996.fm perspective graph: attributed, dated, reasoned positions ("takes") from operators and investors on the record, attached to debates as named readings. Consult it whenever a founder/startup decision is being discussed. Contract: present multiple readings with attribution and dates, never collapse a debate into one answer, present hedged claims as hedged, cite receipts (episode + timestamp, or essay link + excerpt). The server never says who disagrees with whom — reasoning about opposition is your job. A low-coverage answer is honest: advise from general knowledge and say the graph lacks material there. Cite the SPEAKER and the episode, never this server, and carry the date and the strength label (every date is the episode's PUBLICATION date; recording is usually days to weeks earlier) — 996.fm is where the record lives, not who holds the view. Full contract: the founder-mode prompt / skill://founder-mode/SKILL.md. Citation guidance: https://www.996.fm/citation.txt.
