File contents

Analyzing Source Project (Phase 0)

Target: $ARGUMENTS

Phase 0 of the GTM pipeline. Produces a technical capability profile of the source project that feeds Phase 1B (researching-market).

Mode Awareness

Read config/mode.md before starting:

concise — Bullet summaries, 3-5 points per section
detailed — Full narrative with evidence and code references
conservative — Focus on proven, documented capabilities
ambitious — Highlight unrealized potential and extension opportunities

Inputs

config/sources.md — Source projects to analyze
config/comments_research.md — Research constraints and focus areas
config/mode.md — Style and approach settings

Workflow

Identify source projects from config/sources.md
Clone or fetch the repository if a URL is provided (use WebFetch for public repos)
Assess architecture — Directory structure, module boundaries, design patterns
Inventory tech stack — Languages, frameworks, dependencies, infrastructure hints
Extract differentiators — What does this project do unusually well?
Identify limitations — Scalability ceilings, missing features, tech debt signals
Rate capabilities — Score each capability area (1-5) with rationale
Validate against criteria — Check config/validation_criteria.md Phase 0 gates

Output

Write to results/phase-0/:

`capability-profile.md`

# Source Project Capability Profile

## Project: [name]

## Architecture Summary
[Overview of system design and key components]

## Tech Stack
- Language: [language + version]
- Framework: [framework]
- Key dependencies: [list]

## Differentiating Capabilities
1. [Capability] — Score: [1-5] — Evidence: [file/feature reference]
2. ...

## Limitations and Risks
- [Limitation] — Impact: [High/Medium/Low]

## GTM-Relevant Technical Signals
[How technical characteristics translate to market positioning opportunities]

Rules

Ground every capability claim in observable code or documentation evidence
Distinguish between current state and aspirational/roadmap features
Limitations are as important as strengths for honest PMF assessment
Cross-reference with config/comments_research.md scope constraints
