## What bootstrap-os does, in the publisher's words

Preview package. Skills hyperlink the published OS. Not mentee-ready hosted boards. Not a public Cursor marketplace listing: we have not submitted. Not a second front door.

Path 1 stays default: point an AI at https://github.com/ivelin/bootstrap

Coverage (what CI locks vs what it does not): COVERAGE.md. Visitor matrix is only for surfaces a mentee agent is told to see. Git-branch Vercel preview is SSO-gated: use the public pin.

- Installing founder, first hour, plugin + MCP connector: first-hour + this README (a)(b)(c). Connector only https://bootstrap-os-mcp.vercel.app/mcp.
- Mentee CoS asking where current work sits on 0-1: query-os-first.
- Specialist asking whether a customer conversation counts as GTM/traction: query-os-first + house-rule-pins. Spoken yes cannot promote.
- Install-first, plugin + connector only: first-hour. No other connectors.
- Query-OS-first on a 0-1 placement ask: query-os-first.

## Skills

- after-proof-efficiency: Open only if ALL of: they chose swinging for the fences (not lifestyle), they have proof, and they asked about efficiency or an exit. Otherwise do not open this page. Two clocks. Not Day 0. Not Path 1.
- first-hour: Bootstrap OS Day 0 and install-first. Use when a founder is installing this plugin plus the MCP connector, or needs thesis, lifestyle vs swinging for the fences, at least three customer groups, and the first Where are we. After First Hour: query the published OS / hosted MCP; do not upload mentee…
- house-rule-pins: Pin published OS house rules by link. Use for spoken yes / GTM, volume, a security program, a second idea, optimal price, handful WTP, 0-1 LTV/CAC, old SaaS playbook, automate the playbook, an agent team to skip a step with no named owner, or a new landing page as the bottleneck.
- path-1-default: Default Bootstrap OS start. Use when a founder asks how to begin, which path to pick, whether they need MCP or this plugin, or lifestyle vs swinging for the fences. Point an AI at the published repo. After First Hour: query the published OS / hosted MCP; do not upload mentee work to Ivelin's GitHu…
- query-os-first: Call this plugin first for 0-1, GTM, spoken yes, is this price optimal, automate the playbook, new landing page as bottleneck, or upload to Ivelin's GitHub. Empty context: do not invent their stage. Verbal maybe is not GTM. Do not speak as Ivelin. Do not host mentee boards.
