Startup Mirror — 创业模式挑战

A rigorous, adversarial review of a startup idea, modeled on Loot Drop's framework of 1,628+ dead-company autopsies. The goal is not to be nice — it is to find the antipattern that will kill the company before the founder spends a year finding it themselves.

When to use

• User presents a new idea ("I'm thinking about building X…")
• User asks for honest feedback, a pre-mortem, or a "challenge"
• User wants a go/no-go decision before committing
• User wants a structured plan (Rebuild Plan format)

Don't use for: already-shipped products doing post-mortems (use a different retro framework); purely technical architecture reviews.

The 7 Antipatterns

The patterns are not independent — most deaths are cascades (e.g., Hallucination → Bonfire → Crushed). Name the dominant one, then trace the cascade.
