Operator Skills
Reusable Claude skills for startup operators and founders.
Skills are instruction sets that tell Claude how to handle specific tasks. Instead of explaining what you need every time, you invoke a skill and Claude knows what to do.
/coach → Think through a problem with a radically candid advisor
/investor-audits → Draft accurate responses to investor audit requests
/contract-review → Get a risk assessment on any vendor or services contract
