Traction Viral Engineering

What it does

When your agent uses it

• Designing referral loops
• Viral coefficients
• Engineered acquisition tools
• Product-led assets that acquire customers

Example prompts

• “/traction-viral-engineering”

Requirements

• Compatibility (from SKILL.md): Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

1. 1Choose loop or tool.
2. 2Define the target user and the moment of motivation.
3. 3Map each step from exposure to signup to share or lead capture.
4. 4Identify the weakest step.
5. 5Design small tests to improve that step.
6. 6Measure coefficient, cycle time, conversion quality, and follow-up value.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 9e7b281. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

• Tool permissions

  Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

  From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

• Runs code

  No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

  From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

• Network

  No URLs in SKILL.md.

  From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

• Credentials

  Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

  From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

• Compatibility

  Codex, Claude Code, and other Agent Skills-compatible clients.

  From compatibility in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

Context cost

Traction Viral Engineering loads about 662 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 102 tokens; SKILL.md has 211 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it

~102

When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches

~662

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

description

Plan viral marketing and engineering-as-marketing traction experiments from Traction. Use when designing referral loops, viral coefficients, engineered acquisition tools, calculators, microsites, widgets, or product-led assets that acquire customers; use make-product-viral instead for landing-page audits, shareability reviews, pricing-page polish, or social-preview optimization.
