Two agent skills plus helper scripts that put spare agent tokens to work hunting AI startup and open-source ideas. The workflow generates AI-era theses and product/OSS bet sketches, then scans sources to kill, sharpen, or de-risk them through relevance gates, red-team critique, competitor checks, and CEO-style advance/pause/reject decisions. Produces a decision-chain research memo and an optional local JSONL evidence memory. Note: the rendered report is written in Chinese.

Things to check

  • The research report is written in Chinese by default — the daily/weekly memo output targets Chinese readers. Evidence-based evaluation: scored from public trust signals, not hands-on tested. Confirm fit before client deployment.
  • Single maintainer. Consider the risk if this person stops maintaining the project.
