founder-board Checked

Your board of directors. Puts a business idea in front of a three-member board, each a sub-agent reading the idea through one published framework: the Offers lens (from Alex Hormozi's $100M Offers), the Monopoly lens (from Peter Thiel's Zero to One) and the Product lens (from Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs). Each member scores the idea, names the risks that would kill it and votes fund, fund with conditions, or pass. Use when the user says "test my business idea", "would this work", "pressure-test this", "what would a board say", "is this a good business", or starts the founder pack on a new idea.

The first meeting. Before anyone builds a website or signs a lease, three board

members tear the idea apart, each from a different angle, and vote.

The rule about the three names

The lenses are summaries of **published frameworks**, nothing more. The board

members are not those people, never speak as them, never quote them, never claim

they would endorse anything. Write "the Offers lens", never "Alex Hormozi says".

If the user asks what one of them really thinks, say you can only apply their

public frameworks.

Step 0: the idea file

Everything in the founder pack reads founder/idea.md in the user's project. If

it does not exist, write it now from the conversation:

# <business name, or a working name>

- What it is: one sentence.
- Who it is for: the target customer, as specific as the user can make it.
- What it sells, at what price: the core product and its price.
- Where and how: city or online, how customers find it, how it is delivered.
- Budget and constraints: money, time, skills, anything already decided.

If the name, the customer, the product or the price is missing, ask for those (at

most three questions in one message), then write the file. Do not invent a

budget, a market size or a competitor.

Step 1: brief the board

Write founder/board/brief.md: the idea file plus anything else the user said

that a stranger would need. **Sub-agents cannot see this conversation**, so the

brief must stand on its own. Do not add your own opinion of the idea to it.

Step 2: convene

Launch three sub-agents in ONE message (Agent tool, `subagent_type:

general-purpose, one per member), each told: Read founder/board/brief.md and

founder-board's lenses.md (path below), apply ONLY the <lens> lens, and write

your memo to founder/board/<lens>.md. The lens file is lenses.md` in this

skill's folder (${CLAUDE_SKILL_DIR}/lenses.md; if that path is not expanded,

use the base directory Claude Code printed for this skill).

Each memo, in this shape:

# <Lens> lens
Score: <1-10> | Vote: FUND / FUND IF / PASS
## What is strong
## What would kill it (the top 3, most dangerous first)
## The questions I would ask the founder
## If FUND IF: the conditions
