OSS Launch Kit (Orchestrator)

The oss-launch-kit is the root orchestration layer for open-source launches in OpenDirectory. It turns a GitHub repository URL into a grounded, coordinated launch strategy.

Rather than just writing generic copy, this skill serves as the Strategic Entry Point: it evaluates readiness, determines channel fitness (Show HN vs. Product Hunt vs. Reddit), and provides the coordination logic needed to use specialized skills effectively.

How it works

  • Project Analysis: Differentiates between CLI tools, libraries, apps, and templates.
  • Launch Readiness: Stronger checks for installation guides, examples, and licenses.
  • Skill Orchestration: Provides hooks and explicit handoffs to show-hn-writer, producthunt-launch-kit, and reddit-post-engine.
  • Coordinated Strategy: A timed checklist for multi-channel launches.
  • Honest Feedback: Proactively flags sparse READMEs and recommends documentation sprints.

When to use

  • Primary Entry Point: Use this first to map out your launch strategy.
  • Readiness Assessment: Determine if your repo is actually ready for high-friction channels.
  • Skill Orchestration: Get hooks and handoffs to specialized skills:
  • show-hn-writer (for technical deep-dives)
  • producthunt-launch-kit (for PH assets and badges)
  • reddit-post-engine (for community-specific variants)
  • tweet-thread-from-blog (for Twitter/X threads)
  • linkedin-post-generator (for LinkedIn posts)
  • Coordinated Strategy: Get a realistic, timed checklist for multiple platforms.
