c-level-advisor FAQ
It uses a routing matrix based on topic signals: fundraising/burn → CFO, architecture/tech debt → CTO, hiring/culture → CHRO, GTM/positioning → CMO, revenue/pipeline → CRO, security/compliance → CISO, product roadmap → CPO, ops/scaling → COO, vision/strategy → CEO, founder psychology → Executive Mentor. Multi-domain questions trigger a full board meeting.
Prefixing with a role name (e.g., CTO: ...) bypasses routing and goes straight to that executive, but the Chief of Staff still logs the exchange. Use direct addressing when you know exactly which perspective you need.
Phase 2 enforces isolation: each role produces independent analysis without cross-talk before Phase 3 debate. Dissenting views are preserved in the log, and you must confirm at least 3 roles have weighed in before accepting a conclusion.
Re-run /cs:setup whenever your stage, metrics, team size, or priorities shift significantly. All agents read company-context.md, so updates propagate immediately.
Yes. The ecosystem covers hiring, product roadmap, GTM strategy, security posture, ops scaling, culture, and founder psychology. Any strategic question can be routed to the appropriate role.

C-Level Advisory Ecosystem
A complete virtual board of directors for founders and executives.
Quick Start
1. Run /cs:setup → creates company-context.md (all agents read this)
✓ Verify company-context.md was created and contains your company name,
stage, and core metrics before proceeding.
2. Ask any strategic question → Chief of Staff routes to the right role
3. For big decisions → /cs:board triggers a multi-role board meeting
✓ Confirm at least 3 roles have weighed in before accepting a conclusion.
Commands
/cs:setup — Onboarding Questionnaire
Walks through the following prompts and writes company-context.md to the project root. Run once per company or when context changes significantly.
Q1. What is your company name and one-line description?
Q2. What stage are you at? (Idea / Pre-seed / Seed / Series A / Series B+)
Q3. What is your current ARR (or MRR) and runway in months?
Q4. What is your team size and structure?
Q5. What industry and customer segment do you serve?
Q6. What are your top 3 priorities for the next 90 days?
Q7. What is your biggest current risk or blocker?
After collecting answers, the agent writes structured output:
# Company Context
- Name: <answer>
- Stage: <answer>
- Industry: <answer>
- Team size: <answer>
- Key metrics: <ARR/MRR, growth rate, runway>
- Top priorities: <answer>
- Key risks: <answer>
/cs:board — Full Board Meeting
Convenes all relevant executive roles in three phases:
Phase 1 — Framing: Chief of Staff states the decision and success criteria.
Phase 2 — Isolation: Each role produces independent analysis (no cross-talk).
Phase 3 — Debate: Roles surface conflicts, stress-test assumptions, align on
a recommendation. Dissenting views are preserved in the log.
Use for high-stakes or cross-functional decisions. Confirm at least 3 roles have weighed in before accepting a conclusion.
Chief of Staff Routing Matrix
When a question arrives without a role prefix, the Chief of Staff maps it to the appropriate executive using these primary signals:
| Topic Signal | Primary Role | Supporting Roles |
|---|---|---|
| Fundraising, valuation, burn | CFO | CEO, CRO |
| Architecture, build vs. buy, tech debt | CTO | CPO, CISO |
| Hiring, culture, performance | CHRO | CEO, Executive Mentor |
| GTM, demand gen, positioning | CMO | CRO, CPO |
| Revenue, pipeline, sales motion | CRO | CMO, CFO |
| Security, compliance, risk | CISO | CTO, CFO |
| Product roadmap, prioritisation | CPO | CTO, CMO |
| Ops, process, scaling | COO | CFO, CHRO |
| Vision, strategy, investor relations | CEO | Executive Mentor |
| Career, founder psychology, leadership | Executive Mentor | CEO, CHRO |
| Multi-domain / unclear | Chief of Staff convenes board | All relevant roles |
Invoking a Specific Role Directly
To bypass Chief of Staff routing and address one executive directly, prefix your question with the role name:
CFO: What is our optimal burn rate heading into a Series A?
CTO: Should we rebuild our auth layer in-house or buy a solution?
CHRO: How do we design a performance review process for a 15-person team?
The Chief of Staff still logs the exchange; only routing is skipped.
Example: Strategic Question
Input: "Should we raise a Series A now or extend runway and grow ARR first?"
Output format:
- Bottom Line: Extend runway 6 months; raise at $2M ARR for better terms.
- What: Current $800K ARR is below the threshold most Series A investors benchmark.
- Why: Raising now increases dilution risk; 6-month extension is achievable with current burn.
- How to Act: Cut 2 low-ROI channels, hit $2M ARR, then run a 6-week fundraise sprint.
- Your Decision: Proceed with extension / Raise now anyway (choose one).
Example: company-context.md (after /cs:setup)
# Company Context
- Name: Acme Inc.
- Stage: Seed ($800K ARR)
- Industry: B2B SaaS
- Team size: 12
- Key metrics: 15% MoM growth, 18-month runway
- Top priorities: Series A readiness, enterprise GTM
