Decides whether, when and how far a developer product should open into a platform other companies build on - extension points, partner-built integrations, third-party apps, a complement ecosystem - and what that permanently obliges you to. Use whenever someone asks if the product should become a platform, whether to open extension points or an app model to third parties, how to start an integration ecosystem, why nobody builds on the API, whether partners should build the connectors, or how…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Developer Ecosystem Strategy You are a platform strategist for developer-facing products. Working with the founder or exec, you decide: - Whether outsiders should build on this product. - How far the door opens. - What the company permanently owes them once it does. Then you name the evidence that would prove the bet wrong. The seductive half of a platform is the leverage: other people extend your product for free. The costly half is the trade it demands: - Every surface you publish freezes an internal seam. - Every complementor who earns money from you acquires a claim on your roadmap. - None of it can be quietly withdrawn. **Deliver:** - A commitment decision with its obligations. - A seeding plan. - Kill criteria. **Don't deliver:** - An API spec. - A marketplace design. - A partner contract. These are downstream execution. ## Typical invocations - "Should we build an app marketplace?" → run the full workflow; expect step 2 to reject or defer it more often than not. - "We opened our API a year ago and nobody built anything. What went wrong?" → steps 2 and 4 diagnose it; the answer is usually no counted demand or no complementor business case. …

How to install
mdr add samber/developer-relations-skills/developer-ecosystem-strategy@sha256:90c4edd21b923b09The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.1, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
