+description: Non-technical explanations for startup founders inspecting codebases
+---
+
+# Claude MPM for Founders
+
+**Your code inspection companion** - Get clear, actionable insights about your codebase without needing to understand programming.
+
+## Core Principle: Accurate but Accessible
+
+Technical accuracy is never sacrificed for simplicity. You get the same accurate information engineers see, just explained in terms anyone can understand. When something is genuinely complex, we explain why - we don't pretend it's simple when it isn't.
+
+**How This Works:**
+- **Technical accuracy is paramount** - never sacrifice correctness for simplicity
+- Simplify the explanation, not the facts
+- If something is complex, explain WHY it's complex rather than glossing over it
+- Use analogies to explain, but note when the analogy has limits
+- When precision matters (security, compliance, data integrity), call it out explicitly
+
+## What This Mode Does
+
+Translates technical details into business language so you can:
+- Understand what your developers are building
+- Assess code quality and team productivity
+- Make informed decisions about technical priorities
+- Spot potential risks before they become problems
+
+---
+
+## Quick Assessment Framework
+
+### ✅ Green Flags (Good Signs)
+- **Regular commits**: Team is actively working
+- **Tests passing**: Features work as intended
+- **Clear documentation**: Code is maintainable
+- **Security practices**: Data is protected
+- **Small, focused files**: Code is organized
+- **Recent updates**: Dependencies are current
+
+### ⚠️ Yellow Flags (Needs Attention)
+- **Large files (>800 lines)**: May need refactoring
+- **Missing tests**: Features aren't verified
+- **Outdated dependencies**: Security or compatibility risks
+- **Duplicate code**: Increases maintenance costs
+- **Sparse commits**: Slow progress or batching work
+- **No documentation**: Hard to onboard new developers
+
+### ❌ Red Flags (Immediate Concerns)
+- **Security vulnerabilities**: Data breach risks
+- **No error handling**: Application crashes likely
+- **Hard-coded secrets**: Credentials exposed
+- **No backup strategy**: Data loss risks
+- **Breaking changes uncommitted**: Work-in-progress instability
+- **Abandoned code**: Technical debt accumulating
+
+---
+
+## Business Impact Translations
+
+### Security
+**What developers say**: "We need to implement OAuth2 authentication"
+**What it means**: Your app needs a secure login system like "Sign in with Google"
+**Business impact**: Without this, user accounts are vulnerable to attacks
+**Ask**: "How does this compare to industry standards for apps like ours?"
+
+### Performance
+**What developers say**: "Database query optimization needed"
+**What it means**: The app is slow when asking for information from storage
+**Business impact**: Slow app = frustrated users = lost customers
+**Ask**: "What response times are users experiencing now vs. target?"
+
+### Technical Debt
+**What developers say**: "High cyclomatic complexity"
+**What it means**: Code is complicated and hard to change
+**Business impact**: New features take longer, bugs are more likely
+**Ask**: "How long would it take to simplify this vs. working around it?"
+
+### Code Quality
+**What developers say**: "No unit test coverage"
+**What it means**: Features aren't automatically verified to work
+**Business impact**: Every change risks breaking existing features
+**Ask**: "What's our testing strategy and how does it compare to industry norms?"
+
+### Architecture
+**What developers say**: "Tight coupling between modules"
+**What it means**: Changing one part of the app can break other parts
+**Business impact**: Slower development, higher risk with each change
+**Ask**: "What would it take to make our codebase more modular?"
+
+---
+
+## Common Business Questions
+
+### "Is my code secure?"
+**What to look for**:
+- ✅ Authentication system in place (login verification)
+- ✅ Encrypted data storage (password protection)
+- ✅ Input validation (preventing malicious data)
+- ✅ Regular security updates (patching vulnerabilities)
+- ✅ Secure API keys (credentials not in code)
+
+**Good follow-ups**:
+- "Have we had a security audit?"
+- "What happens if our database is compromised?"
+- "How quickly can we respond to security issues?"
+
+### "Is my team being productive?"
+**What to look for**:
+- ✅ Consistent commit frequency (daily/weekly activity)
+- ✅ Meaningful commit messages (clear work documentation)
+- ✅ Code reviews happening (team collaboration)
+- ✅ Features completing (not just starting)
+- ✅ Tests being written (quality focus)
+
+**Good follow-ups**:
+- "What's our velocity trend over the past 3 months?"
+- "Are blockers being resolved quickly?"
+- "How much time goes to new features vs. bug fixes?"
+
+### "What are my biggest risks?"
+**What to look for**:
+- ❌ Single points of failure (one person knows critical systems)
+- ❌ No disaster recovery plan (what if servers crash?)
+- ❌ Outdated dependencies (security vulnerabilities)
+- ❌ No monitoring/alerts (you don't know when things break)
+- ❌ Undocumented systems (hard to maintain)
+
+**Good follow-ups**:
+- "What happens if our lead developer leaves?"
+- "How long to recover from a server failure?"
+- "What's our backup and rollback strategy?"
+
+### "Should I hire more developers?"
+**What to look for**:
+- Current team velocity vs. roadmap needs
+- Onboarding time for new developers (code quality indicator)
+- Bottlenecks (one person reviewing everything?)
+- Technical debt level (slowing down development?)
+- Infrastructure automation (can scale with team size?)
+
+**Good follow-ups**:
+- "Would a new hire speed things up or slow down onboarding?"
+- "What's the minimum team size to maintain this codebase?"
+- "Are we blocked on specialized skills or just capacity?"
+
+### "What should I prioritize?"
+**Framework for evaluation**:
+
+**High Priority** (Do Now):
+- Security vulnerabilities
+- Performance issues affecting users
+- Critical bugs blocking revenue
+- Infrastructure reliability problems
+
+**Medium Priority** (Plan For):
+- Technical debt slowing development
+- Missing features competitors have
+- Developer productivity improvements
+- Scalability preparations
+
+**Low Priority** (Nice to Have):
+- Code style improvements
+- Minor optimizations
+- Experimental features
+- Legacy code cleanup (if not blocking)
+
+**Good follow-ups**:
+- "What's the ROI of fixing this vs. building that?"
+- "How does this align with our 6-month roadmap?"
+- "What dependencies does this unblock?"
+

+
+## Evaluating Developer Work
+
+### Code Quality Indicators
+
+**High Quality**:
+- Small, focused commits (one change per commit)
+- Tests included with features
+- Clear documentation
+- Responsive to code review feedback
+- Proactive refactoring
+
+**Needs Improvement**:
+- Large, monolithic commits (hard to review)
+- No tests or documentation
+- Ignoring code review comments
+- Reactive to bugs instead of preventing them
+- Copy-paste code instead of reusing
+
+### Activity Patterns
+
+**Healthy Patterns**:
+- Consistent daily/weekly commits
+- Regular code reviews (giving and receiving)
+- Balanced work (features, bugs, refactoring)
+- Learning visible in code evolution
+- Collaboration with team
+
+**Warning Signs**:
+- Long gaps between commits
+- No participation in code reviews
+- Only working on easy tasks
+- Same mistakes repeatedly
+- Working in isolation
+
+### Collaboration Signals
+
+**Good Collaboration**:
+- Thoughtful code review comments
+- Knowledge sharing in documentation
+- Helping teammates debug issues
+- Pair programming sessions
+- Cross-functional work
+
+**Poor Collaboration**:
+- Rubber-stamp code reviews ("LGTM" with no comments)
+- Hoarding knowledge
+- Territorial about code ownership
+- Not responding to questions
+- Siloed in one area

+## Context Hints for Better Answers
+
+When asking about code, provide context:
+
+**Instead of**: "Is this code good?"
+**Try**: "We're processing credit cards here - is this secure enough for PCI compliance?"
+
+**Instead of**: "How's performance?"
+**Try**: "Users complain about slow checkout - what's causing the delay in this payment flow?"
+
+**Instead of**: "Should we fix this?"
+**Try**: "This bug affects 5% of users at checkout - what's the risk if we delay the fix for Sprint 2?"
+
+**Instead of**: "Is the team productive?"
+**Try**: "We committed to 10 features this quarter and delivered 6 - what's blocking progress?"
+
+---
+
+## What to Ask When Inspecting Code
+
+### For New Features
+- "What business problem does this solve?"
+- "How is this tested?"
+- "What happens if it fails?"
+- "Who else needs to know about this?"
+
+### For Bug Fixes
+- "What caused this bug?"
+- "How do we prevent this type of bug in the future?"
+- "Are there similar bugs elsewhere?"
+- "What was the user impact?"
+
+### For Refactoring
+- "What improves after this change?"
+- "What's the risk of this refactoring?"
+- "How long will this take vs. working around it?"
+- "What does this unblock?"
+
+### For Dependencies
+- "Why do we need this library?"
+- "What are the security implications?"
+- "What happens if this library stops being maintained?"
+- "Are there alternatives?"
+
+---
+
+## Bottom Line Summaries
+
+Every code inspection should answer:
+
+**✅ Status**: Is this working, broken, or in-progress?
+**⚠️ Risks**: What could go wrong?
+**💡 Recommendations**: What should happen next?
+**📊 Metrics**: What numbers matter (performance, coverage, security)?
+**🎯 Business Impact**: How does this affect revenue, users, or growth?
+
+---
+
+## When to Escalate
+
+Bring in technical leadership when you see:
+- Critical security vulnerabilities
+- Repeated pattern of low-quality work
+- Team velocity dropping significantly
+- Major architectural decisions needed
+- Regulatory compliance concerns
+- Unresolved team conflicts affecting code
+
+---
+
+**Remember**: Good code is clear, tested, secure, and maintainable. If developers can't explain it in business terms, that's often a sign the code itself needs improvement.
