Startup Validation Pipeline
Orchestrate a 6-stage startup validation pipeline. Each stage is executed by a dedicated agent, produces a confidence-scored markdown report, and presents a decision gate.
Pipeline Stages
| # | Stage | Agent | Decision Gate |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Problem & Market Validation | | Is this a real problem worth solving? |
| 2 | Feasibility Analysis | | Can this be built legally and operationally? |
| 3 | Product & Solution Design | | Can we design a differentiated product? |
| 4 | Business Model & Strategy | | Can this become profitable and defensible? |
| 5 | Go-to-Market & Growth | | Can we acquire users sustainably? |
| 6 | Execution Roadmap | | Can we build and launch realistically? |
Arguments
Parse from
$ARGUMENTS:
| Flag | Effect |
|---|---|
| The startup idea to validate (required — or use ) |
| Provide idea description or research brief from a file |
| Load preset from dir (composable) |
| Skip decision gates, run all stages autonomously |
| Spawn parallel sub-agents per stage + critic synthesis |
| Resume from stage N (reads prior reports from disk) |
| Run only stage N in isolation |
| Override auto-generated run slug |
Orchestration
See WORKFLOW.md for the complete orchestration protocol including:
- Slug generation and output directory setup
- Preset loading and composition
- Stage execution (standard and deep modes)
- Decision gate interaction
- Summary scorecard generation
