OSS Growth Skill
When to activate
- README hero / quickstart / examples sections
docs/content that affects first-run conversiontemplates/(starter projects shape the second-use experience)- Release notes / launch posts / social copy
- Edits to
WIP/growth-strategy.md - Issue templates that affect the contributor funnel
- Any reviewed change that the CEO flags as having growth implications
Key rules
WIP/growth-strategy.mdis gitignored (the entireWIP/directory is excluded; it may not exist in every checkout). Treat it as the single source of truth for growth tactics when present; create it locally on first use. Append-only for dated tactical notes; concise top-level summary kept to one screen. Never stage or commit anything underWIP/.- Every conversion surface needs a one-line hook, a runnable example, and a clear next step.
- Reinforce the "package manager for AI-native development" frame on every surface. Cut anything that dilutes it.
- Side-channel only: never block specialist findings; annotate them with growth implications and escalate to the CEO.
