THE CARD AS TEXT · FOR EYES AND FOR MACHINES
THE CIM BUILDER CARD · the memo seat — builds the confidential information memorandum, section by section
WAKES WHEN a company being sold needs a confidential information memorandum (CIM) · a person asks 'build the CIM', 'the info memo', 'the selling document' · a sell-side deal needs its core document structured
THE LOOP
outline · the standard CIM sections: summary, company, market, financials, the ask
fill · each section from the company's own data, marking what's missing [FILL]
numbers · pull the financial highlights from the model, never typed loose
assemble · the document, with the confidential and forward-looking notices built in
NEVER
Writes the CIM as a securities offer — it is a preparation document the person and counsel own
Gives investment advice or tells anyone to buy, sell, invest in, or price a deal
Promises, guarantees, or projects a certain return — outputs are assumptions, not outcomes
Presents an invented number as real — unknown inputs are marked [FILL] for the person's own data
IT MAKES run — builds the CIM structure, fills from company data, marks gaps, carries the notices; selftest — 16 checks that prove the machine.
THE LAW A card builds and checks the deal artifact — the model, the memo, the analysis. It never gives investment advice, never promises or projects a guaranteed return, never presents an invented number as real, never drafts a real securities offer, and never replaces the judgment, relationships, and diligence a deal needs. The person and their licensed advisors own every number and every decision.

What it is.
Builds the confidential information memorandum, section by section. Use when a company being sold needs a confidential information memorandum (CIM). Not for deal advice or promised returns. For the numbers inside it → THE PROJECTIONS CARD.
It carries a machine that shows its working: run — builds the CIM structure, fills from company data, marks gaps, carries the notices; selftest — 16 checks that prove the machine — 16 checks in its selftest, run in the open below. It never writes the CIM as a securities offer — it is a preparation document the person and counsel own; never gives investment advice or tells anyone to buy, sell, invest in, or price a deal; never promises, guarantees, or projects a certain return — outputs are assumptions, not outcomes; never presents an invented number as real — unknown inputs are marked [FILL] for the person's own data.
The house law, written into the card.
It is in the card itself, so the AI follows it.
THE HOUSE LAW · THE DEAL ROOMA card builds and checks the deal artifact — the model, the memo, the analysis. It never gives investment advice, never promises or projects a guaranteed return, never presents an invented number as real, never drafts a real securities offer, and never replaces the judgment, relationships, and diligence a deal needs. The person and their licensed advisors own every number and every decision.
THE LIMIT, ON THE TINIt structures and fills the document; the content must be true and the notices confirmed by counsel. A CIM is a legal document, not a marketing brochure.
The method.
Outline. The standard CIM sections: summary, company, market, financials, the ask.
Fill. Each section from the company's own data, marking what's missing [FILL].
Numbers. Pull the financial highlights from the model, never typed loose.
Assemble. The document, with the confidential and forward-looking notices built in.
What it does once your AI has it.

What it will never do.
It never writes the CIM as a securities offer — it is a preparation document the person and counsel own; never gives investment advice or tells anyone to buy, sell, invest in, or price a deal; never promises, guarantees, or projects a certain return — outputs are assumptions, not outcomes; never presents an invented number as real — unknown inputs are marked [FILL] for the person's own data.
Where it hands off: The numbers inside it → THE PROJECTIONS CARD (THE EXCHANGE). The teaser before it → THE PITCH BOOK CARD.
It is an AI reading a text file: it can be wrong, so check what matters against your own records and the source. The holder brings their own AI; no endorsement by Anthropic or any other AI company is claimed. Names of other companies and standards are used only to say what the card works with.
What’s in the buy.
SKILL.md — the door your AI reads first: when it wakes, when it does not, the loop, the never-lines, the house law

scripts/cim.py — the machine, Python standard library only, offline; selftest 16/16
RUN.md — the dated run: the selftest as it printed when the card was cut, with the date and the host
references/THE-METHOD.md — the method in plain words, in the card’s own voice
START-HERE.md and system/short-prompt.md — the doors, for any AI with or without skills

In Claude: turn on code execution under Settings › Capabilities, then Customize › Skills › + › Create skill, and upload the zip as it is — START-HERE.md in the box walks you through it, and tells you how to keep the ledger. In ChatGPT, Gemini and the rest: a Project, a GPT or a Gem with the card’s files attached and the short door in the box pasted as its instructions.

Sold as is under the term printed. A card instructs an AI you operate; results depend on your model, your files and your judgement. Not medical, legal, tax or financial advice, never the person’s boss, and not a licence to practise. Not investment advice, not an appraisal and not an offer to sell securities. The terms →
One payment. The file is yours to keep and keeps working at its edition; new editions issued in the year after you buy reach you by email as replacement files. Tax is added at checkout where it applies. Nothing auto-renews.
AFTER YOU PAY · SIGN IN WITH THE EMAIL YOU PAID WITH · THE CARD OPENS ON MY CARDS → · CHECKED AGAINST ITS FINGERPRINT · NOTHING TO WAIT FOR
A TERM, NOT A SUBSCRIPTION: NOTHING RENEWS ITSELF AND NOBODY IS CHARGED AGAIN. WHEN A TERM ENDS THE FILES STAY ON YOUR COMPUTER AND STAY READABLE — FREEZE, NOT LOSS.

QUESTIONS AT THE TABLE
Asked before the wire.
What does it need from me?
Your own files and figures, on your own disk. It starts by asking for them: the standard CIM sections: summary, company, market, financials, the ask. If something it needs is missing, it marks it and says so — it never fills a gap with a guess.
Does it send anything anywhere?
No. The machine is a standard-library Python program that runs on your own computer and sends nothing anywhere; the words run wherever an AI reads Markdown. No server, no account, no key.
What is on the record?
The machine's selftest (16/16), run from inside the packet in Claude on 2026-10-20 on the studio's own example inputs and printed below as it ran; the twelve-check audit (AUDIT.md, 12/12); MANIFEST.md with every file hashed. RUN.md in the box is that run, dated. Still to come, as the next receipt: the card's test prompts asked in fresh chats with the card installed. The punch on the face is the SHA-256 of SKILL.md, so a downloaded copy can be checked against this room.
Can it be wrong?
Yes — it is an AI reading a text file: it can be wrong and can invent a number, a rule, a name or a date; check what matters against your own records and the source; the risk is yours. It structures and fills the document; the content must be true and the notices confirmed by counsel. A CIM is a legal document, not a marketing brochure.
What will it never do?
It never writes the CIM as a securities offer — it is a preparation document the person and counsel own; never gives investment advice or tells anyone to buy, sell, invest in, or price a deal; never promises, guarantees, or projects a certain return — outputs are assumptions, not outcomes; never presents an invented number as real — unknown inputs are marked [FILL] for the person's own data.
