What it does

Startup Launcher is an agent skill from revfactory/harness-100. Full launch pipeline where an agent team collaborates to generate idea validation, business model design, MVP planning, and pitch deck creation in one pass. Use this skill for requests like 'plan a startup', 'validate a business idea', 'create a business model', 'write a pitch deck', 'design an MVP', 'prepare for fundraising', 'startup preparation', 'write a business plan', 'startup launch strategy', 'BM design', and other startup launch tasks. Also supports pitch deck writing or market validation when existing…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.3k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Business, Finance & HR, covering Fundraising and pitch decks, Product strategy and Startup and business strategy. The licence is Apache-2.0.

When your agent uses it

  • Requests like plan a startup
  • Validate a business idea
  • Create a business model
  • Write a pitch deck

Example prompts

  • “plan a startup”
  • “validate a business idea”
  • “create a business model”
  • “/startup-launcher”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Preparation (performed directly by the orchestrator)
  2. Team Assembly and Execution
  3. Integration and Final Deliverables

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 8e8d35c. 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

Startup Launcher loads about 1.3k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 183 tokens; SKILL.md has 434 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~183
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.3k

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.

Full launch pipeline where an agent team collaborates to generate idea validation, business model design, MVP planning, and pitch deck creation in one pass. Use this skill for requests like 'plan a startup', 'validate a business idea', 'create a business model', 'write a pitch deck', 'design an MVP', 'prepare for fundraising', 'startup preparation', 'write a business plan', 'startup launch strategy', 'BM design', and other startup launch tasks. Also supports pitch deck writing or market validation when existing business models or MVPs are available. Note: company incorporation procedures, actual investment contract writing, code development, and accounting/tax processing are outside the scope of this skill.

Startup Launcher — Startup Launch Pipeline

An agent team collaborates to generate idea validation, business model, MVP design, and pitch deck through market analysis > business model > MVP > pitch deck > review.

Execution Mode

Agent Team — Five agents communicate directly via SendMessage and perform cross-validation.

Agent Composition

AgentFileRoleType
market-analyst.claude/agents/market-analyst.mdMarket validation, competitive analysisgeneral-purpose
business-modeler.claude/agents/business-modeler.mdRevenue model, unit economics, financialsgeneral-purpose
mvp-architect.claude/agents/mvp-architect.mdMVP scope, tech stack, roadmapgeneral-purpose
pitch-creator.claude/agents/pitch-creator.mdPitch deck, investor narrativegeneral-purpose
launch-reviewer.claude/agents/launch-reviewer.mdConsistency verification, investment readiness QAgeneral-purpose

Workflow

Phase 1: Preparation (performed directly by the orchestrator)
  1. Extract the following from user input:
    • Startup idea: Problem to solve, proposed solution
    • Target market: Industry, geography, customer segment
    • Stage: Idea/Validation/MVP/Growth
    • Funding goal (optional): Investment round, target amount
    • Existing assets (optional): Market research, business plan, prototype, etc.
  2. Create the _workspace/ directory at the project root
  3. Organize the input and save it to _workspace/00_input.md
  4. If pre-existing files are available, copy them to _workspace/ and skip the corresponding phase
  5. Determine the execution mode based on the scope of the request
Phase 2: Team Assembly and Execution
OrderTaskOwnerDependenciesDeliverable
1Market validationmarket-analystNone_workspace/01_market_validation.md
2Business modelbusiness-modelerTask 1_workspace/02_business_model.md

4Pitch deckpitch-creatorTasks 1, 2, 3_workspace/04_pitch_deck.md
5Launch reviewlaunch-reviewerTask 4_workspace/05_review_report.md

Inter-agent communication flow:

  • market-analyst completes > passes market data to business-modeler, pain points to mvp-architect
  • business-modeler completes > passes financials to mvp-architect and pitch-creator
  • mvp-architect completes > passes MVP plan to pitch-creator
  • pitch-creator completes > passes deck to launch-reviewer
  • launch-reviewer cross-validates all deliverables. On CRITICAL findings, requests corrections > rework > re-verify (up to 2 rounds)
Show full SKILL.md (159 more words)Show less
Phase 3: Integration and Final Deliverables
  1. Verify all files in _workspace/
  2. Confirm that all CRITICAL findings have been addressed
  3. Report the final summary to the user
