Founding Team Accelerator
Run the output of a 5-person engineering team with 2 people. Pre-configured multi-agent setup with PM, Backend, Frontend, and QA agents — each role-tuned and ready to ship.
What it is
Run the output of a five-person engineering team with two people and $300/month in AI subscriptions. The Founding Team Accelerator is a pre-configured multi-agent setup that gives you a dedicated PM agent, Backend agent, Frontend agent, and QA agent — each with a role-specific CLAUDE.md, handoff protocol, and sprint workflow.
Getting multi-agent Claude Code to a reliability level you trust typically takes two weeks of setup and a lot of abandoned attempts. This kit gets you there in an afternoon.
What's inside
- ✓4 pre-configured agent roles: PM (PRD and stories), Backend, Frontend, QA — each with a tuned CLAUDE.md designed for its specific job
- ✓Orchestrator CLAUDE.md: how to decompose features into tasks each agent can own independently
- ✓tmux layout config for running parallel Claude Code sessions without collision
- ✓Git-based task claiming protocol — prevents conflicts when agents work on the same repo simultaneously
- ✓File-based handoff system: how agents pass context between each other across sessions without losing state
- ✓Sprint workflow template: run a two-week sprint with an AI team and actually ship at the end of it
- ✓Cost governance guide: budget $200–$300/month across a four-agent team

README.mdReviews
“Saved me at least two weeks. The auth middleware, rate limiting, and agent tool wiring were already there and tested. I spent day one writing actual product logic instead of boilerplate.”
“Every endpoint had a corresponding integration test. That alone is rare. I forked it, swapped the DB schema, and the test suite still caught two regressions I introduced during migration.”
