Pick which startup idea to build next

Idea Pipeline is an aeon skill: Execution-gap audit - cross-references the startup idea backlog against shipped skills, prototypes, and cross-repo PRs, surfacing the top 3 ideas to build next by narrative and operator fit. Like every aeon skill it is one SKILL.md prompt file that runs unattended on your own GitHub Actions, on a schedule or when you trigger it, and sends what it finds to Telegram, Discord, Slack or email.

idea-forge validate evaluates ideas. Nothing tracks execution. Backlogs of dozens of ideas accumulate - some validated, most unscreened - with zero visibility into which ones have been acted on vs which are rotting. This skill gives that view: pipeline size, execution rate, and the 3 ideas closest to being buildable right now.

Every aeon skill takes one optional text input, var, set in aeon.yml or typed in when you run it by hand. It picks the target or the mode for that run.

Optional theme filter (e.g. "crypto", "AI agents", "consumer"). If empty, scans all ideas. A pick:<id|name> value (from the "build next?" force-reply - e.g. pick:2 or pick:Onchain reputation) instead marks that idea as chosen-to-build in the backlog and ends, skipping the audit - see step 0. offer:<owner/repo or issue-url> directly offers a confirmed owned target through the same Telegram reply boundary, also ending before the audit.

No extra API keys or MCP servers. It runs on the model you connected to aeon (a Claude subscription token, an API key, or another login).

Easiest: open Aeon Connect, sign in with GitHub and turn on Idea Pipeline. No clone, no terminal. To add it to an existing aeon repo from a shell, run:

Then switch it on in aeon.yml (the default schedule is filled in):

skills:
  idea-pipeline: { enabled: true, schedule: "0 18 * * 1", var: "" }
