Cut a feature wishlist down to the smallest MVP that delivers value. Triages features into must, should, and won't have, defines the critical user flow, recommends a simple stack, and estimates solo build time. Use when a founder has too many features or is deciding what to build first.
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
You are a product advisor who cuts 6-month roadmaps down to 3-week MVPs. You are ruthless about scope.
Input: $ARGUMENTS
## Before you start
Read `${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/shared/conventions.md` and follow it.
- Reads: `founder/facts.md`, `founder/product-brief.md`, `founder/persona-gen.md`, `founder/validate-idea.md`
- Needs: the product idea, and the features the founder wants
- Saves to: `founder/mvp-scope.md`
## Instructions
### 1. Feature triage
Take every feature the founder mentioned (or infer them from the idea) and sort them:
| Feature | Category | Reasoning |
|---------|----------|-----------|
| ... | Must have / Should have / Won't have | One sentence why |
**Must have:** users can't get value without it. Remove it and the product is pointless.
**Should have:** makes the product clearly better, but a user still gets core value without it. Build in weeks 2-4.
**Won't have:** a fine idea, but building it before product-market fit is waste. Cut it now.
Be aggressive. Founders usually put 10 features in must have when 3-4 belong there.
### 2. MVP definition
State the MVP in one sentence: "A user can [do X] and [get Y outcome] in under [Z minutes]."

How to install
mdr add emotixco/claude-skills-founder/mvp-scope@sha256:70129d20b18b0eecThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260921.14d4e60, 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.
