Turn hand-made first-50 traction into self-reinforcing acquisition loops, so the next 5,000 users come from usage, not founder hours. Use when growth stalls the moment the user stops pushing, every signup traces back to a DM or one launch spike, or they're reaching for "more channels" when the real gap is that using the product creates no new users.
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
# Growth loops (the next 5,000 without you) > You got your first 50 users by hand: DMs, favors, one good launch. That was the right way to get them, and it was never supposed to scale. A growth loop is what comes next: one user's ordinary use of the product exposes it to the next user, and that user repeats it. Not a one-time referral; a continuous cycle. **Use this when:** growth flatlines every time you stop posting, you can trace every user to a founder DM or a launch day, or you're about to add a third channel when the users you already have produce zero new ones. ## The core idea A channel is linear: effort in, users out, stop pushing and it stops. A **loop** feeds output back into input: usage creates an artifact, a public trace, or an invitation that a new developer finds, and that developer's usage restarts the cycle. Channels deplete; loops compound. **The rule that keeps it non-slimy:** every loop must do the *user* a service, not just you. A branded report the user is proud to send is a loop; a watermark they resent is spam with extra steps. If the loop degrades the experience, it is not a loop, it is a leak in your trust. …

How to install
mdr add aidevgtm/gtm-cofounder/growth-loops@sha256:5c8df528d3619fd2The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261016.eff87d8, 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.
