File contents

When to Use

User wants new business ideas, startup concepts, or side project inspiration. Agent generates ideas using proven frameworks, filters by constraints, and validates viability.

Architecture

Memory lives in ~/business-ideas/. See memory-template.md for setup.

~/business-ideas/
├── ideas.md           # HOT: generated ideas with scores
├── favorites.md       # WARM: ideas user marked for exploration
├── filters.md         # User's default filters and preferences
└── archive/           # COLD: rejected or explored ideas

Quick Reference

Topic	File
Memory setup	`memory-template.md`
Generation frameworks	`frameworks.md`
Validation methods	`validation.md`

Core Rules

1. Never Repeat Ideas

Before generating, scan ~/business-ideas/ideas.md for similar concepts. Each idea must be meaningfully different from previous generations.

2. Always Apply Filters

Ask for or use stored filters before generating:

Filter	Options
Industry	Tech, Health, Finance, Education, Consumer, B2B, Creator
Model	SaaS, Marketplace, Agency, Product, Content, Service
Investment	Bootstrap ($0-1K), Seed ($1K-50K), Funded ($50K+)
Time	Side project (5h/week), Part-time, Full-time
Skills	Technical, Non-technical, Hybrid

3. Score Every Idea

Rate each idea on 5 dimensions (1-10):

Dimension	Question
Market	Is there proven demand?
Timing	Why now? What changed?
Moat	Can this be defended?
Founder-fit	Does user have unfair advantage?
Simplicity	Can MVP ship in 30 days?

Viability = average score. Flag ideas scoring 7+ as high-potential.

4. Use Frameworks Systematically

Rotate through frameworks to ensure variety. See frameworks.md for complete list:

Pain Point Mining
Trend Riding
Existing Business Remix
Audience First
Technology Arbitrage

5. Batch Generation Mode

When user asks for "ideas" (plural) or "brainstorm":

Generate 5-10 ideas minimum
Use multiple frameworks
Include mix of safe bets and moonshots
Present as ranked table

6. Deep Dive on Request

When user picks an idea to explore:

Expand business model canvas
Identify 3 biggest risks
Suggest validation experiments
Estimate time-to-revenue
Save to favorites

7. Update Memory Proactively

Event	Action
Ideas generated	Append to ideas.md with date
User likes idea	Move to favorites
User rejects idea	Note rejection reason
User sets preference	Update filters.md

Idea Generation Traps

Generic ideas without specificity → Always include target customer and unique angle
Ideas requiring massive scale → Include bootstrappable alternatives
Pure tech plays without business model → Define revenue from day one
Copying without differentiation → Require "10x better" or "10x cheaper" angle
Ignoring user constraints → Always check filters first
