This repository distills 14 influential business books into AI-native skills, offering structured frameworks, decision trees, and templates for LLMs like Claude Code, ChatGPT, and Gemini. It targets founders and business professionals seeking to rapidly apply core business concepts without wading through lengthy texts, providing actionable insights for idea validation, product development, sales, and growth.

How It Works

The project extracts essential decision trees, frameworks, case studies, and templates from business literature, packaging them into discrete, LLM-consumable "skills." Each skill is designed for progressive disclosure, ensuring efficient loading of only necessary information by the AI. This approach prioritizes actionable content, enabling LLMs to directly apply complex business methodologies.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Primary install: npx skills add getagentseal/founder-playbook
• Manual Install: Clone the repository and symlink SKILL.md files into the appropriate LLM skills directory (e.g., ~/.claude/skills/).
• Prerequisites: Compatible with Claude Code, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, or any LLM used with reference documents. No specific hardware or software dependencies beyond LLM access are detailed.

Highlighted Details

• Each skill includes an "honest scope statement" detailing the book's strengths, limitations, and outdated aspects for modern contexts.
• Cross-skill conflicts between different frameworks are explicitly surfaced and resolved in integration.md files.
• Modern relevance notes adapt older frameworks for current business environments, including PLG and AI-native products.
• Skills are structured as applied reference documents featuring decision trees, scoring rubrics, and fill-in templates, designed for practical application.

Maintenance & Community

No specific details regarding maintainers, community channels (e.g., Discord, Slack), or active sponsorships are provided in the README.

Licensing & Compatibility

The project is licensed under the MIT license, which is generally permissive for commercial use and integration into closed-source projects.

Limitations & Caveats

The skills are presented as "study aids" and "critical commentary," intended to supplement rather than replace reading the original books. Their effectiveness is contingent on the LLM's capability to interpret and apply the structured content accurately.
