This skill embodies the complete knowledge base of organic viral app growth through social media. It's built from analyzing 100+ successful app launches and growth campaigns that generated billions of views and millions in monthly revenue through TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
Invoke this skill when the user asks about:
Understand the Context: Identify the user's app niche, current stage (pre-launch, launch, growth, plateau), and goals.
Consult References: Read the relevant sections from:

Be Specific and Actionable:
Multiple examples prove inferior products win through better marketing. Volume and execution beat perfection.
50+ accounts posting daily creates a distribution moat that's hard for competitors to replicate. First mover advantage in micro-niches compounds rapidly.
Apps that launch fast, test aggressively, and scale winners dominate. From idea to $20K MRR can happen in 14-60 days with the right playbook.
Solo founders succeed by perfecting a single repeatable format rather than trying everything. Find the 3x performer, then make 30 variations.
Engagement bait through controversy, health concerns, or relationship drama consistently outperforms safe content. Comments drive algorithmic reach.
No dependency on individual creators. Easier to replicate globally and hire offshore editors for volume production.
In UGC networks, 10% of creators drive 90% of views. Focus resources on top performers and replicate their formats.
More accounts → More videos → More views → More touchpoints → Engineered FOMO → Conversions
4-5 accounts × 3-5 posts/day = rapid format testing = faster learning = scale winners quicker

When providing guidance, always anchor recommendations to measurable outcomes:
Cite real benchmarks: "Yope's top ambassador hit 19.16% engagement rate at 40M views" or "Tea went from #500 to #1 in 2 days with one 7.6M view video."

Generate or edit raster images (photos, illustrations, mockups, logos, product shots, game/UI assets, textures, infographics) using Codex's built-in image_gen tool — driven headlessly through `codex exec`. Billed via the user's ChatGPT/Codex login, so it needs NO OpenAI API key. Use whenever the user wants to create a brand-new image from a text prompt, edit an existing local image (background swap, lighting/weather change, object add/remove, restyle), or produce several image variants. Trigger on "generate an image", "make a picture/illustration/logo/mockup of X", "create a hero image", "edit this image", "change the background of X", "turn this photo into Y", "imagegen", "use codex to make an image". Do NOT use for vector/SVG icon systems, diagrams better built in code/HTML/CSS, or when the user explicitly wants the OpenAI Image API directly (that's the gpt-image CLI path).

Master sales coaching skill synthesizing six foundational books — SPIN Selling, Fanatical Prospecting, Gap Selling, The Challenger Sale, Never Split the Difference, and How to Win Friends & Influence People. Use this skill any time the user is drafting outbound emails, cold DMs, follow-up messages, or any sales/prospecting outreach; preparing for or reviewing sales calls, discovery calls, demos, or QBRs; thinking through pricing, objections, negotiations, or closing strategy; planning ICP, messaging, channels, sequencing, or pipeline strategy; coaching reps or being coached; reviewing or rewriting their own sales messaging; even if they don't say "sales," "selling," or name a framework. Trigger on phrases like "cold email", "outreach", "DM", "follow-up", "prospect", "lead", "stalled deal", "objection", "discovery call", "demo", "proposal", "negotiate price", "they ghosted me", "how do I get a meeting", "I'm pitching", "what should I say to", "deal review", "champion", "buying committee", "ICP", "sales pitch", "founder-led sales". Always diagnose the stage of the sales journey first, then apply the right frameworks from the right books — most sales failures come from using a small-sale tactic in a big-sale context, pitching before diagnosing, or arguing instead of asking.

Generate a deep, book-grounded skill for any subject the user wants to master. Researches the canonical books on the topic, downloads them as PDFs (using the bundled `scripts/libgen.py` downloader), reads them in parallel via subagents, then synthesizes the books across each other into a concept-organized knowledge base — not a shelf of book summaries. Output is a tight `SKILL.md` plus per-concept `frameworks/` files (the working knowledge base, organized by idea) plus per-book `references/` deep-dives (the citation layer). Trigger whenever the user says they want to "learn X", "master X", "build a skill for X", "study X", "get smarter at X", "make me a skill on X", "I want to be good at X", "teach me X", "create a coach for X", or asks for help internalizing the canonical thinking on a craft, discipline, methodology, or domain. Don't trigger for "make a skill that does Y" (workflow automation — use /skill-creator). Trigger for "make a skill that helps me think like Y" (knowledge synthesis — that's this skill).
