创业公司做 AI 产品的 7 步 Agent Skill 合集：验证 → BP → 政策 → 路演 → 获客 → 定价 → 注册。

What is this?

AI Startup Skills is a bundle of seven "Agent Skills" — packaged instructions that teach an AI coding agent (like Codex or Claude Code) how to help you build an AI product as a solo founder. It also includes a router skill that figures out which of the seven steps you're on and hands you off to the right one.

Think of it as a guided checklist for starting a one-person AI company: you tell it what you're building and how far you've gotten, and it tells you what to do next.

The 7 steps

Each step is a separate skill (and also a standalone repo you can install alone):

AI MVP Validation — Check if anyone actually wants your product before you build it or write a business plan.
Business Plan Skill — Write business plans, pitch materials, and applications for incubators and competitions.
OPC Policy Navigator — Find government policies, subsidies, compute vouchers, and community spaces for one-person companies.
AI Pitch Coach — Prepare roadshow scripts and handle judge Q&A for parks, incubators, and startup competitions.
OPC Growth Playbook — Cold-start customer acquisition on Chinese platforms: Xiaohongshu, Douyin, and WeChat Channels.
OPC Pricing & Sales — Set pricing, build packages, create quotes, and close deals.
OPC Registration & Compliance — Choose your business entity type, follow a registration checklist, and track annual reports and compliance deadlines.

How the router works

You describe what you're doing (e.g., "I have an idea for an AI note-taking app, nothing built yet"). The router:

Determines which stage you're at
Asks at most two clarifying questions
Calls the matching sub-skill
After each step, suggests what to do next and why

Default order for a new founder: 1 → 2 → 3/7 → 4 → 5 → 6. Steps 3 and 7 can run in parallel, but you usually need to register your company before applying for policies.

Why bundle instead of installing individually?

Standalone install	This bundle
You must judge which skill to use	The router picks by stage
Each step's output is isolated	Output flows forward: validation evidence → business plan → policy/pitch
Seven repos to install and update	One install, one sync script

If you only need one step, you can install just that repo instead.

Who it's for

Good fit:

Solo founders and early-stage teams in China building AI tools, apps, or agents
People who want to follow the full sequence: validate → plan → policy → pitch → grow → price → register

Not a fit:

Anyone needing formal legal or tax advice (the toolkit is informational only)
VC fundraising pitches (the pitch coach targets parks, incubators, and competitions, not VCs)

How to install and use

Install (example for Codex):

git clone https://github.com/huaxialucaicaizi/ai-startup-skills.git
mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills
cp -R ai-startup-skills/skills/* ~/.agents/skills/
cp -R ai-startup-skills ~/.agents/skills/ai-startup-skills

Claude Code uses ~/.claude/skills instead. Other tools that support Agent Skills (like Cursor) can install it their own way.

Use it:

Use ai-startup-skills to tell me which startup stage I am at and what to do next: ___ (what you're building, what you've done)

Or call a specific step directly:

Use opc-pricing-sales to price this AI product: ___

Key principles

The README states four rules the skills follow:

No invented data — no made-up industry benchmarks, case studies, or testimonials; examples are marked as fictional
Official sources only — policies, laws, and platform rules link to official originals
Information, not legal/tax advice
Sub-skill rules win — once you're inside a step, that step's own instructions take over

Maintenance and updates

The seven sub-skills are maintained in their own separate repos. This bundle pulls the latest versions with:

./scripts/sync.sh
python3 scripts/validate.py

The validation script checks the router and all seven sub-skills' metadata.

Limitations worth knowing

China-focused: policy navigation, registration/compliance, and platform growth target mainland China. The validation, planning, pitching, and pricing logic is more general.
Info can go stale: policies and regulations change; the skills link to official sources, so you should open the originals to confirm.
Not legal advice: it's guidance, not a substitute for professionals.
