overseas-expansion-framework

overseas-expansion-framework is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from deciqAI/knowledge-skills. It costs 125 tokens per session (1,973 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A framework for choosing between selling into another country digitally or through exported goods, and establishing a local company and operations there. It treats these as different forms of international expansion.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to plan a first overseas move, compare local-presence and digital-first options, and assess whether international revenue requires local operations.
Why use it?
It helps prevent costly expansion decisions, such as opening a local office when a digital approach would be more suitable.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

overseas-expansion-framework scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 9d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Overseas Expansion Framework

Overview

International expansion forks into two models: Spirit Expansion (精神出海) — product/IP travels digitally or via exported goods, no local presence required — and Physical Expansion (实体出海) — the company establishes entities, hires locally, and embeds operations in-market. Wrong mode selection is among the most expensive strategic errors in international growth. Related: second-order-thinking before mode selection · lean-startup for minimum viable expansion · pareto-principle to prioritize markets.


When to Use / When NOT

Use when: "we want to go global" without specifying mode · designing first international expansion (digital-first vs. entity-first) · investor asks whether overseas revenue is Spirit or Physical · diagnosing a past international expansion failure. Do NOT use when: no home-market PMF (run pmf-crossing-the-chasm) · entity already operational · purely local service with no digital component · already have established presence in the target market.


Coaching Novices (Adaptive Front Door)

  • Engine mode: concrete expansion case → run The Process directly.
  • Coach mode: unfamiliar or no concrete case → guide step by step.

In Coach mode, respond one step at a time. Each [WAIT] is a hard stop — output only that step's question, then stop.

  1. Ask: "In 12 months, does your team in [target market] include local hires?" Name the implicit mode assumption.
  2. Check: does the product require local trust, local license, local logistics, or real-time local-language support? ≥2 yes → Physical likely; 0–1 → Spirit default.
  3. Introduce Spirit/Physical vocabulary using the mode the founder already implicitly holds.

[WAIT — do not advance until user responds]

  1. Map the 3 most common failure modes for the selected mode; stress-test the plan.

[WAIT — do not advance until user responds]

  1. Ask: "What would you need to see from Spirit before committing to Physical?" Surface the validation trigger gap as the key insight.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
