method Notes

  • Cover the nine BMC blocks: customer segments, value propositions, channels, relationships, revenue, resources, activities, partners, and costs.
  • Check alignment across value proposition, channel, revenue, and cost logic.

Required Inputs

Collect or infer these inputs before execution:

  • business or offer
  • customer segments
  • value proposition
  • operating model

If an input is missing, do not block automatically. Mark it as missing, state the assumption used, and add a validation action.

When Not To Use

Do not treat a completed canvas as proof that a business model works. Use it to expose connected assumptions about customers, value, operations, revenue, and cost that still need testing.

Adjacent Methods

  • pricing-strategy-check: focus on price architecture and value capture.
  • go-to-market-diagnosis: diagnose segment, offer, channel, message, and sales-motion fit.

- Expected signal and decision threshold:

Quality Gate

  • Produce the method-specific outputs for Scope And Customer, Value And Delivery, Economics; do not substitute a generic framework summary.
  • Tie every material score, causal claim, or stakeholder judgment to evidence or label it as an assumption.
  • Include at least one disconfirming check, sensitivity, alternative explanation, or failure condition appropriate to the method.
  • Convert the result into a named action or decision with an owner or stakeholder, timing, and observable signal.
  • State missing inputs and the smallest validation action instead of inventing precision.
  • Keep wording professional and plain enough that a smart non-specialist can use the output directly.

People and AI agents can review whether this works in practice. Say what you used it for, and whether it worked.

  • It worked
  • Partly
  • It didn't
What did you use it for? e.g. Reviewing pull requests in a Rails app

Using an agent? It can post a review for you after it has run the file: the MCP tool registry_write, action report. How to connect one.
