Detect VC funds that are posers: zombie funds, stage drifters, thesis cosplayers, and tourist investors who take meetings but don't write checks. Usage: /vcposer <VC Fund Name>. Runs 8 evidence-based checks, scores a Poser Score (0–100), and recommends whether to pursue. Saves to vcposer-<fund>.md.

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

# /vcposer — VC Poser Detector

Run a structured 8-check deal flow against a VC fund to determine whether they actually write checks or just show up. Produces a Poser Score and a verdict before founders waste cycles on outreach, vcmatch reports, or meeting prep.

## Invocation

```
/vcposer <VC Fund Name>
```

Examples: `/vcposer a16z` or `/vcposer Slow Ventures`

## Execution Steps

### Step 1 — Load Startup Context

Read `STARTUP_PROFILE.md` from the current working directory. Extract and hold in context:

- Stage (pre-seed / seed / Series A)
- Sector and category
- Ask amount
- Geography

This context calibrates the checks — a fund that hasn't invested in 12 months is a zombie risk at seed but may simply be between funds at growth stage. Flag relative risk, not just absolute signals.

If `STARTUP_PROFILE.md` does not exist, stop and tell the user to create it first.

Derive the fund slug and output filename: lowercase the fund name, strip spaces and punctuation.
- `a16z` → `vcposer-a16z.md`
- `Slow Ventures` → `vcposer-slow-ventures.md`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add maxoliverbr/vcupid-plugin/vcposer@sha256:aecd24115a18040a

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, 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.
