Startup Ideas Skill

An interactive startup ideation and planning skill for Claude Code, adapted from the Startup Factory web app.

What It Does

Walks you through an 8-stage startup planning pipeline:

1. Generate Ideas — 4 business concepts tailored to your domain/constraints
2. Personas — 2 structured target audience profiles
3. Pitch — Elevator pitch, problem statement, target audience, USP
4. Avatar — Detailed problem-aware customer avatar (A–H framework)
5. Diary — First-person diary entry from the avatar's perspective
6. Features — Avatar-aligned feature list
7. Pricing — Single-model pricing strategy (max 3 tiers)
8. Landing Page Outline — CRO-focused, section-by-section outline

Each stage pauses for your input — continue, regenerate, or adjust before moving on. You can also jump to any stage if you already have context (e.g., "I have an idea, help me with pricing").
