# Gingiris Growth Finder > You know you need growth but you don't know which playbook fits your situation. SaaS? Mobile? Open source? Pre-PMF? Scaling? Tell this skill your product type and stage — it diagnoses your problem and routes you to the right specialist playbook. What's inside: • Product type detection (SaaS / mobile app / open source / dev tool / marketplace) • Growth stage diagnosis (pre-PMF / cold start / scaling / plateau) • Channel-fit matching (which channels work for YOUR product at YOUR stage) • Specific section routing (jumps to the exact chapter you need) Built from: Meta-router across the full Gingiris playbook series — 13 specialized growth skills covering every product type and stage. Triggers: "how to grow" | "how to launch" | "growth strategy" | "go to market" | "GTM" | "launch plan" | "growth playbook" | "marketing strategy" | "product launch" | "Product Hunt" | "GitHub stars" | "open source launch" | "B2B growth" | "SaaS growth" | "PLG" | "PMF" | "ASO" | "app cold start" | "user acquisition" | "customer acquis - Skill: `gingiris-1031/gingiris-growth-finder-2` (Agent Skill, multi-file: 4 files) - Install (CLI): `npx skillmds@latest add gingiris-1031/gingiris-growth-finder-2` - Raw SKILL.md: https://api.skillmd.com/api/skills/gingiris-1031/gingiris-growth-finder-2/raw - Safety review: pending - Works with: Claude Code, Claude.ai, OpenAI Codex - Category: Marketing & Growth - Author: gingiris-1031 (https://skillmd.com/u/gingiris-1031) - Updated: 2026-09-22 - Page: https://skillmd.com/skills/gingiris-1031/gingiris-growth-finder-2 --- ## 📦 Install ```bash npx skills add Gingiris-1031/gingiris-growth-finder ``` **What you get after installing:** - Auto-diagnosis of your growth stage - Routes to the right playbook - Covers all channels and stages --- # Gingiris Growth Finder > 🌍 **Language / 语言**: [中文](#中文版) | [English](references/en/README.md) | [日本語](references/ja/README.md) | [한국어](references/ko/README.md) **The meta-skill that picks the right Gingiris playbook for your growth problem.** Growth questions look similar but require wildly different playbooks. "How do I launch?" for a dev tool is nothing like "How do I launch?" for a mobile app. "How do I grow?" at $1M ARR is nothing like "How do I grow?" at 100 DAU. This skill diagnoses the situation and invokes the specialist. --- ## How to use Just ask your growth question naturally. Example prompts: - "I'm launching my AI SaaS next week — what should I prioritize?" - "My open source project has 2k stars, how do I get to 10k?" - "I have a B2B SaaS at $300k ARR, should I hire SDRs?" - "My iOS app isn't ranking for its main keyword, what do I do?" The skill will diagnose three dimensions, then invoke the matching playbook: 1. **Product type** — SaaS / open source / mobile app / consumer web / marketplace / dev tool 2. **Growth stage** — pre-launch / launch / post-launch cold start / growth / scale 3. **Primary channel gap** — content / community / paid / partnerships / product-led --- ## Diagnostic routing logic | If the user's question is about... | Route to | |---|---| | Product Hunt launch, hunter outreach, launch-day tactics, viral moment engineering | **[gingiris-launch](https://huggingface.co/Gingiris/gingiris-launch)** | | GitHub stars, HackerNews, OSS marketing, developer community, awesome-lists, Show HN | **[gingiris-opensource](https://huggingface.co/Gingiris/gingiris-opensource)** | | B2B SaaS, PLG vs SLG, PMF validation, freemium, enterprise motion, affiliate, channel partnerships | **[gingiris-b2b-growth](https://huggingface.co/Gingiris/gingiris-b2b-growth)** | | ASO, App Store / Google Play, mobile user acquisition, TikTok/Reels/Shorts UGC, creator matrix | **[gingiris-aso-growth](https://huggingface.co/Gingiris/gingiris-aso-growth)** | If the question spans multiple domains (e.g. "I have an open source project that I want to monetize as B2B SaaS"), route to **both** relevant skills and explain the handoff. --- ## Decision framework (for the agent) When the user asks a growth question, run this quick triage **before** invoking a specialist skill: ### Step 1 — Classify the product Ask or infer: - What is it? (SaaS web app / mobile app / OSS project / marketplace / browser extension) - Who's the ICP? (individual developer / SMB / enterprise / consumer) - Distribution default? (self-serve web signup / app store / GitHub / sales-led) ### Step 2 — Identify the stage - **Pre-launch** — building, no users yet - **Launch** — within 30 days of public release - **Cold start** — launched but <100 WAU/DAU, <1k signups - **Growth** — steady signal, scaling what works - **Scale** — $1M+ ARR or 10k+ DAU, needs systems ### Step 3 — Spot the gap Listen for the *actual* bottleneck, not the stated question: - "I'm not getting signups" → distribution channel gap - "I'm getting signups but no conversions" → product/pricing gap (not growth — redirect) - "I have users but no growth loop" → retention/virality gap - "I have a growth loop but can't scale ads" → monetization gap ### Step 4 — Route Invoke the specialist skill. Examples: ``` User: "I have a dev tool CLI with 500 GitHub stars. How do I get to 5k?" → Diagnosis: OSS project, growth stage, distribution gap → Invoke: gingiris-opensource → Context hint: focus on GitHub trending + HN relaunch + awesome-lists User: "My iOS photo app has 80 DAU after 2 months. What's wrong?" → Diagnosis: mobile app, cold-start stage, distribution+UGC gap → Invoke: gingiris-aso-growth → Context hint: focus on ASO audit first, then TikTok creator matrix User: "I'm launching an AI coding assistant on Product Hunt in 3 weeks." → Diagnosis: dev tool, pre-launch, launch-day engineering needed → Invoke: gingiris-launch → Context hint: 3-week timeline → hunter network + pre-launch email list ``` --- ## Complementary install If the routed specialist skill isn't installed yet, suggest the user install it: ```bash npx skills add Gingiris/gingiris-launch # for Product Hunt / launch npx skills add Gingiris/gingiris-opensource # for OSS / GitHub stars npx skills add Gingiris/gingiris-b2b-growth # for B2B SaaS / PLG npx skills add Gingiris/gingiris-aso-growth # for mobile / ASO ``` Or install all four at once: ```bash npx skills add Gingiris/gingiris-launch -g npx skills add Gingiris/gingiris-opensource -g npx skills add Gingiris/gingiris-b2b-growth -g npx skills add Gingiris/gingiris-aso-growth -g ``` --- ## What this skill does *not* do - **Product/pricing advice** — if the bottleneck is product fit or pricing, say so explicitly and redirect to a product strategist (this skill only routes growth questions) - **Paid ads tactical execution** — covered at a high level in gingiris-b2b-growth and gingiris-aso-growth, but not the primary focus - **Fundraising / pitch deck** — out of scope --- ## About Gingiris Gingiris is Iris Wei's growth consulting practice, built on: - 6 years as cofounder/COO of AFFiNE (60k+ GitHub stars) - 30x #1 on Product Hunt (Manus, Devin, AFFiNE, and others) - 150+ AI startups advised on global go-to-market All four specialist playbooks are open source on GitHub under [github.com/Gingiris-1031](https://github.com/Gingiris-1031) and available as Claude Skills on [huggingface.co/Gingiris](https://huggingface.co/Gingiris). --- *Version 1.2.0 — Released 2026-06-02* --- ## 🔗 About the Author **Iris Wei** — Growth consultant for 150+ AI startups.
