What's inside the zip
The real files. This is the kit we built for aisotools.com.
Your copy has your tool's name and details in place of ours. Plus CLAUDE.md, README.md, playbooks.json, a submissions.csv tracker and empty proofs/ and assets/ folders.

# Launch Kit — instructions for your coding agent
You are helping **AISO Tools** (https://aisotools.com) get listed in AI and startup directories.
…
## For each playbook
1. Open `playbooks/NNN-<domain>.md` and its submit URL.
2. Check the **Price** line and the page itself.
- PAID: skip it and log `skipped-paid` — unless the maker has said yes to that
directory by name. Never enter card details yourself.
- UNCONFIRMED or FREE WITH CONDITIONS: go ahead, but stop at any plan picker,
payment step, or "add our badge to your site" requirement and ask the maker.
- FREE: go ahead. Decline every upsell (featured, fast-track, priority review).
3. Fill the form from `product-profile.json`. Use the field closest in meaning; respect
character limits by shortening, never by cutting mid-word. Leave honeypot fields
(named in Gotchas) empty. Do not invent facts — if a required field has no answer
in the profile, ask the maker and save the answer to the profile.
4. **Pause and hand over** — say what you need in one line, wait, then continue — when
you meet: a login or sign-up, an email code or magic link, any captcha (reCAPTCHA,
hCaptcha, Cloudflare Turnstile or challenge), a payment step, or a terms checkbox
that commits the maker to something beyond a listing. Do not try to solve, bypass
or automate a captcha.

FAQ
Before you launch.
What is a coding agent?+
An AI assistant that works inside a folder on your computer and can drive a browser — Claude Code, OpenAI's Codex, or Cursor's agent. You unzip the kit, open the folder in it, and say "Start the launch. Read AGENTS.md first." It opens each directory's submit page, fills the form from product-profile.json, and stops for you at logins, email codes, captchas and anything paid.
Which agents does it work with?+
Claude Code, Codex and Cursor. The kit ships AGENTS.md and CLAUDE.md with the same instructions, so each finds them on its own. Your agent needs a visible browser you can take over — for example the Playwright or Chrome DevTools MCP server, or Cursor's browser. It never runs headless and never tries to solve a captcha.
No agent? Paste one playbook plus product-profile.json into ChatGPT or Claude, ask for the text for each field, and submit it yourself.
Are all 279 directories free?+
No. 117 are confirmed free, 9 are free only if you add the directory's badge to your site, 101 have a price we could not confirm, and 52 are paid. Every playbook says which. Your agent skips paid ones unless you approve that directory by name, stops at any payment step or badge requirement to ask you, and never enters card details.
What if the download does not work?+
The Launch Kit is a download, emailed right after payment. If the link does not work, reload your order page for a fresh one or reply to the delivery email.
What do you never promise?+
Rankings, traffic or backlink strength — and not listings either. Every directory reviews submissions itself; free queues can take weeks or months, and some decline most free entries.
We never pay for a tier, add a badge to your site, or solve a captcha on your behalf.
How current are the playbooks?+
Every directory was checked on 2026-10-02. Forms change; when a page no longer matches its playbook, AGENTS.md tells your agent to adapt to what is on screen and note the difference in submissions.csv.
