What it does

The Revenue Opportunity Scout is a strategic agent skill designed for solo developers and technical founders. It autonomously scans the web for real-time demand signals—such as forum complaints, API changes, and market gaps—and filters them through a specific "leverage profile" to identify high-probability revenue paths. Unlike generic idea generators, it maintains a persistent ledger to prevent duplicative research and scores every opportunity based on speed-to-market, technical fit, and monetization potential.

How it works

The skill follows a rigorous multi-step process: it analyzes your existing technical assets, searches high-signal sources like Reddit, X, and Product Hunt, and applies a weighted scoring system to rank findings. It prioritizes "vertical slices"—small, shippable products or features that can generate revenue quickly over complex, long-term projects.

Why use this skill

• Eliminate Analysis Paralysis: Get objective, data-backed rankings of what to build next.
• Persistent Memory: Uses an opportunity ledger to track ideas over time, ensuring you never repeat work or chase stale leads.
• Technical Alignment: Specifically tuned for developers using modern stacks like React, Next.js, and AI agents.
• Action-Oriented: Every report ends with a "First Slice" and a "Next Action" to ensure transition from research to execution.

Output

The skill produces a structured Revenue Opportunity Scan report featuring a "Top Pick," a ranked table of opportunities with objective scores (out of 35), and a blunt assessment of what to ignore or park.
