Completes the two-kit ladder for launch; merge when etrebels/claude-code-startup-os is public so the link resolves. https://claude.ai/code/session_01DiNeRMrqXT87FECW6DgZZA --- CHANGELOG.md | 4 +++- README.md | 2 ++ 2 files changed, 5 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/CHANGELOG.md b/CHANGELOG.md index 19227d7..898aca6 100644 --- a/CHANGELOG.md +++ b/CHANGELOG.md @@ -7,7 +7,9 @@ and this project adheres to [Semantic Versioning](https://semver.org/spec/v2.0.0 ## [Unreleased] -_Nothing yet — next changes land here._ +### Added + +- README cross-link to the sibling kit, [Claude Code Startup OS](https://github.com/etrebels/claude-code-startup-os) — the founder's stage before a repeatable motion (searching), where this kit runs the motion itself (scaling). ## [0.2.0] — 2026-06-10 diff --git a/README.md b/README.md index 14424b0..e95348d 100644 --- a/README.md +++ b/README.md @@ -14,6 +14,8 @@ Most sales & marketing skill packs just generate copy.

Running marketing, sales, product, and retention as four separate systems is what creates the seams the buyer feels — and leaves the most valuable half, what happens *after* the sale, with no owner. This kit keeps all four in one place: one source of truth (the repo), two feedback loops (a `MARKETING-ACTION` line for sales→marketing, a `RETENTION-RISK` line for post-sale→product), shared definitions. The one-page argument, with sources, is in [`docs/why-align.md`](docs/why-align.md). ## See it run in 30 seconds
