What it does
Yalc Orientation is an agent skill from Othmane-Khadri/YALC-the-GTM-operating-system. First-touch onboarding for someone who just opened the YALC repo. Triggers when the user pastes the repo URL https://github.com/Othmane-Khadri/YALC-the-GTM-operating-system (with or without trailing slash, with or without .git), or says any of: 'what is yalc', 'what is this', "let's start", "let's go", 'i just cloned this', 'how do i use this', 'got the repo', 'where do i begin', "i'm new to yalc". Introduces YALC, checks prerequisites, asks the user what they want to do, and routes to the right capability. Hands…
Its SKILL.md is about 1k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.
It sits in Marketing & SEO, covering Go-to-market strategy. It works with Git and GitHub. The repository describes itself as: YALC 1.0, the open-source Clay alternative. MIT, CLI-first, self-hosted, runs in Claude Code. Yalc today is an intelligent orchestration layer that runs pre configured GTM agents…. The licence is MIT.
When your agent uses it
- The user pastes the repo URL https://github.com/Othmane-Khadri/YALC-the-GTM-operating-system (with
- Without trailing slash
- Says any of: what is yalc
- I just cloned this
Example prompts
- “what is yalc”
- “what is this”
- “s start”
- “/yalc-orientation”
Requirements
- Node.js
Workflow steps
4 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.
What it can do on your machine
Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 5686d1f. 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
Shell commands in SKILL.md call:
npxnodenpmpnpm
From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.
Network
Links to these hosts (documentation or services it may open):
nodejs.org
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.
Context cost
Yalc Orientation loads about 1k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 148 tokens; SKILL.md has 494 words of instructions outside code blocks.
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
Auto-check: notes
The automated check noted patterns worth knowing about, such as sudo or a known installer.
- NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:22
3. `~/.gtm-os/.env` is non-empty (`test -s ~/.gtm-os/.env`). - NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:27
- `~/.gtm-os/` missing or `.env` empty → run `yalc-gtm start` to scaffold; the CLI writes the template and opens it for - NoteMentions a .env fileSKILL.md:51
cd ~/Desktop/gtm-os && set -a && source .env.local && set +a && npx tsx src/cli/index.ts <command>
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.

- First-touch onboarding for someone who just opened the YALC repo. Triggers when the user pastes the repo URL `https://github.com/Othmane-Khadri/YALC-the-GTM-operating-system` (with or without trailing slash, with or without `.git`), or says any of: 'what is yalc', 'what is this', "let's start", "let's go", 'i just cloned this', 'how do i use this', 'got the repo', 'where do i begin', "i'm new to yalc". Introduces YALC, checks prerequisites, asks the user what they want to do, and routes to the right capability. Hands off to /setup if the environment isn't initialized.
YALC Orientation
A new user just opened this repo. Walk them through a 4-step orientation so they know what YALC is, that their environment is ready, and which capability fits their first job.
Do NOT duplicate setup logic. If the user needs to install or configure, hand off to the existing /setup skill at .claude/skills/setup/SKILL.md.
Step 1 — Overview
Read CLAUDE.md at the repo root and surface the "What YALC is" section to the user. Quote or paraphrase it — that file is the single source of truth, DO NOT duplicate the text into this skill body. Keep the intro to 3–5 sentences. End with one sentence framing the architecture split: "Read context from your knowledge base, execute from this repo."
Step 2 — Prerequisite check
Run these checks silently and report only what's missing. If everything passes, say "environment looks good" and continue.
- Node ≥ 20 (
node --version). ~/.gtm-os/exists (test -d ~/.gtm-os).~/.gtm-os/.envis non-empty (test -s ~/.gtm-os/.env).yalc-gtmis resolvable on PATH (which yalc-gtm).
For each failure, surface the specific fix from CLAUDE.md "Common stuck states":
yalc-gtmnot on PATH →npm i -g yalc-gtm-os(orpnpm link --globalfrom the repo root if hacking on YALC itself).~/.gtm-os/missing or.envempty → runyalc-gtm startto scaffold; the CLI writes the template and opens it for editing.- Localhost won't open → confirm
yalc-gtm startexited cleanly, copy the URL from the terminal banner, check port 3847 isn't taken (lsof -i :3847). - Node < 20 → upgrade via nodejs.org.
If ~/.gtm-os/ is not initialized, route to /setup immediately regardless of what the user says next. The /setup skill owns install + scaffold + key entry + capture + preview + commit + doctor + framework recommendation. Don't reimplement any of it here.

Step 3 — Intent question
Once prerequisites pass, ask the user this exact question with 4 multi-choice options:
What would you like to do first?
(a) Qualify leads — score a CSV/JSON list against your ICP using the 7-gate pipeline. (b) Launch a LinkedIn campaign — multi-step outreach with A/B variants. (c) Scrape a LinkedIn post for engagers — pull likers/commenters into a lead list. (d) Show me everything / I'm exploring — guided tour of every command.
Wait for the answer. Don't assume.
Step 4 — Route
Based on the user's choice, route to the matching CLI command. Use the invocation pattern:
cd ~/Desktop/gtm-os && set -a && source .env.local && set +a && npx tsx src/cli/index.ts <command>| Choice | Route to |
|---|---|
| (a) Qualify leads | `leads:import --source <csv |
| (b) Launch a LinkedIn campaign | campaign:create --title <t> --hypothesis <h>. Ask for title and hypothesis. |
| (c) Scrape a LinkedIn post | leads:scrape-post --url <linkedin-url>. Ask for the post URL. |
| (d) Show me everything | Run yalc-gtm --help, then offer a guided tour of the major command families (leads:*, campaign:*, email:*, orchestrate). |
Hard guard: if at any point during routing you discover ~/.gtm-os/ is not initialized (e.g., a command errors with a missing-config message), stop the routed flow and hand off to /setup first. Resume the original intent after setup completes.
