Higher-level OSS launch orchestrator that analyzes repos, selects channels, and coordinates launch plans.
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
# OSS Launch Kit (Orchestrator) The `oss-launch-kit` is the **root orchestration layer** for open-source launches in OpenDirectory. It turns a GitHub repository URL into a grounded, coordinated launch strategy. Rather than just writing generic copy, this skill serves as the **Strategic Entry Point**: it evaluates readiness, determines channel fitness (Show HN vs. Product Hunt vs. Reddit), and provides the coordination logic needed to use specialized skills effectively. ## How it works - **Project Analysis**: Differentiates between CLI tools, libraries, apps, and templates. - **Launch Readiness**: Stronger checks for installation guides, examples, and licenses. - **Skill Orchestration**: Provides hooks and explicit handoffs to `show-hn-writer`, `producthunt-launch-kit`, and `reddit-post-engine`. - **Coordinated Strategy**: A timed checklist for multi-channel launches. - **Honest Feedback**: Proactively flags sparse READMEs and recommends documentation sprints. ## When to use - **Primary Entry Point**: Use this first to map out your launch strategy. - **Readiness Assessment**: Determine if your repo is actually ready for high-friction channels. …

How to install
mdr add varnan-tech/opendirectory/oss-launch-kit@sha256:97a97b894e4249acThe line at the top of this page pins the label v0.2.0, 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.
