About the skill

Founder Pattern Library Merger

Takes pattern cards extracted individually from multiple founder content platforms (Starter Story, Indie Hackers, Mixergy, Latka, Bootstrapped Founder) and merges them into a cross-source consolidated library. It preserves the 8-dimension taxonomy: validation, ICP, first-100-users, distribution, monetization, tech, content-SEO, and anti-pattern.

The merger's core value is citation discipline: each pattern cluster is tiered by how many distinct sources and how many distinct founders provide evidence for it — ≥2 distinct sources + ≥3 founders = STRONG, a single source but ≥2 founders = MEDIUM, a single founder = WEAK (enters the roadmap only with a "non-library assumption" label), and if ≥3 founders were hurt by a move = ANTI (a warning on every answer).

When to use it: after the transcript harvester and pattern-extraction steps have run, when you want to reduce scattered pattern cards down to a single trustworthy reference library. The founder-pattern-roadmap-advisor agent consumes this library to produce roadmaps.

Output: a human-readable founder-pattern-library_v2.md (tier table + clusters + evidence quotes + anti-fit notes) and a machine-readable cluster-index.json (per cluster: id, tier, dimension, citation_count, source_diversity, and founder_evidence). Each run does a full rebuild; it is idempotent.

How do I use this skill?

You don't "run" a skill — after installing it you just tell the agent your task (e.g. ask for the relevant job), and the skill kicks in by itself when its description matches.
