skills.txt - The GTM Co-Founder

A GTM system that decides what matters now.

The founder brief and roadmap set the sequence. The remaining skills provide thresholds, decision trees, examples, common mistakes, and a checklist you can run in the next 30 minutes.

Brief, then roadmap

  • start-here - Set up your founder brief so every skill knows your real business, grounded by a scan of your repo.
  • strategy-and-roadmap - Turn the brief into an honest diagnosis and a prioritized plan.
  • review-the-work - Stress-test any deliverable as a skeptic before it reaches you (a gate, runs throughout).

Figure out who it is for

  • who-is-this-for - Turn "developers" into a real ICP with a clear "not for."
  • talk-to-users - Get real evidence instead of guessing.
  • market-scan - Refresh your positioning when the market shifts.

Say it so it lands

  • positioning-and-story - Lead with their problem, and find your villain.
  • beyond-the-wrapper - Position an AI product when everyone claims AI (AI products only).
  • value-prop-that-converts - Kill puffery and say it so a developer repeats it.
  • the-homepage - Write for the developer who visits, not the buyer who doesn't.

Get the first users

  • time-to-first-value - Get people to the "aha" fast, and back again.
  • first-50-users - Find your first channel and your first users.
  • launch-it - Ship the Show HN, Reddit, or Product Hunt launch without fear.

Sell and grow

  • market-to-devs-sell-to-buyers - Turn developer love into revenue across the user and buyer gap.
  • pricing - Find the number, the value metric, and the free-to-paid line.
  • founder-led-sales - Run the first sales conversations and actually close.
  • growth-loops - Build the loops that get the next 5,000 users without you pushing.
  • founder-led-content - Do marketing that does not feel gross.

Know if it is working

  • know-if-its-working - Cut the vanity metrics and measure what matters.
