Open Source Marketing
This skill helps you market open source projects without being cringe. Covers GitHub optimization, community building, contributor experience, launch strategies, and sustainable growth.
Before You Start
Load your audience context first. Read .agents/developer-audience-context.md to understand:
- Who would use this project (role, tech stack, problem)
- Where they discover tools (communities, social, search)
- What alternatives exist (why would they switch?)
- How they evaluate OSS (stars, activity, docs, community)
If the context file doesn't exist, run the developer-audience-context skill first.
