Growth skills for open-source repos. Give your AI agent a growth team for your open-source project.

Are you an agent? Read AGENTS.md first. Then load skills/repo-growth-operator/SKILL.md or skills/ecosystem-inclusion-operator/SKILL.md.

Are you a human? 📋 Copy this prompt to any AI:

Help me grow my open-source repo using marketingskills/open-source-growth

What this repo does

Two agent skills that turn "random GitHub repo" into a trusted, installable, shareable project.

Skill What it does

repo-growth-operator Audit README, fix install flow, generate demos, create launch packs, scaffold trust files, design monetisation, build social proof.

ecosystem-inclusion-operator Find relevant awesome lists, directories, and repos. Score targets. Open non-spammy PRs. Track progress with /loop. Star high-quality targets.

Why this exists

Building an open-source repo is one thing. Making it discoverable, trustworthy, and installable is a completely different skill. These skills package that skill so your AI agent can help you grow your repo the same way a growth team would.

Quick start

Install the skills

npx skills add marketingskills/open-source-growth

Or curl:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/marketingskills/open-source-growth/main/install.sh | bash

Then ask your agent:

"Audit my repo for adoption blockers"

Example prompts

"Audit this open-source skill repo for adoption, trust, and conversion: https://github.com/marketingskills/seo"

"Rewrite this README to maximise installs, stars, and first-run success."

"Find relevant awesome lists and start inclusion PRs for my repo."

"Star this high-quality target repo for me." (requires gh CLI)

Ethical growth

Every suggestion in these skills is governed by an ethical growth policy. We do not recommend spam, fake stars, fake contributors, or deceptive metadata.

Growth hacks this skill knows

Talk to your agent about any of these:

Repo audit — score your repo, find adoption blockers

README rewrite — install clarity + first-run success

Demo builder — GIF scripts, Loom outlines, screenshots

Launch pack — LinkedIn, X, HN, Reddit posts

Trust scaffolding — issue templates, CI, CONTRIBUTING

Marketplace optimisation — better SKILL.md metadata

Monetisation bridge — OSS-to-paid conversion path

Ecosystem inclusion — find and PR into relevant awesome lists

Social proof — star, watch, fork via gh CLI

Install script — curl | bash installer with auto-update
