90 / 100 · Low risk

Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Manages the project's testable hypotheses — surfacing new ones, refining existing ones, updating status, reviewing the full set, and assessing hypothesis state based on evidence gathered so far. Use when the conversation touches assumptions, risks, what to validate, hypotheses, interview prep, assessing which hypotheses are confirmed or invalidated, reviewing overall hypothesis health, or when the user questions whether something about their idea is true.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'hypotheses' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'hypotheses' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named hypotheses already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/davepoon/buildwithclaude' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet 'b8e39b909f5e248090b16b2fd62048ba0ac6a70e' -- 'plugins/startup-superpowers/skills/hypotheses' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/startup-superpowers/skills/hypotheses' ~/.agents/skills/'hypotheses' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'hypotheses' ~/.claude/skills/'hypotheses' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
