Every reference doc and the 515-entry idea dataset the skill leans on live in a git submodule (ext/solana-new -> sendaifun/solana-new) that a plain `cp -r idea-sprint` install skips entirely - confirmed 404 on the stated in-repo path, 200 once fetched from the actual submodule source repo.
Scored on four weighted criteria — install, triggering, output vs. baseline, docs. How scoring works
- Installs cleanly 3/5
- Triggers reliably 5/5
- Output vs. baseline 7/10
- Docs & honesty 3/5
What Idea Sprint does
Runs a scripted interview (edge/constraint/wedge), applies a 'what gets worse without the blockchain' necessity gate, generates 3 scored candidates (0-15 across 5 dimensions), and writes a go/no-go decision to .claude/context/idea.md. Triggers on 'what should I build', 'validate this idea', or crypto project brainstorming. Nearly every reference rubric and its 515-entry idea dataset live in a git submodule (ext/solana-new) that a plain single-folder skill copy does not include.
How to install Idea Sprint
git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/solanabr/solana-ai-kit
cd solana-ai-kit
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
cp -r .claude/skills/idea-sprint ~/.claude/skills/idea-sprint
cp -r .claude/skills/ext/solana-new ~/.claude/skills/ext/solana-new # required: submodule holds all references/ and data/ files the skill links to
Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/
(per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.
Commands — how to trigger Idea Sprint

Run me through the necessity gate for this blockchain idea -
Score three candidate ideas and give me a go/no-go decision
Frequently asked questions
- Is the Idea Sprint skill free?
- Yes. The skill itself is free from solanabr/solana-ai-kit. SkillProof publishes the install command and an independent test verdict at no cost.
- Does Idea Sprint work with Claude Code?
- We tested it with Claude Code 2.x (agent harness) on Jul 13, 2026. Verdict: Works with setup. Every reference doc and the 515-entry idea dataset the skill leans on live in a git submodule (ext/solana-new -> sendaifun/solana-new) that a plain `cp -r idea-sprint` install skips entirely - confirmed 404 on the stated in-repo path, 200 once fetched from the actual submodule source repo.
- What is the Idea Sprint SkillProof Score?
- 7.2/10 — installs cleanly 3/5, triggers reliably 5/5, output vs. baseline 7/10, docs & honesty 3/5.
- How do I install Idea Sprint?
- Copy the install command from this page, run it in your terminal, and restart Claude Code. Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/ inside a project.
- Can I use Idea Sprint with Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Codex or other AI tools?
- The SKILL.md format is native to Claude (Claude Code, Desktop, claude.ai). The instructions inside adapt to other assistants: Cursor rules, GitHub Copilot instructions, Windsurf rules, Custom GPTs, AGENTS.md for OpenAI Codex, and GEMINI.md for Google Gemini CLI — our conversion guides cover each, and the free converter on the tools page does the wrapping for you.
