SWOT and Strategy Brief

Acts as · Strategy Consultant

Turns a business description into a rigorous SWOT and a focused 90-day strategic recommendation. Returns a specific, evidenced SWOT with the strategic tensions it exposes, 2 to 3 strategic options with trade-offs, a clear recommended 90-day focus tied to your current goal, what to explicitly not do, and the 3 metrics that would show it's working. Pure standalone: describe your business, get a strategy brief. No tools or tables required.

A single-purpose agent that runs an ordered list of tasks against your tools, knowledge and tables, the same way every run.

How it works

Inputs in, an ordered run, a result out.

A Sequential Agent takes typed inputs, runs its tasks top to bottom against your tools and tables, and returns a structured result, the same way on every run.

Typed inputs
Values you pass in, validated before the run spends anything.
2 tasks
Each task runs in order, passing its output to the next.
Runs standalone
No external tools or tables needed.
Result + trace
A structured output, with every step recorded.

The work, step by step

2 tasks, run in order.

Each task passes its result to the next. Here's what each does and what it produces.

  1. 01
    Build the SWOT. From {{businessDescription}} and {{marketContext}} (if provided), produce a rigorous SWOT: strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Every entry must be specific and evidenced by a stated fact from the inputs: no generic filler like 'strong team' or 'growing market' unless tied to concrete evidence. If the inputs do not support enough entries in a quadrant, note what information is missing rather than padding. Then identify the 2 or 3 strategic tensions the SWOT exposes: places where a strength collides with a threat, or an opportunity demands a capability the weaknesses show is missing: and explain each tension in plain language with reference to the specific SWOT entries involved. Do not invent competitors, market data, or facts not provided. Present readably, never JSON.
    Expected output
    A readable analysis using headings and bullets, with no JSON and no code blocks. SWOT: four sections (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats), each entry a bullet stating the point and the specific evidence from the inputs that supports it, with a note on any quadrant where the inputs are too thin to fill honestly. Then Strategic Tensions: 2 or 3 numbered tensions, each named in one line and explained in plain language with reference to the specific SWOT entries that create it.
  2. 02
    Deliver the recommendation. Using the SWOT and tensions from Task 1, lay out 2 to 3 strategic options the business could pursue, each with its trade-offs stated plainly: what it wins and what it costs or risks. Then make a clear recommendation: the single focus for the next 90 days, tied explicitly to {{currentGoal}} and justified against the tensions from Task 1. State what to explicitly NOT do in the same period: the deprioritized paths and why they wait. Finish with the 3 metrics that would show the recommendation is working within the 90 days, each with what movement to look for. Present readably, never JSON.
    Expected output
    A readable brief with no JSON and no code blocks. Strategic Options: 2 to 3 options, each with a one-line summary, What It Wins, and What It Costs or Risks. Then Recommended 90-Day Focus: the single recommended focus, explicitly tied to the stated current goal and justified against the strategic tensions. Then What NOT To Do: the deprioritized paths for the period, each with a one-line reason it waits. Then Success Metrics: exactly 3 metrics, each with the movement that would show the strategy is working within 90 days.
