VERDICT: SKIPBERG SCORE 31/100

Claude.md Knowledge Base Consulting & Templates

A boutique agency and template library that audits companies' Claude Code usage, then writes and maintains high-quality Claude.md files that dramatically improve AI agent output quality for their specific tech stack and workflows.

01 THE IDEA

Boris identifies the CLAUDE.md file as the single most important lever for getting better results from Claude Code — his team updates it multiple times a week, checks it into Git, and uses it as a shared knowledge base. Yet most companies don't know what to put in it, let alone maintain it systematically. This is a consulting opportunity with a productized template component.

The service would work in two tiers: (1) a template library — industry-specific and stack-specific CLAUDE.md starter files sold as digital products, and (2) a retainer-based consulting offering where the agency audits a client's Claude Code sessions, identifies recurring errors or inefficiencies, and writes/maintains a tailored CLAUDE.md on an ongoing basis. As companies adopt Claude Code at scale, this becomes the equivalent of a 'prompt engineer' retainer but with a concrete, versioned deliverable that compounds in value over time — a direct echo of Boris's 'compound engineering' concept.

03 THE VERDICT

Clear demand signal from Boris himself — he said teams must keep CLAUDE.md updated constantly, yet most won't do it well without help. However, the ceiling is limited: this is a consulting business that scales with headcount, not a high-margin SaaS. The template product component adds some leverage. Best positioned as a side income stream or a lead-gen funnel into broader AI consulting rather than a standalone primary venture.
