      "expected_output": "Should check for hvac-marketing-context.md first. Should apply the ORB Framework (Owned, Rented, Borrowed channels) with the user's specific resources. Owned: email list (500 subscribers), website. Rented: Twitter (2k followers). Borrowed: partnerships, communities, Product Hunt. Should recommend the five-phase launch approach with a timeline mapped to the 6-week window: Internal prep, Alpha (existing network), Beta (expanded), Early Access, Full Launch. Should provide specific tactics for each phase. Should recommend building up the audience before launch day. Should include a launch day checklist.",

Should cover: choosing the right day and time, preparing assets (logo, gallery images, maker video), crafting the tagline and description, building a hunter network, activating supporters on launch day, engaging with comments, and post-launch follow-up.

Should identify this as a major feature update. Should recommend appropriate channels and tactics for a feature launch (less than a full product launch but more than a changelog entry). Should include: announcement email, blog post, social media push, in-app notification, and possibly a mini Product Hunt launch. Should provide a feature announcement framework.",

      "expected_output": "Should apply the post-launch product marketing section. Should diagnose potential failure causes: insufficient audience building pre-launch, wrong channels, weak value proposition messaging, poor launch execution, targeting the wrong audience.

Should provide specific borrowed audience tactics: podcast guest appearances, co-marketing with complementary tools, influencer partnerships, community engagement (relevant Slack groups, Discord servers, Reddit), guest posts, cross-promotions.
