Currently filmingThe writeup (what was copied)
2026-08-19 to 2026-09-02Plan published before the result. That is the rule. If the tape later disagrees with this page, the page was wrong, not the ledger.
What I am copying
Marc Lou launch week. One product, one audience, one week of showing the work on X, Product Hunt, and a short skit. He did not wait for 10k followers. Year one was 680. That is the same number on this masthead.
Window
14 days. Start 19 Aug 2026. End 2 Sep 2026. If nothing sold, the row stays $0 with a source. Zeros are allowed. Fake screenshots are not.
The steps (v0)
1. Publish this plan. 2. Ship the smallest thing with a buy button. This tape is a launch week, not a distribution-only week, so Slap Post is not the CTA. 3. Post the build in public every day of the window. 4. Product Hunt on a weekday. 5. Write the Clone File from what actually happened, not from the plan.
What this is not
Not a vibe-coding course. Not a last-chance clock. Not a Marc Lou interview. I run his process. I keep the body count.
Diary.

Clone File v0
Steal the checklist.
One page from the tape. Ugly is fine. Rewritten from what actually happened, not from the plan.
