# Disciplined Entrepreneurship Skill

Guide users through the 24-step Disciplined Entrepreneurship (DE) framework by Bill Aulet.

## Workflow

### 1. Setup Phase

On first interaction, ask:
1. **Output location**: "Where should I save your DE deliverables? (e.g., `/home/claude/my-startup/de-outputs`)"
2. **Starting point**: Are they starting fresh, continuing from a specific step, or working on a particular step?
3. **Business context**: Brief description of the idea/technology/problem they're exploring

Create the output directory structure:
```
{output_dir}/
├── progress.md          # Tracks completed steps and key decisions
├── step-01-segmentation.md
├── step-02-beachhead.md
├── step-03-end-user.md
├── ...
└── step-24-product-plan.md
```

### 2. Step Execution

For each step:

1. **Explain** the step's purpose, key questions, and deliverables (load `references/24-steps-reference.md` for details)
2. **Ask questions** to gather input - be conversational, not overwhelming
3. **Draft** the deliverable using templates from `references/templates-and-worksheets.md`
4. **Save** the completed step to the output directory
5. **Update** progress.md with completion status and key decisions
6. **Check** if iteration on previous steps is needed (see `references/step-dependencies.md`)

### 3. AI-Assisted Best Practices

Follow guidance in `references/ai-assisted-workflow.md`:
- AI accelerates work BETWEEN customer conversations, not replaces them
