launch-post
Write a developer-audience launch post — Show HN, a Product Hunt blurb, a 'we shipped X' dev blog intro, or a launch tweet thread. Use when launching a tool, library, API, or open-source project to a technical audience. Produces a credible, hype-free post that leads with what it does and why it's different, plus title options and a comment-ready first reply.

# Launch Post Skill
Developers smell marketing from a mile away. A launch post that lands with them is concrete, honest about
trade-offs, and leads with *what it does and why you built it* — not adjectives. This skill writes that post
(Show HN, Product Hunt, dev blog, or a tweet thread), tuned to the channel, with title options and a strong
first comment to seed the discussion.
## Required Inputs
Ask for these only if they aren't already provided:
- **What you built** — the tool/library/API, in one plain sentence.
- **The problem & why now** — what was painful before; why you made it.
- **What's different** — how it compares to the obvious alternatives (honestly).
