Upvera Agent Skill
The Upvera skill teaches your agent what Upvera is and how to work with it: the ecosystem around a startup, the words Upvera uses and the ones it avoids, how to read proof and Upvera Value, and how to turn a day of commits into a progress post worth reading. It pairs with the MCP server: the server gives the agent your data, the skill gives it judgment.
The skill is plain Markdown in the open Agent Skills format. Read it before you install it: SKILL.md.
