Perhaps this is an opportunity then. I looked in YC's Startup Documents and didn't see anything at all related to legal agreements between cofounders; maybe they will put something together someday.
The only protection from dilution I saw mentioned in this thread isn't doing so well (gray at this point):

an agreement from the company that neither of the remaining founders can receive additional shares for 2 years [...] is a pretty effective way to protect against dilution
- greglindahl 9y agoNot sure how it's an "opportunity" when it's a red flag that would prevent the startup from raising money!
- j_s 9y agoThanks for expanding this point a bit further. While dilution protection does sound like a unique opportunity at this time, as you've pointed out it isn't in the best interest of anyone other than departing co-founders. I don't want this specific point to detract from the original question asking for recommendations of competent template-y resources (legal agreements between cofounders) to build on when starting a startup.
