What it does

Vc Strategy is an agent skill from pedronauck/skills. Assess fundability, positioning, fundraising narrative, timing, round size, instruments, valuation, dilution, milestones, and term negotiation, including devtools/AI infrastructure. Excludes deck authoring and outreach execution.

Its SKILL.md is about 530 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 7 other files, including reference files (for example `references/deal-terms.md`, `references/devtools-positioning.md` and `references/narrative-playbook.md`).

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Fundraising and pitch decks, Project management and Positioning and messaging. The repository describes itself as: My personal favorite skills.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Fundraising and pitch decks
  • Tasks that involve Project management
  • Tasks that involve Positioning and messaging

Example prompts

  • “/vc-strategy”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 0422940. 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

Vc Strategy loads about 525 tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 60 tokens; SKILL.md has 215 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~60
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~525
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~13k

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.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 215 words (~525 tokens).

“Answer the founder's actual financing or positioning question with evidence and explicit assumptions. Use only the relevant branch; a one-liner, valuation question, or term-sheet clause does not require an entire fundraising memo.”
