## Capabilities

- Selects three to five ideas based on product, audience, stage, budget, team size, and timeline.
- Draws recommendations from a catalog of 139 tactics across 17 marketing categories.
- Explains why each idea fits, how to begin, expected outcomes, and required resources.
- Prioritizes tactics for fast leads, authority, low-budget growth, product-led growth, and enterprise sales.
- Routes detailed channel execution to related specialist skills when appropriate.

## Use Cases

- Build category authority: Identify research, content, speaking, and media ideas that strengthen recognition in a specialized market.

```

## Limitations

- Provides strategic recommendations, not automatic campaign execution or performance measurement.
- Relies on user-provided context and optional local product marketing documents.
- Does not verify current channel costs, platform policies, legal requirements, or market conditions.
- Detailed referral, email, advertising, and SEO implementation may require related specialist skills.

## Best Practices

- Provide product, audience, stage, budget, team size, timeline, and one measurable growth goal.
- Request three to five ideas when you need depth, prioritization, and concrete starting steps.
- Share previous results so recommendations can avoid failed tactics and build on proven channels.

## Anti Patterns

- Do not request a large unfiltered list when resources or goals are unclear.
- Do not treat expected outcomes as forecasts without validating assumptions through small tests.
- Do not use the catalog as legal, privacy, platform-policy, or compliance guidance.

## Security Audit

- Audited at: 2026-07-13T18:25:00.831\+00:00
- Summary: All ten static findings are false positives. Nine entries describe paid marketing or numbered idea ranges, while the remaining entry uses Markdown backticks around filenames rather than shell execution. The catalog separately recommends cross-company remarketing audience sharing without consent, policy, or governance safeguards.
