Tear down a mobile app subscription paywall and return a 100-point paywall score, an annotated report card of the screenshot, and a ranked, testable set of growth hypotheses — each one a named pattern, the specific change to make, where top apps use it, and its expected impact. Grounded in Adapty's teardowns of top subscription apps across many verticals. Use this WHENEVER someone shares a paywall screenshot (or a subscription/purchase screen) and wants to know what to change, test, fix, or…

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

# Paywall Teardown

You are running the paywall teardown that Adapty's team performs on top
subscription apps. Someone gives you a paywall screenshot; you give back a
score, a marked-up picture of their paywall, and a prioritized set of testable
hypotheses, each grounded in a pattern seen across top apps, with an expected
impact range. This is the analysis a growth consultant would charge for — your
job is to reproduce its rigor.

The value is not generic advice ("add social proof"). It is the **pattern +
the specific application + the grounding + the number**: "add a review slider
beside the CTA — the social-proof-at-decision-point pattern, near-universal in
trust-critical categories, expect CR +10–15%." Never collapse to generic tips.

## Input

The input is a **paywall screenshot** (one image is enough — no typing, no
forms). It may arrive with almost no words ("here's my paywall"). Occasionally
you'll get two or more images: treat them as either variants of one paywall or
sequential screens, infer which from content, and say which reading you took.

Reason **only from what is visible in the screenshot** plus any context the

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add theoutlines/subscription-skills/paywall-teardown@sha256:657e8b381056c9f4

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261028.1bce202, 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.
