Individual skill
runway-planner
Turn burn and cash into a clear runway picture and a raise decision — months left, default-alive vs default-dead, and what to cut or change. Use when asked to calculate runway, model burn rate, decide when to raise, figure out if the company is default-alive, or plan a scenario with hiring/cuts. Produces the runway math, a default-alive verdict, and dated trigger points for raising or acting. Not financial advice.

# Runway Planner Skill
Runway is the number that decides everything else. This skill turns cash and burn into months of runway, a default-alive/dead verdict (à la Paul Graham), and the dated triggers for when to raise or cut — so the founder isn't surprised. **Not financial advice; confirm with your finance lead.**
## Working from a brief
Given partial numbers, **do the full calculation anyway** with labelled illustrative figures where needed. Show the arithmetic. Never leave it as "[calculate runway]."
## Required Inputs
Ask for (if not already provided), else use clearly-labelled illustrative numbers:
- **Cash in bank** today
- **Monthly net burn** (gross burn minus revenue) and whether it's growing
- **Revenue** today and its growth rate (if any)
