Open it in your AI tool. Start talking. No setup, no API keys, no commands.\n\n---\n\n## Who Is This For?\n\n- **Indie app developers** who want to validate app ideas before building\n- **Solo founders** exploring B2C startup ideas and looking for a data-driven brainstorming partner\n- **Side-project builders** deciding where to invest their limited time\n- **Aspiring developers** with no idea yet who want to discover one worth building\n- **Anyone** tired of building things nobody wants\n\n---\n\n## 🚀 Quickstart\n\nNo installation. No dependencies. No terminal commands. Just clone and go.\n\n### Claude Code\n\n1. Clone this repository\n```bash\ngit clone https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002FMaxKmet\u002Fidea-validation-agents.git\n```\n2. Open [Claude Code](https:\u002F\u002Fclaude.ai\u002Fcode) and open the project folder\n3. Start a new chat and say anything — e.g., `\"I want to build a habit tracker for climbers. Is it worth it?\"`\n4. The agent activates automatically from `CLAUDE.md` and starts the right workflow\n\n### OpenAI Codex CLI\n\n1. Clone this repository\n```bash\ngit clone https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002FMaxKmet\u002Fidea-validation-agents.git\n```\n2. Install [Codex CLI](https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002Fopenai\u002Fcodex) if you haven't yet\n```bash\nnpm install -g @openai\u002Fcodex\n```\n3. Navigate to the project folder and run Codex\n```bash\ncd idea-validation-agents\ncodex\n```\n4. Say what you want — e.g., `\"Help me find an app idea\"`. The agent reads `AGENTS.md` and routes you automatically.\n\n### Cursor\n\n1. Clone this repository\n```bash\ngit clone https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002FMaxKmet\u002Fidea-validation-agents.git\n```\n2. Open the folder in [Cursor](https:\u002F\u002Fcursor.com)\n3. Open the AI chat (Cmd+L \u002F Ctrl+L) and describe your situation  \n   Example: `\"I'm a solo developer with 3 years experience. Help me validate an idea for climbers — a habit tracker with daily streaks and tips.\"`\n4. The agent reads from `.cursor\u002Frules\u002F` and activates automatically\n\n> **That's it.** The agent detects your intent and routes you to the right workflow. All analysis results are saved to the `memory\u002F` folder so nothing is lost between sessions.\n\n---\n\n## Workflows - 4 Ways to Use the Agent\n\n### 💡 Idea Generation — *\"I don't know what to build\"* · `~10–15 min`\n\nThe agent interviews you about your background, skills, and interests — then researches what's actually trending — and generates 7–10 scored app ideas matched specifically to you.\n\n```\nI don't have an app idea yet. Help me find one.\nWhat should I build? I'm a fitness coach with 8k Instagram followers.\nI want to find an app idea in the productivity space.\n```\n\n**Steps:** background interview → builder profile → trend analysis → idea generation → scoring\n\n**Methodology:** Trend signals are pulled from TikTok Creative Center (hashtag velocity), Reddit (community pain language), App Store (new entrants + review patterns), and Google Trends (search demand). Ideas are filtered against your domain expertise, skills, and distribution advantages from the interview — so you get ideas you can actually build and sell.\n\n**Output:** Ranked + scored list of app ideas saved to `memory\u002Fideas\u002F`\n\n> Don't want to answer questions? Say **\"browse topics\"** to pick from 20 product domains, or **\"skip\"** to jump straight to ideas.\n\n---\n\n### 🔍 Idea Validation — *\"Is my idea worth building?\"* · `~10–15 min`\n\nFull 9-step validation. Every dimension scored, weighted, and combined into a final verdict — with the single riskiest assumption identified and a concrete experiment to test it before writing any code.\n\n```\nValidate my idea: an AI tool that rewrites your emails to sound more professional.\nI want to build a habit tracker for intermittent fasting. Worth it?\nScore this — a subscription app that sends meal plans based on your grocery budget.\n```\n\n**Steps:** trend analysis → competitor mapping → desire scoring → pricing model → distribution analysis → retention prediction → CAC modeling → final score (0–100) → decision memo\n\n**Methodology:**\n- **Scoring** uses a multiplicative-floor algorithm — one catastrophic weakness kills the overall score, just like in a real startup\n- **Pricing** is estimated via Van Westendorp price sensitivity analysis + desire-premium multipliers (e.g. survival\u002Fstatus desires command 1.3–2× price premium)\n- **Distribution** models viral coefficient (k-factor) across 6 loop types, ASO opportunity via a 5-factor rubric, and creator economy fit\n- **Competitors** are analyzed via systematic App Store search + 1-star\u002F3-star review mining to surface the exact gaps incumbents leave open\n- **Riskiest Assumption Test (RAT)** designs a ≤2-week, ≤$100 behavioral experiment to validate the single assumption most likely to kill the idea\n- **Pre-mortem** (Klein, 2007) imagines the idea failing in 12 months and traces the most probable causes back to scored weaknesses\n\n**Output:** `decision_memo.md` — verdict (pursue \u002F test \u002F pivot \u002F drop), strengths, risks, RAT experiment, kill criteria, and your next step\n\n---\n\n### 📊 Market Deep Dive — *\"Tell me about this market\"* · `~10–15 min`\n\nResearch a category before committing to any idea. Understand who already owns it, what users hate, and whether the timing is right.\n\n```\nTell me about the journaling app market.\nWhat's happening in the AI language learning space?\nIs the meditation app market still worth entering?\n```\n\n**Steps:** multi-platform trend analysis → competitor landscape → market size (TAM\u002FSAM\u002FSOM) → distribution channel assessment\n\n**Methodology:**\n- Trend velocity scored across platforms: rising-fast \u002F rising \u002F stable \u002F declining\n- Market saturation rated via a 5-factor rubric (competitor count, incumbent dominance, funding activity, keyword saturation, content saturation)\n- Market size uses triangulated bottom-up estimation: search volume × intent conversion rate, community size × platform multiplier, and competitor revenue proxies — cross-checked for consistency\n- SOM estimates use indie-realistic capture rate benchmarks by app category (e.g. niche productivity: 0.5–2.0% year 1)\n\n**Output:** Trend intelligence + competitor map + TAM\u002FSAM\u002FSOM estimates saved to `memory\u002Fmarket_insights\u002F`\n\n---\n\n### 🔄 Pivot Optimization — *\"My idea scored low. Now what?\"* · `~10–15 min`\n\nFinds the best version of a failing idea instead of abandoning it entirely. Each pivot option changes exactly 1–2 variables — audience, niche, pricing model, or feature emphasis — with a projected score improvement before you commit.\n\n```\nMy idea scored 34\u002F100. Should I pivot?\nThe validation said to pivot. What are my best options?\nThis isn't working — what should I change about my fitness app idea?\n```\n\n**Steps:** re-read scores → weakness root cause analysis → 2–3 pivot options with projected scores → re-score best option\n\n**Methodology:**\n- Weaknesses are classified by root cause: structural (can't fix), situational (fixable with time\u002Fbudget), knowledge-gap (needs more research), or addressable (clear fix exists) — only the latter two generate pivot options\n- Each pivot must pass the **Same Idea Test**: changes 1–2 variables, preserves at least one strong dimension, and has evidence from market_insights or competitor review mining\n- Scoring simulation projects how each dimension shifts before full re-scoring\n- Effort is estimated and adjusted for founder tier — what's \"medium\" for a builder is \"high\" for a beginner\n\n**Output:** `pivot_options.json` with ranked pivots, effort estimates, and projected score ranges\n\n---\n\n## What Gets Saved\n\nAll outputs persist in `memory\u002F` between sessions.\n\n```\nmemory\u002F\n├── user_profile.md                   ← your builder profile (reused across sessions)\n├── market_insights\u002F\n│   └── fitness-tiktok-2026-04.md     ← trend data per niche + platform\n└── ideas\u002F\n    └── habit-tracker-climbers\u002F\n        ├── competitors.json\n        ├── pricing.json\n        ├── scores.json\n        └── decision_memo.md          ← the final verdict\n```\n\n---\n\n\u003Cdiv align=\"center\">\n\n**[⭐ Star this repo](https:\u002F\u002Fgithub.com\u002FMaxKmet\u002Fidea-validation-agents)** so you don't lose it.\n\n*Validate in 10 minutes.
