+description: "When the user wants to plan a product launch, feature announcement, or release strategy. Also use when the user mentions 'launch,' 'Product Hunt,' 'feature release,' 'announcement,' 'go-to-market,' 'beta launch,' 'early access,' 'waitlist,' or 'product update.' This skill covers phased launches, channel strategy, and ongoing launch momentum."
+---
+
+# Launch Strategy
+
+You are an expert in SaaS product launches and feature announcements. Your goal is to help users plan launches that build momentum, capture attention, and convert interest into users.
+
+## Core Philosophy
+
+The best companies don't just launch once—they launch again and again. Every new feature, improvement, and update is an opportunity to capture attention and engage your audience.
+
+A strong launch isn't about a single moment. It's about:
+- Getting your product into users' hands early
+- Learning from real feedback
+- Making a splash at every stage
+- Building momentum that compounds over time
+
+---
+
+## The ORB Framework
+
+Structure your launch marketing across three channel types. Everything should ultimately lead back to owned channels.
+
+### Owned Channels
+You own the channel (though not the audience). Direct access without algorithms or platform rules.
+
+**Examples:**
+- Email list
+- Blog
+- Podcast
+- Branded community (Slack, Discord)
+- Website/product
+
+**Why they matter:**
+- Get more effective over time
+- No algorithm changes or pay-to-play
+- Direct relationship with audience
+- Compound value from content
+
+**Start with 1-2 based on audience:**
+- Industry lacks quality content → Start a blog
+- People want direct updates → Focus on email
+- Engagement matters → Build a community
+
+**Example - Superhuman:**
+Built demand through an invite-only waitlist and one-on-one onboarding sessions. Every new user got a 30-minute live demo. This created exclusivity, FOMO, and word-of-mouth—all through owned relationships. Years later, their original onboarding materials still drive engagement.
+
+### Rented Channels
+Platforms that provide visibility but you don't control. Algorithms shift, rules change, pay-to-play increases.
+
+**Examples:**
+- Social media (Twitter/X, LinkedIn, Instagram)
+- App stores and marketplaces
+- YouTube
+- Reddit
+
+**How to use correctly:**
+- Pick 1-2 platforms where your audience is active
+- Use them to drive traffic to owned channels
+- Don't rely on them as your only strategy
+
+**Example - Notion:**
+Hacked virality through Twitter, YouTube, and Reddit where productivity enthusiasts were active. Encouraged community to share templates and workflows. But they funneled all visibility into owned assets—every viral post led to signups, then targeted email onboarding.
+
+**Platform-specific tactics:**
+- Twitter/X: Threads that spark conversation → link to newsletter
+- LinkedIn: High-value posts → lead to gated content or email signup
+- Marketplaces (Shopify, Slack): Optimize listing → drive to site for more
+
+Rented channels give speed, not stability. Capture momentum by bringing users into your owned ecosystem.
+
+### Borrowed Channels
+Tap into someone else's audience to shortcut the hardest part—getting noticed.
+
+**Examples:**
+- Guest content (blog posts, podcast interviews, newsletter features)
+- Collaborations (webinars, co-marketing, social takeovers)
+- Speaking engagements (conferences, panels, virtual summits)
+- Influencer partnerships
+
+**Be proactive, not passive:**
+1. List industry leaders your audience follows
+2. Pitch win-win collaborations
+3. Use tools like SparkToro or Listen Notes to find audience overlap
+4. Set up affiliate/referral incentives
+
+**Example - TRMNL:**
+Sent a free e-ink display to YouTuber Snazzy Labs—not a paid sponsorship, just hoping he'd like it. He created an in-depth review that racked up 500K+ views and drove $500K+ in sales. They also set up an affiliate program for ongoing promotion.
+
+Borrowed channels give instant credibility, but only work if you convert borrowed attention into owned relationships.
+
+---
+
+## Five-Phase Launch Approach
+
+Launching isn't a one-day event. It's a phased process that builds momentum.
+
+### Phase 1: Internal Launch
+Gather initial feedback and iron out major issues before going public.
+
+**Actions:**
+- Recruit early users one-on-one to test for free
+- Collect feedback on usability gaps and missing features
+- Ensure prototype is functional enough to demo (doesn't need to be production-ready)
+
+**Goal:** Validate core functionality with friendly users.
+
+### Phase 2: Alpha Launch
+Put the product in front of external users in a controlled way.
+
+**Actions:**
+- Create landing page with early access signup form
+- Announce the product exists
+- Invite users individually to start testing
+- MVP should be working in production (even if still evolving)
+
+**Goal:** First external validation and initial waitlist building.
+
+### Phase 3: Beta Launch
+Scale up early access while generating external buzz.
+
+**Actions:**
+- Work through early access list (some free, some paid)
+- Start marketing with teasers about problems you solve
+- Recruit friends, investors, and influencers to test and share
+
+**Consider adding:**
+- Coming soon landing page or waitlist
+- "Beta" sticker in dashboard navigation
+- Email invites to early access list
+- Early access toggle in settings for experimental features
+
+**Goal:** Build buzz and refine product with broader feedback.
+
+### Phase 4: Early Access Launch
+Shift from small-scale testing to controlled expansion.
+
+**Actions:**
+- Leak product details: screenshots, feature GIFs, demos
+- Gather quantitative usage data and qualitative feedback
+- Run user research with engaged users (incentivize with credits)
+- Optionally run product/market fit survey to refine messaging
+
+**Expansion options:**
+- Option A: Throttle invites in batches (5-10% at a time)
+- Option B: Invite all users at once under "early access" framing
+
+**Goal:** Validate at scale and prepare for full launch.
+
+### Phase 5: Full Launch
+Open the floodgates.
+
+**Actions:**
+- Open self-serve signups
+- Start charging (if not already)
+- Announce general availability across all channels
+
+**Launch touchpoints:**
+- Customer emails
+- In-app popups and product tours
+- Website banner linking to launch assets
+- "New" sticker in dashboard navigation
+- Blog post announcement
+- Social posts across platforms
+- Product Hunt, BetaList, Hacker News, etc.
+
+**Goal:** Maximum visibility and conversion to paying users.
+
+---
+
+## Product Hunt Launch Strategy
+
+Product Hunt can be powerful for reaching early adopters, but it's not magic—it requires preparation.
+
+### Pros
+- Exposure to tech-savvy early adopter audience
+- Credibility bump (especially if Product of the Day)
+- Potential PR coverage and backlinks
+
+### Cons
+- Very competitive to rank well
+- Short-lived traffic spikes
+- Requires significant pre-launch planning
+
+### How to Launch Successfully
+
+**Before launch day:**
+1. Build relationships with influential supporters, content hubs, and communities
+2. Optimize your listing: compelling tagline, polished visuals, short demo video
+3. Study successful launches to identify what worked
+4. Engage in relevant communities—provide value before pitching
+5. Prepare your team for all-day engagement
+
+**On launch day:**
+1. Treat it as an all-day event
+2. Respond to every comment in real-time
+3. Answer questions and spark discussions
+4. Encourage your existing audience to engage
+5. Direct traffic back to your site to capture signups
+
+**After launch day:**
+1. Follow up with everyone who engaged
+2. Convert Product Hunt traffic into owned relationships (email signups)
+3. Continue momentum with post-launch content
+
+### Case Studies
+
+**SavvyCal** (Scheduling tool):
+- Optimized landing page and onboarding before launch
+- Built relationships with productivity/SaaS influencers in advance
+- Responded to every comment on launch day
+- Result: #2 Product of the Month
+
+**Reform** (Form builder):
+- Studied successful launches and applied insights
+- Crafted clear tagline, polished visuals, demo video
+- Engaged in communities before launch (provided value first)
+- Treated launch as all-day engagement event
+- Directed traffic to capture signups
+- Result: #1 Product of the Day
+
+---
+
+## Post-Launch Product Marketing
+
+Your launch isn't over when the announcement goes live. Now comes adoption and retention work.
+
+### Immediate Post-Launch Actions
+
+**Educate new users:**
+Set up automated onboarding email sequence introducing key features and use cases.
+
+**Reinforce the launch:**
+Include announcement in your weekly/biweekly/monthly roundup email to catch people who missed it.
+
+**Differentiate against competitors:**
+Publish comparison pages highlighting why you're the obvious choice.
+
+**Update web pages:**
+Add dedicated sections about the new feature/product across your site.
+
+**Offer hands-on preview:**
+Create no-code interactive demo (using tools like Navattic) so visitors can explore before signing up.
+
+### Keep Momentum Going
+It's easier to build on existing momentum than start from scratch. Every touchpoint reinforces the launch.
+
+---
+
+## Ongoing Launch Strategy
+
+Don't rely on a single launch event. Regular updates and feature rollouts sustain engagement.
+
+### How to Prioritize What to Announce
+
+Use this matrix to decide how much marketing each update deserves:
+
+**Major updates** (new features, product overhauls):
+- Full campaign across multiple channels
+- Blog post, email campaign, in-app messages, social media
+- Maximize exposure
+
+**Medium updates** (new integrations, UI enhancements):
+- Targeted announcement
+- Email to relevant segments, in-app banner
+- Don't need full fanfare
+
+**Minor updates** (bug fixes, small tweaks):
+- Changelog and release notes
+- Signal that product is improving
+- Don't dominate marketing
+
+### Announcement Tactics
+
+**Space out releases:**
+Instead of shipping everything at once, stagger announcements to maintain momentum.
+
+**Reuse high-performing tactics:**
+If a previous announcement resonated, apply those insights to future updates.
+
+**Keep engaging:**
+Continue using email, social, and in-app messaging to highlight improvements.
+
+**Signal active development:**
+Even small changelog updates remind customers your product is evolving. This builds retention and word-of-mouth—customers feel confident you'll be around.

+
+# Linear Automation via Rube MCP
+
+Automate Linear operations through Composio's Linear toolkit via Rube MCP.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- Rube MCP must be connected (RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS available)
+- Active Linear connection via `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `linear`
+- Always call `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` first to get current tool schemas
+
+## Setup
+
+**Get Rube MCP**: Add `https://rube.app/mcp` as an MCP server in your client configuration. No API keys needed — just add the endpoint and it works.
+
+
+1. Verify Rube MCP is available by confirming `RUBE_SEARCH_TOOLS` responds
+2. Call `RUBE_MANAGE_CONNECTIONS` with toolkit `linear`
+3. If connection is not ACTIVE, follow the returned auth link to complete Linear OAuth
+4. Confirm connection status shows ACTIVE before running any workflows
+
+## Core Workflows
+
+### 1. Manage Issues
+
+**When to use**: User wants to create, search, update, or list Linear issues
+
+**Tool sequence**:
+1. `LINEAR_GET_ALL_LINEAR_TEAMS` - Get team IDs [Prerequisite]
+2. `LINEAR_LIST_LINEAR_STATES` - Get workflow states for a team [Prerequisite]
+3. `LINEAR_CREATE_LINEAR_ISSUE` - Create a new issue [Optional]
+4. `LINEAR_SEARCH_ISSUES` / `LINEAR_LIST_LINEAR_ISSUES` - Find issues [Optional]
+5. `LINEAR_GET_LINEAR_ISSUE` - Get issue details [Optional]
+6. `LINEAR_UPDATE_ISSUE` - Update issue properties [Optional]
+
+**Key parameters**:
+- `team_id`: Team ID (required for creation)
+- `title`: Issue title
+- `description`: Issue description (Markdown supported)
+- `state_id`: Workflow state ID
+- `assignee_id`: Assignee user ID
+- `priority`: 0 (none), 1 (urgent), 2 (high), 3 (medium), 4 (low)
+- `label_ids`: Array of label IDs
+
+**Pitfalls**:
+- Team ID is required when creating issues; use GET_ALL_LINEAR_TEAMS first
+- State IDs are team-specific; use LIST_LINEAR_STATES with the correct team
+- Priority uses integer values 0-4, not string names
+
+### 2. Manage Projects
+
+**When to use**: User wants to create or update Linear projects
+
+**Tool sequence**:
+1. `LINEAR_LIST_LINEAR_PROJECTS` - List existing projects [Optional]
+2. `LINEAR_CREATE_LINEAR_PROJECT` - Create a new project [Optional]
+3. `LINEAR_UPDATE_LINEAR_PROJECT` - Update project details [Optional]
+
+**Key parameters**:
+- `name`: Project name
+- `description`: Project description
+- `team_ids`: Array of team IDs associated with the project
+- `state`: Project state (e.g., 'planned', 'started', 'completed')
+
+**Pitfalls**:
+- Projects span teams; they can be associated with multiple teams
+
+### 3. Manage Cycles
+
+**When to use**: User wants to work with Linear cycles (sprints)
+
+**Tool sequence**:
+1. `LINEAR_GET_ALL_LINEAR_TEAMS` - Get team ID [Prerequisite]
+2. `LINEAR_GET_CYCLES_BY_TEAM_ID` / `LINEAR_LIST_LINEAR_CYCLES` - List cycles [Required]
+
+**Key parameters**:
+- `team_id`: Team ID for cycle operations
+- `number`: Cycle number
+
+**Pitfalls**:
+- Cycles are team-specific; always scope by team_id
+
+### 4. Manage Labels and Comments
+
+**When to use**: User wants to create labels or comment on issues
+
+**Tool sequence**:
+1. `LINEAR_CREATE_LINEAR_LABEL` - Create a new label [Optional]
+2. `LINEAR_CREATE_LINEAR_COMMENT` - Comment on an issue [Optional]
+3. `LINEAR_UPDATE_LINEAR_COMMENT` - Edit a comment [Optional]
+
+**Key parameters**:
+- `name`: Label name
+- `color`: Label color (hex)
+- `issue_id`: Issue ID for comments
+- `body`: Comment body (Markdown)
+
+**Pitfalls**:
+- Labels can be team-scoped or workspace-scoped
+- Comment body supports Markdown formatting
+
+### 5. Custom GraphQL Queries
+
+**When to use**: User needs advanced queries not covered by standard tools
+
+**Tool sequence**:
+1. `LINEAR_RUN_QUERY_OR_MUTATION` - Execute custom GraphQL [Required]
+
+**Key parameters**:
+- `query`: GraphQL query or mutation string
+- `variables`: Variables for the query
+
+**Pitfalls**:
+- Requires knowledge of Linear's GraphQL schema
+- Rate limits apply to GraphQL queries
+
+## Common Patterns
+
+### ID Resolution
+
+**Team name -> Team ID**:
+```
+1. Call LINEAR_GET_ALL_LINEAR_TEAMS
+2. Find team by name in response
+3. Extract id field
+```
+
+**State name -> State ID**:
+```
+1. Call LINEAR_LIST_LINEAR_STATES with team_id
+2. Find state by name
+3. Extract id field
+```
+
+### Pagination
+
+- Linear tools return paginated results
+- Check for pagination cursors in responses
+- Pass cursor to next request for additional pages
+
+## Known Pitfalls
+
+**Team Scoping**:
+- Issues, states, and cycles are team-specific
+- Always resolve team_id before creating issues
+
+**Priority Values**:
+- 0 = No priority, 1 = Urgent, 2 = High, 3 = Medium, 4 = Low
+- Use integer values, not string names
+
