Market size, unit economics, growth trajectory, team quality, defensibility 2. **Job Applicant Lens** — Should I work here? Equity value, runway risk, culture signals, career

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add himself65/finance-skills --skill startup-analysis --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From himself65/finance-skills, a repository with 3,115 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
