One boss a day.
Two ways in.

Player 1 proves it in five minutes. Player 2 ships it with a coach. They meet in the Guild.

Player 1 · the expertYou’ve been on call for years

A boss a day. Train. Fight. Top the board.

A boss a day.

Fourteen questions, one shot. The clock is the only pressure and the run is over in five minutes.

Fight

Prove it.

Your result is computed by the run, never typed. It lives on a proof page anyone can open — add it to LinkedIn.

Today’s boss, proved.

Illustrative example — not a real run. It mirrors the SkillBoss proof card; a real run renders your theme, tier, and seal.
High score

Your name on the board.

The Guild is the high-score table builders read when one of the ten systems holds them back. Your belts are your entry — one per hall, and a hall is one subject’s practice track.

The Guildbuilders with belts

  • Blue belt — Kubernetes hall
  • Orange belt — Git hall
  • White belt — Cloud hall

No stars, no reviews. The belt is the only claim.

Player 2 · the builderYou build with an agent

Press start. Read the HUD. Clear the final check.

Press start

One folder. A coach.

Paste one prompt. Your agent becomes a delivery coach: ten gates from Hello World to ship day, proof before every GO. No account. The kit makes no network call.

Your agentthe coach speaks
> Hello World

COACH ONLINE — SkillBoss Start Guide v2
CONTRACT ......... loaded (CONTRACT-CARD.md, 12 rules)
GATE MAP ......... 10 gates, 00-KICKOFF -> 90-SHIP
STATE ............ creating state/ from templates
NEXT ............. Gate 00 intake — I ask, you answer, nothing gets built yet.
HUD

Your dashboard.

A run screen rendered from the journal on every commit, never by hand: gates passed, guards that fired, what to do next.

Final check

Ten systems. Then meet the experts.

Ten systems sink new apps. Your agent runs the check and reports what it found — the house records it, dated. When one holds you back, a builder with a belt is one door away.

Your CI rebuilds the entire Docker image on every commit, so builds are slow even when only app code changed. Which Dockerfile change cuts rebuild time the most?

20 seconds remaining.

Speed breaks ties in the official run — it never adds to the score.

Demo content — it counts toward no run, no score, no leaderboard.

2P mode · the Guild

Their proof is your next quiet week.

Every belt on an expert’s page was earned, never typed. Every builder who opens the Guild has a board with a blank on it. That is the whole deal.
