The file
We split this skill into the rules it gives an agent
7 rules. About 0 are common, 2 are distinctive, and 5 are very specific to this project.
≈0
Common · estimate
Many files like this have a rule of this kind.
≈2
Distinctive · estimate
This author's own choices. Worth a look.
5
Very specific
Tied to their project's names, files or tools. Probably skip.
- Common
- Distinctive
- Very specific
- Distinctive: line 13
Prefer read-only tools first.
- Very specific: line 27
Read get_launch_gate_policy — if Plan QA fails and policy blocks, stop.
- Very specific: line 28
Run run_launch_preflight (tracking + landing) at plan time.
- Very specific: line 29
Run skill campaign-preflight (geo, exclusions, structure validators).
- Very specific: line 32
Only then call enable_campaign / execute plan.
- Very specific: line 36
Prefer pause-only automation (pause_campaign) over auto-enable.
- Distinctive: line 38
If anything in the gate fails, fix and re-run — do not “force live.”
≈ “Common” is an estimate: at least 1 in 5 of the 350,495 skill files we read have a rule of the same kind, not the same words. “Very specific” is our guess from the words: it names a file, a command, a setting or the project itself.

Launch Gates (Synter MCP)
Hard gate before spend. Default posture: paused until a human approves.
Prerequisites
- Complete
synter-mcp-setup(Synter MCP connected + OAuth’d accounts). - Prefer read-only tools first; every write/publish is approve ≠ activate.
- Hosted path: syntermedia.ai — Solo / Scale / Crucible Managed (never a Free cloud tier).
Core MCP tools
| Job | Tool |
| Read gate policy | get_launch_gate_policy |
| Plan-time checks | run_launch_preflight |
| Guardrails | list_campaign_guardrails, set_campaign_guardrail, disable_campaign_guardrail |
| Enable (gated) | enable_campaign — only after human approve |
Gate checklist (blocking)
- Read
get_launch_gate_policy— if Plan QA fails and policy blocks, stop. - Run
run_launch_preflight(tracking + landing) at plan time. - Run skill
campaign-preflight(geo, exclusions, structure validators). - Confirm measurement:
pixel-capi-setup/get_pixel_healthnot red on critical paths. - Present approve card — approve ≠ activate.
- Only then call
enable_campaign/ execute plan.
Defaults
- Prefer pause-only automation (
pause_campaign) over auto-enable. - Budget increases follow
kill-scale-rulesstep limits. - If anything in the gate fails, fix and re-run — do not “force live.”
