インストールする前に、エージェントに与えられる指示の中身を確認できます。
Read bootstrap context before asking questions: strategy/brand.md for brand, audience, offer, channels, tools, constraints, and metrics; about/me.md for personal voice; content/ideas.md and content/calendar.md for content planning. Use legacy product-marketing context files only as fallback. Save generated drafts to content/<platform>/drafts/YYYY-MM-DD_short-topic-slug.md, and route durable learnings back to strategy/brand.md, about/me.md, or content/ideas.md.
This skill is self-contained for its frontmatter scope: use its local instructions, references, scripts, and assets as the playbook; ask only for missing task-specific inputs; hand off to adjacent skills instead of expanding scope; and return an actionable artifact, decision, plan, draft, or diagnostic.
Optimize your Product Hunt launch with research and visuals.

Hey Product Hunt!
DataFlow turns raw SQL queries into visual dashboards in seconds.
As a data engineer, I was frustrated spending more time formatting
reports than actually analyzing data. Every BI tool I tried required
a PhD in their configuration. So I built DataFlow — paste your SQL,
get a dashboard.
It auto-detects chart types, handles large datasets, and exports
to PDF/PNG with one click.
We're offering 50% off the first year for PH users. Would love
your feedback — what reporting pain points do you have?
