Reviews startup financial models for investor readiness: validates unit economics, stress-tests runway scenarios, and benchmarks metrics against stage-appropriate targets. Use the full review, about 10–15 minutes, when the user provides a financial model (Excel, CSV, or a model pasted as text) and asks for review, validation, runway analysis, or unit-economics scoring. For a single money question with figures to compute, such as 'how long do I have?' or 'is a 4x burn multiple bad?', use its…
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
# Financial Model Review Skill
Help startup founders understand how investors will evaluate their financial model — validating structure, unit economics, runway, and metrics against stage-appropriate standards.

How to install
mdr add lool-ventures/founder-skills/financial-model-review@sha256:e9970eded012b445The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261018.d891f0d, 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.
