+# yc — CLI for YC Startup School, a16z Speedrun, SPC & Startup Discovery
+
+A CLI tool for managing your YC Startup School journey, submitting a16z Speedrun and South Park Commons applications, and discovering 24+ accelerators, fellowships, and incubators — all from the terminal.
+
+> ### Easiest way to get started
+>
+> Paste this to your AI coding agent (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, Windsurf, OpenClaw, etc.):
+>
+> **"Install the `@lucasygu/yc-cli` tool via npm and run `yc whoami` to verify it works. Repo: https://github.com/lucasygu/yc-cli"**
+>
+> OpenClaw users can also run: **`clawhub install yc`**
+>
+> The agent will handle installation, verify the connection, and troubleshoot any cookie issues. Just make sure you're logged into [startupschool.org](https://www.startupschool.org/) in Chrome first.
+>
+> Once installed, try: **"Check my YC Startup School dashboard and submit this week's update"** — the agent will pull your streak, curriculum progress, and walk you through submitting.
+
+## Install
+
+```bash
+npm install -g @lucasygu/yc-cli
+# Or via ClawHub (OpenClaw ecosystem)
+clawhub install yc
+```
+
+Requires Node.js >= 22.
+
+- **YC Startup School**: Uses cookies from your Chrome browser session — log into [startupschool.org](https://www.startupschool.org/) in Chrome first.
+- **a16z Speedrun**: No authentication needed (public API).
+- **South Park Commons**: Uses Playwright (headless Chromium) to fill Airtable forms — no auth needed.
+
+After installing, run `yc whoami` to verify the connection. If macOS shows a Keychain prompt, click "Always Allow". The CLI auto-detects all Chrome profiles to find your YC session.
+
+## What You Can Do
+
+- **Dashboard tracking** — Check your streak, curriculum progress, and weekly update status
+- **Weekly updates** — Submit updates from the terminal (interactive or scripted)
+- **Update history** — Review all past updates with metrics, morale, and goals
+- **Speedrun applications** — Apply to a16z Speedrun with a JSON template or interactively
+- **Deck upload** — Upload pitch deck PDFs for Speedrun applications
+- **SPC applications** — Apply to South Park Commons Founder Fellowship or Community Membership via Playwright browser automation
+- **Program discovery** — Browse 24+ curated accelerators, fellowships, and incubators with deadlines, terms, and application links
+
+When used through an AI agent, these workflows chain together automatically. Each CLI command also works standalone.

+
+| Program | Funding | Duration |
+|---------|---------|----------|
+| Founder Fellowship | $400K for 7% + $600K follow-on | Cohort-based (Spring/Fall) |
+| Community Membership | No funding | Up to 6 months |
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+| Problem | Solution |
+|---------|----------|
+| `No session cookie found` | Log into startupschool.org in Chrome, then retry |
+| macOS Keychain prompt | Enter your password and click "Always Allow" — the CLI needs to decrypt Chrome's cookies |
+| Multiple Chrome profiles | The CLI auto-scans all profiles. To pick one: `--chrome-profile "Profile 1"` |
+| Using Brave/Arc/other | Try `--cookie-source safari`, or log into startupschool.org in Chrome |
+| Speedrun API error | No auth needed — check your internet connection |
+| SPC form timeout | Airtable forms are heavy SPAs. Retry or use `--headed` to debug |
+
+## How It Works
+
+**YC Startup School** — Reads your session cookies from Chrome (via [@steipete/sweet-cookie](https://github.com/steipete/sweet-cookie)), extracts the Rails CSRF token, then uses GraphQL for reads (`/graphql` endpoint) and Rails REST for writes (weekly update submission). No browser automation needed — just HTTP requests.
+
+**a16z Speedrun** — Direct JSON API calls to Speedrun's public endpoint. No authentication, no signing, no cookies. Upload pitch decks via GCS signed URLs.
+
+**South Park Commons** — SPC uses Airtable Interface forms (client-rendered SPAs). Since there's no public API, the CLI uses [Playwright](https://playwright.dev/) to navigate, fill, and submit the form programmatically. Supports headless and headed modes for preview before submission.
+
+## Workflows
+
+### Weekly Update Routine
+
+```bash
+yc dashboard            # Check streak and status
+yc new                  # Submit this week's update
+yc updates              # Verify it's there
+```
+
+### Speedrun Application via AI Agent
+
+```bash
+yc speedrun template > /tmp/speedrun-app.json         # Generate template
+# ... AI fills in the JSON with your details ...
+yc speedrun apply --from-json /tmp/speedrun-app.json --dry-run  # Validate
+yc speedrun apply --from-json /tmp/speedrun-app.json            # Submit
+```
+
+### SPC Application via AI Agent
+
+```bash
+yc spc template > /tmp/spc-app.json                           # Generate template
+# ... AI fills in the JSON with your details ...
+yc spc apply --from-json /tmp/spc-app.json --dry-run --headed  # Preview in browser
+yc spc apply --from-json /tmp/spc-app.json                     # Submit
+```
+
+## AI Agent Integration
+
+### Claude Code
+
+Installs automatically as a Claude Code skill. Use `/yc` in Claude Code:
+
+```
+/yc whoami                    # Test connection
+/yc dashboard                 # Check streak
+/yc new                       # Submit weekly update
+/yc speedrun apply            # Apply to a16z Speedrun
+/yc spc apply                 # Apply to SPC
+```
+
+You can give natural language instructions for complex tasks:
+
+- *"Check my Startup School dashboard and tell me if I need to submit this week"*
+- *"Submit my weekly update — metric is 15, morale is 8, talked to 5 users"*
+- *"Help me apply to a16z Speedrun with my startup details"*
+- *"Fill out an SPC Founder Fellowship application for me"*
+
+Claude will automatically generate templates, fill in your details, validate, and submit.
+
+### OpenClaw / ClawHub
+
+Officially supports [OpenClaw](https://openclaw.ai) and [ClawHub](https://docs.openclaw.ai/tools/clawhub). Install via ClawHub:
+
+```bash
+clawhub install yc
+```
+
+All `yc` commands are available in OpenClaw after installation. The SKILL.md is compatible with both Claude Code and OpenClaw ecosystems.
+
+## Authentication
+
+| Platform | Method | Setup |
+|----------|--------|-------|
+| YC Startup School | Chrome session cookies | Log into startupschool.org in Chrome |
+| a16z Speedrun | None (public API) | — |
+| South Park Commons | Playwright (headless browser) | — |
+
+## Disclaimer
+
+This tool uses unofficial APIs for YC Startup School. YC may change or block these APIs at any time. The a16z Speedrun API is public. SPC uses Playwright to fill Airtable forms. Use responsibly and at your own risk. This project is not affiliated with Y Combinator, a16z, or South Park Commons.

 ## Authentication
 
-YC CLI extracts session cookies directly from your browser — no API keys or tokens needed. Just log in to startupschool.org in Chrome and the CLI handles the rest.
-
-If you get authentication errors:
-1. Open Chrome and visit https://www.startupschool.org/
-2. Make sure you're logged in (can see dashboard)
-3. Try running `yc whoami` again
-4. If still failing, log out and back in to refresh your session
+- **YC Startup School**: Extracts session cookies from Chrome — log in at startupschool.org first.
+- **a16z Speedrun**: No authentication needed. The API is public.
+- **South Park Commons**: No auth needed. Uses Playwright (headless Chromium) to fill Airtable forms.
