launch

A command that turns existing README and change-log content into launch and promotion materials for different platforms.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to prepare Dev.to articles, Hacker News posts, Reddit templates, social-media content, and submissions to curated project lists.
Why use it?
It avoids rewriting the same project information separately for each place where you announce a release.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Per session 17 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 577 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

launch scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 64 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

/launch

Transform your README and CHANGELOG into platform-specific posts for launching or announcing your project. Every artifact is derived from existing code and documentation — no generic marketing.

Behaviour

  1. Load the launch-artifacts skill for platform templates
  2. Load the feature-benefits skill for feature extraction (if not already done)
  3. If GitHub MCP tools are unavailable (GitLab/Bitbucket), search for awesome lists manually or via web search
  4. Read README.md and CHANGELOG.md for source content
  5. Generate the requested artifact(s) from the source content
  6. Write artifacts to docs/launch/ directory (not committed by default — review before posting)

Arguments

  • No arguments: Generate all applicable launch artifacts
  • devto: Dev.to article only
  • hn: Hacker News "Show HN" post only
  • reddit: Reddit post templates only
  • social: Social preview image guidance + Twitter/X thread
  • awesome: Awesome list submission PR template (searches for relevant awesome lists)

Output

Generated artifacts are written to docs/launch/:

├── hackernews-post.md         # HN title + first comment

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
