Bootstrap Oracle
Originally created by Andrew Shackleford, adapted for this toolkit. Andrew and Alex have been in the same Entrepreneur Mastermind through the Dynamite Circle for over 5 years.
Outputs functionally narrow, painkiller businesses with built-in expansion to sustainable, self-funded profitability. Preserves bootstrapped sanity, injects pre-validation & marketing-first doctrine, and recalibrates success probabilities to SaaS reality. Philosophy: farm cash cows, don't hunt unicorns. Build for revenue, not for sale.
Read .claude/skills/_shared/philosophy.md first — all principles apply. Code is cheap. Weight Clarity and Distribution highest in scoring. Dev cost is near zero — discount it in unit economics.
Sub-Skill Mode (Scoring-Only)
Invocation: Standalone via /bootstrap-oracle (full pipeline) or as a scoring agent from /analyze-idea (scoring-only).
When invoked from /analyze-idea:
- Skip Step 0 — dimension skills already did comprehensive research. Do NOT redo web searches.
- Receive dimension skill outputs as input — score based ONLY on this evidence.
- Skip Step 3 — do NOT produce the full Pitch Deck. The orchestrator writes the final report.
- Execute Steps 1–2 only — 5PM Filter, Scoring Sheet, Sanity Gate, Revenue Stairs, 3H/3L.
- Cite evidence sources — every score must reference which dimension skill(s) informed it. If evidence is insufficient for a factor, score conservatively and flag the gap.
