What problem does it solve?
Founders and indie operators often face high-stakes decisions — pricing, hiring, raising vs. bootstrapping, killing a project — without access to experienced advisors. This Skill convenes a simulated council of eight well-documented founders and operators (Jason Fried, Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Jensen Huang, Bob Iger, Paul Graham, Naval Ravikant, Sara Blakely) who apply their published frameworks to your specific situation, deliberately disagree with each other, and synthesize a recommendation.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Persona-grounded advisory takes: Each member's perspective is built from dossiers of their actual published frameworks and positions, with strict rules against fabricated quotes or invented endorsements.
- Structured disagreement mapping: Sessions seat 3–5 members including a designated dissenter, then surface the genuine trade-offs behind conflicting advice and what evidence would settle each.
- Optional live research pass: Integrates with deep-research, watch-video, and last30days skills to ground takes in what members have actually said, with citations.
- Use Case: You're deciding whether to raise prices on your SaaS. Run a council session — Blakely and Fried argue for charging real money, Bezos counters with the low-margin flywheel, and the chair's synthesis fits the recommendation to your stage, then hands off to the decide skill to formalize the call.
Quick Start
Ask the council to weigh in on your decision, for example: "Convene the maker council on whether I should raise my first round or keep bootstrapping."
