Awesome Indie Platform Help
Helps the user submit to, optimize listings on, and get the most from Awesome Indie — a curated directory for indie products, micro-startups, and side projects.
Step 1 — Gather context
If references/learnings.md exists, read it first for accumulated knowledge.
Ask the user:
-
What do you need help with?
- A) Submitting a product to Awesome Indie
- B) Optimizing an existing listing
- C) Understanding if Awesome Indie is worth submitting to
- D) Comparing Awesome Indie with other directories
- E) Something else — describe it
-
What's your product?
- A) SaaS / software tool
- B) Mobile app
- C) API / developer tool
- D) No-code / low-code tool
- E) Something else
-
Have you submitted to other startup directories already?
- A) Yes — which ones?
- B) No — this is my first
- C) Planning a multi-directory launch
If the user's request already provides most of this context, skip directly to the relevant step. Lead with your best-effort answer using reasonable assumptions (stated explicitly), then ask only the most critical 1-2 clarifying questions at the end.
Step 2 — Route or answer directly
If the request maps to a different skill, route:
- Multi-directory launch strategy →
/sales-launch-directory
- Product Hunt launch →
/sales-producthunt
- Email marketing to subscribers →
/sales-email-marketing
- Landing page optimization →
/sales-checkout
- Audience growth strategy →
/sales-audience-growth
- Other specific directory platforms → hand off to that platform's skill
Otherwise, answer directly from the Awesome Indie reference below.
