# SKILL: SaaS Administration & Operations (The Operator)

> [!IMPORTANT]
> **Filosofía**: "Structure brings freedom."
> Legal and HR debt is harder to fix than technical debt.

## Core Concepts

| Area | Key Action | Why |
|------|------------|-----|
| **Legal** | Acta Constitutiva (SAS/SA). | Defines ownership and rules. |
| **Founders** | **Vesting Agreements**. | Prevents equity disputes if a founder leaves. |
| **HR** | IP Assignment Contracts. | Company must own the code, not the dev. |
| **Finance** | Burn Rate & Runway. | Don't run out of cash. |

## Knowledge Base

### 1. Vesting 101
*   **Standard**: 4 Years Vesting, 1 Year Cliff.
*   **Cliff**: If you leave before 1 year, you get 0%.
*   **Vesting**: After 1 year, you earn equity monthly (1/48th per month).
*   **Benefit**: Protects the company from "dead equity" on the cap table.

### 2. Organizational Growth
*   **Stage 0 (Founders)**: 1 Hacker (Tech) + 1 Hustler (Sales).
*   **Stage 1 (Seed)**: +2 Devs, +1 Designer, +1 CS.
*   **Stage 2 (Scale)**: VPs, Squads/Pods.

### 3. Financial Health
*   **Burn Rate**: Net cash spent per month.
*   **Runway**: `Cash / Burn Rate`. **Target > 18 months**.
*   **Rule of 40**: `Growth % + Profit % > 40`. Indicator of top-tier SaaS.

## Anti-Patterns

*   ❌ **50/50 Equity Splits**: Often leads to deadlocks. Consider 51/49 or a dynamic split.
*   ❌ **Handshake Deals**: "We'll figure out equity later." (Spoiler: You will fight later).
*   ❌ **Hiring Friends**: Hire for skill, not friendship. Fire fast if it doesn't work.

## Instructions for Agent

1.  **Assess Scale**: "Team size?", "Burn rate?".
2.  **Recommend Structure**: Flat for small teams, Squads for growing teams.
3.  **Legal Check**: Remind user about Vesting and IP Assignment.
