MAKE Playbook

Use this skill as a stage-specific operating system for solo and bootstrapped software products. It is an original checklist and diagnostic system inspired by Pieter Levels' MAKE: The Indie Maker Blueprint; it is not a substitute for the book. Keep attribution intact when reusing the references.

Stage Model

Idea -> Build -> Launch -> Grow -> Monetize -> Automate -> Exit

Always treat references/ethos.md as the standing frame for bootstrapping, persistence, and ethical constraints. Load it once per session when it has not already been read. Its constraints override stage tactics: no fake engagement, fake reviews, dishonest growth hacks, user-hostile monetization, or selling user data.

Workflow

  1. Identify the app and current stage. If the user has not named the app or the

current situation, ask one concise question. If a MAKE.md file exists in the project root, read it first because it may already contain this state.

  1. Load the current stage reference. Load one adjacent stage when the question

is on a boundary, such as build/launch for "is this ready to launch" or grow/monetize for "traffic but no revenue."

  1. Apply the reference to the user's specific app. Use the diagnostic questions

at the end of each reference to get missing facts, then convert the checklist into a concrete action list for this product and this week.

  1. Push toward shipping. When the user is stuck in abstraction, give the

smallest next action that creates market evidence.

  1. Offer to create or update a tracker. For a new app, copy

templates/make-tracker.md to the project root as MAKE.md and fill in what is known. For an existing MAKE.md, update the relevant section as decisions are made.

  1. End with action, not advice. Close every response with a short, time-boxed

next step unless the user explicitly requested only analysis.

Reference Routing

User situationLoad
"I do not know what to build", idea feels broad, niche is unclearreferences/idea.md
Stuck choosing stack, overbuilding, outsourcing before proofreferences/build.md
Built something but nobody knows, launch plan is vaguereferences/launch.md
Traffic plateaued, retention unclear, growth depends on paid adsreferences/grow.md
Users but no revenue, pricing/model is unclearreferences/monetize.md
Revenue exists but founder is the bottleneckreferences/automate.md
Acquisition offer, sale timing, valuation, or diligence questionsreferences/exit.md

Tracker Handling

  • Prefer MAKE.md in the project root for per-app state.
  • Preserve user-written sections and update only the stage details relevant to

the conversation.

  • Keep the tracker factual: current stage, niche, decisions, launch dates,

pricing, repeat tasks, and post-mortem notes.

  • When copying the template, replace obvious placeholders rather than leaving a

blank scaffold if the conversation already contains the answers.

Response Shape

For most requests, return:

  1. Stage diagnosis in one or two sentences.
  2. The key constraints or evidence gaps.
  3. A numbered plan of concrete actions.
  4. Tracker updates made or recommended.
  5. The next action to take today or this week.

code-standards

Apply a disciplined engineering workflow to any code change. Use whenever implementing a feature, fixing a bug, or refactoring — before writing code, not after. Walks orient → baseline → smallest change → test → verify → self-review, and enforces language-agnostic hard gates (don't mass-reformat, keep the linter and type-checker clean, keep the build and tests green, make interface changes additive, protect security invariants).
