Use when a founder needs to understand or model ownership and dilution. Triggers on "model my cap table", "how much will I be diluted", "option pool", "SAFE conversion", "post-money vs pre-money", "what do I own after this round", "pro rata". Turns equity from a black box into a model the founder controls.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Cap Table Manager Founders lose more value to cap-table mistakes they did not model than to valuation they negotiated badly. This skill makes dilution legible: you should be able to state what you own after the next two rounds, and why. ## When to use this skill Use it during [[fundraising-stage-selector]] to pressure-test dilution, before signing any SAFE or term sheet, and whenever someone says "we'll just expand the pool." Pair instrument mechanics with [[safe-vs-priced-round]]. ## The mechanics that actually move ownership ### Pre-money vs post-money - Post-money valuation = pre-money + new investment. - Investor ownership = investment ÷ post-money. ($2M into $8M pre => $10M post => 20% to investors.) - Modern SAFEs (post-money SAFEs) lock the investor's percentage; founders dilute *around* them when later money comes in. Know which kind you signed. ### The option pool shuffle - Investors usually require the new option pool to be carved out of the *pre-money* - so founders, not investors, bear its dilution. - A "20% pool on a $10M post" can quietly cost founders several points. Model the pool inside the pre-money and negotiate its size to the actual hiring plan …

How to install
mdr add skillmedev/skills/cap-table-manager@sha256:2cbc19b81ccad402The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260705.a28c4ce, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
