Public Launch Checklist

A complete list of operational and promotional gates to successfully deploy and publicize multimodel-dev-os to the global developer ecosystem.

1. GitHub Launch Checklist

Ensure the repository is clean, communicative, and ready for public forks/stars:

[ ] Community Standards Audit: Confirm root files LICENSE (MIT), CONTRIBUTING.md, CODE_OF_CONDUCT.md, and SECURITY.md are present and correctly formatted.
[ ] GitHub Workflows Pass: Validate that the .github/workflows/verify.yml actions run successfully on push events.
[ ] Community Engagement CTAs: Confirm standard issue templates exist inside .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ to guide bug reporting and feature additions.

Assure packaging hygiene before executing npm publishes:

[ ] Technical Structure Verify: Run the cross-platform structural verifier:
bash
```
npm run verify
```
Ensure all 102 target assertions return successful passes.
[ ] Dynamic Manifest Sync: Assert that the dynamic version in package.json matches exactly across the CHANGELOG.md and installer scripts.
[ ] NPM Pack Audit: Run the packaging dry-run:
bash
```
npm pack --dry-run
```
Confirm that the output tarball size is under ~65kB, the unpacked file size is under ~200kB, and compiled docs caches (docs/.vitepress/dist, docs/.vitepress/cache) are completely ignored.

Verify documentation site integrity before public indexing:

[ ] VitePress Compile: Run npm run docs:build and confirm that Rollup completes client and server bundle compilation successfully.
[ ] Asset Resolution: Verify that all SVGs (terminal-demo, social-preview, architecture-preview) compile seamlessly and display correctly inside docs pages.
[ ] Pages Navigation: Click all navigation sidebars, navbar tabs, and footer links under the hosted root /multimodel-dev-os/ path to confirm zero broken links.

Prepare the phase-by-phase promotional campaigns to maximize engagement:

[ ] Product Hunt Staging: Prepare high-end media cards (social-preview.svg) and draft the first-comment outline explaining our zero-dependency context layer.
[ ] Hacker News Submission: Format the direct developer pitch under a clean Show HN title: Show HN: MultiModel Dev OS — A portable .editorconfig for your AI coding agents.
[ ] Reddit Outreach: Select relevant communities (/r/webdev, /r/node, /r/LocalLLaMA) and schedule clear announcements addressing instruction drift.
