# Community Launch Runner

Executes the community and directory lane of a launch — per-platform submission packages (Product Hunt, Show HN, subreddits, tiered directories, regional channels including Chinese communities) built under each platform's published rules. In the RAMP loop this is a Mobilize-phase execution skill: it feeds the **M** (Momentum) sub-items *channel mix fits tier & use-case* and *platform-rule compliance per channel*, and it is the execution surface the **M1** veto (platform manipulation / policy) judges — [launch-readiness-auditor](../launch-readiness-auditor/SKILL.md) scores that; this skill never computes the RAMP profile result. It works one lever — community submission execution — and hands off.

**Scope guard**: this skill prepares community/directory submissions only. It does not run paid amplification, creator campaigns, media relations, the launch-day runbook, telemetry, or canonical launch state. T-0 observations become authorized idempotent launch proposals through `registry-events.py`; [launch-registry](../../../protocol/launch-registry/SKILL.md) resolves them. Ongoing community presence/warmup belongs to the social discipline.

## Quick Start

```
Prepare a Product Hunt + Show HN submission package for [product]. Launch date: [date]. Audience: [who].
```

```
Build the community launch plan for [product] — subreddits, directories, and Chinese channels. Region: [global / CN / both].
```

```
Check my submission drafts against each platform's rules before T-0 — here are the drafts and the channel list.
```

## Skill Contract

**Expected output**: per-platform submission packages (Product Hunt tagline / gallery / first-comment skeleton, factual Show HN title + text, per-subreddit posts with a self-promotion rules table, tiered directory waves, regional-channel posts), a red-line check across the whole plan, T-0 submission-status lines routed to the registry proposal protocol, and the standard handoff summary.

- **Reads**: the launch dossier facts; the current frozen manifest version/hash and matching SHIP verdict; the message house and per-channel asset kit; target platforms, region, and audience; each platform's current official rules; and early launch-window telemetry.
- **Writes**: submission packages + a reusable summary to `memory/launch/community-launch-runner/` (its WARM path, after permission); dated T-0 submission-status lines submitted as proposal events to `memory/events/launches.ndjson` via an authorized `operation: propose` request to `registry-events.py` (the hot path — [launch-registry](../../../protocol/launch-registry/SKILL.md) resolves each proposal individually in offset order; this skill never writes the dossier or calendar directly). It does not write HOT automatically.
- **Done when**: every selected platform has a complete package bound to the current manifest hash and current official rules; the red-line check passes; every attempted submission has its own action intent and provider/URL receipt; and missing/partial/unknown receipts remain open rather than being labeled submitted/live.
- **Primary next skill**: [launch-monitor](../../prove/launch-monitor/SKILL.md) — the T-0→T+30 telemetry read of what these submissions produce.

### Handoff Summary

## Data Sources

Platform rules come from each platform's published documentation via WebFetch — the Product Hunt official submission docs, the official Show HN guidelines, each subreddit's rules page, each directory's submission page — all re-checked at submission time (specs change; never trust a cached limit). Launch-window telemetry uses the keyless/free-key connectors: `scripts/connectors/hn.py` (Algolia
