What it does

Strategy Frameworks is an agent skill from magnus919/hermes-profiles. CEO methodology for strategic planning, competitive analysis, growth strategy, and resource allocation. Covers OKRs, mission/vision/values definition, competitive moat analysis (Porter's Five Forces, Blue Ocean), strategic narrative construction, growth frameworks (Ansoff Matrix, Three Horizons), capital allocation strategy, and M&A evaluation.

Its SKILL.md is about 1.1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 5 other files, including reference files (for example `references/competitive-analysis.md`, `references/growth-strategy.md` and `references/resource-allocation.md`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Go-to-market strategy, Competitor analysis and Startup and business strategy. The repository describes itself as: Curated Hermes Agent profiles for specialist swarms — opinionated, Hermes-optimized, artifact-pyramid native. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Go-to-market strategy
  • Tasks that involve Competitor analysis
  • Tasks that involve Startup and business strategy

Example prompts

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Strategy is choice. A strategy that does not explicitly say what the organization will stop doing is not a strategy — it's a wish list.
  2. Competitive moats are earned, not declared. A moat exists when a competitor would find it irrational to invest in competing. Everything…
  3. Horizons must be balanced. Neglect Horizon 1 (core) and cash flow dies. Neglect Horizon 3 (emerging) and the company has no future. The…
  4. OKRs are a communication tool, not a measurement system. Their value is in forcing clarity about what matters most, not in the precision…
  5. Capital allocation is strategy made concrete. How a company spends its money reveals its actual priorities regardless of what the strategy…

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 867a555. 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

Strategy Frameworks loads about 1.1k tokens when it runs, and up to ~8.7k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 92 tokens; SKILL.md has 385 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~92
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.1k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~8.7k

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.

Design Principles

  1. Strategy is choice. A strategy that does not explicitly say what the organization will stop doing is not a strategy — it's a wish list.
  2. Competitive moats are earned, not declared. A moat exists when a competitor would find it irrational to invest in competing. Everything else is a feature.
  3. Horizons must be balanced. Neglect Horizon 1 (core) and cash flow dies. Neglect Horizon 3 (emerging) and the company has no future. The allocation across horizons is the CEO's primary control.
  4. OKRs are a communication tool, not a measurement system. Their value is in forcing clarity about what matters most, not in the precision of the scores.
  5. Capital allocation is strategy made concrete. How a company spends its money reveals its actual priorities regardless of what the strategy document says.
  • executive-methodology — shared decision frameworks and governance
  • financial-modeling — CFO-side unit economics, SaaS metrics, fundraising
  • operational-design — COO-side process design and scaling execution
  • artifact-pyramids — output contract specification
