Articulate founder-market fit — the why-you and why-now story investors and accelerators (YC-style) probe hardest. Use when asked to write the founder story, answer 'why are you the right team', draft YC / accelerator application answers, or explain founder-market fit. Produces a sharp narrative connecting the founder's unfair insight and earned secrets to this specific opportunity — concrete, not a humble-brag.

# Founder-Market Fit Skill

The strongest founder stories aren't résumés — they show an *earned secret*: something this founder knows or can do that others can't, and why that makes them the right person to win this market now. This skill builds that narrative.

## Working from a brief

Given a thin bio, **draft the full narrative anyway**, drawing out the strongest plausible angle and marking inferred details *(assumed — confirm)*. Never refuse for "not impressive enough background"; find the genuine edge in what's there. No placeholders.

## Required Inputs

Ask for (if not already provided):
- **The founder(s)' background** — work, what they built, what they obsess over
- **The idea / market** and how they came to it
- **The earned secret** — what they learned the hard way that the market doesn't know
