# Create Persuasive Executive Briefings

Technical work often loses impact when leaders see only activity logs. Pitchcraft turns raw materials into audience-aware briefings with clear context, evidence, risks, and asks.

## Capabilities

- Structures briefings around Hook, Context, Proposal, Evidence, and Ask.
- Supports project kickoff, status update, wrap-up, investor pitch, and solution selling scenarios.
- Prompts for missing audience, metric, risk, timeline, and decision inputs.
- Provides reusable templates for English and Simplified Chinese workflows.
- Includes a pre-submit checklist for metrics, risks, audience fit, and clear decisions.
- Can be installed for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or used as a pasted prompt.

## Use Cases

- Prepare a leadership status update: Turn progress notes, risks, metrics, and decisions into a concise update for executives.
- Frame a product kickoff request: Build a kickoff brief that explains opportunity, scope, assets, risks, and resource needs.
- Shape an investor or partner pitch: Organize market context, product value, traction, moat, team strength, and the requested next step.

## Prompt Templates

### Draft a first briefing

```
Help me create a status update for leaders. Ask me for the audience, current progress, key metrics, risks, and the decision I need.
```

### Improve a rough update

```
Rewrite this rough update using Hook, Context, Proposal, Evidence, and Ask. Keep the audience focused on decisions, risks, and business impact.
```

### Prepare a kickoff brief

```
Create a project kickoff brief for a leadership audience. Include opportunity, current assets, scope boundaries, milestones, proof, required resources, and top risks.
```

### Pressure-test a pitch

```
Review my investor pitch for missing evidence, weak claims, unclear audience fit, and an unfocused ask. Suggest stronger framing without inventing facts.
```

## Limitations

- It does not verify market data, financial claims, or internal metrics for accuracy.
- It cannot replace domain judgment about strategy, risk, pricing, or investor readiness.
- The npm package includes a postinstall installer that writes skill files into agent directories.
- It provides structure and drafting help, not slide design or visual asset generation.

## Best Practices

- Provide audience role, familiarity, top concerns, and the decision you need before asking for a draft.
- Attach sources or definitions for every metric so the final brief can make credible claims.
- State material risks early with root cause, mitigation, owner, and current status.

## Anti Patterns

- Using it to produce activity logs without a decision, ask, or audience concern.
- Letting the assistant invent metrics, market size, customer proof, or financial details.
- Publishing a brief without checking that scope, risks, and requested support are explicit.

## Security Audit

- - Safe to publish: true
- - Audited at: 2026-06-30T08:24:45.556\+00:00
- - Summary: Static analysis reported many high and critical patterns, but review found most are false positives from markdown examples, documentation URLs, license text, and Chinese-language files. The confirmed risk is the npm postinstall installer, which writes skill files into AI agent configuration directories and uses environment-controlled install scope. No malicious intent, data exfiltration, or prompt injection attempt was found.
