<b>The Community Launch-Day Runbook</b>
Launch day chaos comes from undefined roles, not low effort. Assign every job before doors open.

☐ T-minus 1 day: seed 5 starter threads so day one isn't empty
☐ Hour 0: "greeter" reacts to every intro within 10 minutes
☐ Hour 0: "firefighter" watches for spam and broken links only
☐ Hour 2: pin the rules + the first ritual date
☐ Hour 6: "recap host" posts "who joined today" highlight
☐ Day 1 close: log join count and activation rate as baseline

The rule: one named human per role, no overlap, no "we'll figure it out." An empty community on day one signals dead; the seeded threads and fast greeting prevent that first-impression death. Capture day-one numbers as the baseline you'll measure every loop against.

Save this for your next launch.
