What it does

Strategy Builder is an aeon skill: Draft STRATEGY.md from a goal - read the operator's brief (goal, repo, links) plus the repo README and memory, then write a tight north-star/priorities/audience/constraints strategy. 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.

Most forks never tailor STRATEGY.md - it sits on the unconfigured defaults, so skills operate with no specific bias. But the operator's direction is usually knowable from a sentence of intent plus what's already in the repo (README, what's being shipped, MEMORY.md). This skill turns that into a strategy skills can actually act on: one outcome to optimize, a few ordered priorities, the audience, and the hard lines.

Input: the var setting

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.

A brief. Two accepted shapes:

  • Structured (from the dashboard): | -separated tokens - any of repo=<owner/repo>, links=<url1,url2>, goal=<free text>. goal is the last token; everything after goal= is the goal text. Example: repo=acme/widgets | links=https://acme.com | goal=grow paying teams, win on reliability.
  • Bare text: just the goal, e.g. growing my open-source agent framework - active contributors, not stars.

If var is empty, fall back to the repo README + memory/MEMORY.md to infer direction. If even that yields nothing usable, log STRATEGY_BUILDER_SKIP: no brief - set var or add a goal and stop with no notification.

What it needs

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).

Install and run it

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

bin/add-skill aeonfun/aeon strategy-builder

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

skills:
  strategy-builder: { enabled: true, schedule: "workflow_dispatch", var: "" }
