"description": "Articulate founder-market fit — the why-you and why-now story investors and accelerators (YC-style) probe hardest. Use when asked to write the founder story, answer 'why are you the right team', draft YC \/ accelerator application answers, or explain founder-market fit. Produces a sharp narrative connecting the founder's unfair insight and earned secrets to this specific opportunity — concrete, not a humble-brag."

Founder-Market Fit Skill
The strongest founder stories aren't résumés — they show an earned secret: something this founder knows or can do that others can't, and why that makes them the right person to win this market now. This skill builds that narrative.
Working from a brief
Given a thin bio, draft the full narrative anyway, drawing out the strongest plausible angle and marking inferred details (assumed — confirm). Never refuse for "not impressive enough background"; find the genuine edge in what's there. No placeholders.
Required Inputs
Ask for (if not already provided):
- The founder(s)' background — work, what they built, what they obsess over
- The idea / market and how they came to it
- The earned secret — what they learned the hard way that the market doesn't know
- Target (a VC pitch, a YC/accelerator application, a recruiting narrative)
Output Format
1. The one-line founder-market fit
"[Founder] is the right person to build [this] because [earned insight]" — in a single, specific sentence.
2. The story (3 beats)
- Origin — how they collided with this problem (lived it, built near it, obsessed over it)
- The secret — what they learned that others haven't, stated as a concrete insight not a platitude
- The proof — evidence they can execute: what they've already built, shipped, or learned
3. Why now, why you
Tie the founder's timing and capability to the market's why-now. The reader should feel this is inevitable for this team.
4. Application-ready answers (if YC/accelerator)
Crisp answers to the classic prompts:
- What's your unfair advantage / what do you understand that others don't?
- Why did you pick this idea? How do you know people want it?
- What have you built before / why will you out-execute?
Quality Checks
- The fit is shown through a specific earned secret, not a list of credentials
- Every claim is concrete (a thing built/shipped/learned), not adjectives ("passionate", "driven")
- Ties founder capability to the market's why-now
- Honest — strengthens a real background rather than inventing one
Anti-Patterns
- A résumé in prose ("10 years at BigCo, then...")
- Vague passion claims with no evidence
- Borrowed secrets (industry truisms anyone could state)
- Overclaiming — investors discount stories that don't ring true
