System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

Many drafts, specs, and pitches receive either vague encouragement or harsh criticism that leaves the author no clearer about how to scale the idea or avoid catastrophic failure. This Skill finds the latent, larger version of an idea, shows how to expand it concretely, and identifies the existential risks with actionable mitigations so authors leave more ambitious and more prepared.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Kernel extraction: Distills the one-sentence core insight the idea is actually about and explains why it matters.
  • Bolder expansions: Proposes 2–3 concrete, actionable ways to make the idea far more valuable, including at least one reframing of audience or delivery.
  • Risk-focused survivability: Identifies the top 2–4 existential landmines with why they are real and specific experiments or design fixes to defuse them.
  • Use Case: A PM submits a rough spec and receives a crisp kernel, an ambitious roadmap of 2–3 next bets, prioritized experiments to validate product-market fit quickly, and an upgraded 2–3 sentence pitch for stakeholders.

Quick Start

Paste your draft or proposal and ask: Please find the kernel of this idea, propose two to three concrete bolder expansions, list the top two to four landmines with mitigation plans, and finish with a two to three sentence upgraded pitch.
