What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 19392f7. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.
Tool permissions
Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.
From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.
Runs code
No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
No URLs in SKILL.md.
From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.
Credentials
Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.
From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.
Context cost
Intl Expansion loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~4.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 68 tokens; SKILL.md has 457 words of instructions outside code blocks.
Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.
Safety
Auto-check passed
The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.
Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Quick Start
Decision sequence: Market selection → Entry mode → Regulatory assessment → Localization plan → GTM strategy → Team structure → Launch.
Market Selection Framework
Scoring Matrix
| Factor | Weight | How to Assess |
|---|---|---|
| Market size (addressable) | 25% | TAM in target segment, willingness to pay |
| Competitive intensity | 20% | Incumbent strength, market gaps |
| Regulatory complexity | 20% | Barriers to entry, compliance cost, timeline |
| Cultural distance | 15% | Language, business practices, buying behavior |
| Existing traction | 10% | Inbound demand, existing customers, partnerships |
| Operational complexity | 10% | Time zones, infrastructure, payment systems |
Entry Modes
| Mode | Investment | Control | Risk | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Export (sell remotely) | Low | Low | Low | Testing demand |
| Partnership (reseller/distributor) | Medium | Medium | Medium | Markets with strong local requirements |
| Local team (hire in-market) | High | High | High | Strategic markets with proven demand |
| Entity (full subsidiary) | Very high | Full | High | Major markets, regulatory requirement |
| Acquisition | Highest | Full | Highest | Fast market entry with existing base |
Default path: Export → Partnership → Local team → Entity (graduate as revenue justifies).
Localization Checklist
Product
- Language (UI, documentation, support content)
- Currency and pricing (local pricing, not just conversion)
- Payment methods (varies wildly by market)
- Date/time/number formats

Key Questions
- "Is there pull from the market, or are we pushing?"
- "What's the cost of entry vs the 3-year revenue opportunity?"
- "Can we serve this market from HQ, or do we need boots on the ground?"
- "What's the regulatory timeline? Can we launch before the paperwork is done?"
- "Who's winning in this market and what would it take to displace them?"
Common Mistakes
| Mistake | Why It Happens | Prevention |
|---|---|---|
| Entering too many markets at once | FOMO, board pressure | Max 1-2 new markets per year |
| Copy-paste GTM from home market | Assuming buyers are the same | Research local buying behavior |
| Underestimating regulatory cost | "We'll figure it out" | Regulatory assessment BEFORE committing |
| Hiring too early | Optimism | Prove demand before hiring local team |
| Wrong pricing (just converting) | Laziness | Research willingness to pay locally |
Integration with C-Suite Roles
| Role | Contribution |
|---|---|
| CEO | Market selection, strategic commitment |
| CFO | Investment sizing, ROI modeling, entity structure |
