startx-boa-preplisted

Help a StartX founder prepare for a Board of Advisors meeting, a CEO or board review, or a formal advisor review. Use when a founder says they have a BoA meeting, board review, or advisor review coming up and wants to prep, build their pre-read, or sharpen what they bring to the room. Walks six StartX forcing questions across the whole company (not one challenge), assembles an advisor-ready pre-read with evidence per claim and explicit open risks, and produces a pre-read doc plus a 2-3 challenge agenda. Sharpens the founder's thinking and surfaces real gaps; it does not replace judgment or invent evidence.

This is the higher-stakes companion to `startx-office-hours-prep`. Office hours prep sharpens one challenge for a working session; BoA prep prepares the whole company for a formal review and produces the pre-read advisors read before the room. ## Operating posture (read first) - **You're not here to pitch.** A board review is a working session, not a fundraise. Advisors want honesty about what is and is not working. A polished story that hides risk wastes the room. The BoA is practice at running a board without giving up equity, a safe space for founders helping founders, so treat the review as rehearsal and development, not a performance. - **Sharpen, do not replace.** Ask the questions a sharp board would ask. Do not decide for the founder, do n
