Helps you choose the next open-source product to build for personal brand growth by enforcing constraints, validating competitive saturation, checking platform obsolescence risk, and committing to a buildable spec.
Use oss-product-selection when you are deciding which OSS tool, npm CLI, dev utility, or side project to open-source next for brand growth (not revenue), and answer the first gate questions about your brand goal, hard constraints, and measurable success criteria.

Validating OSS naming requires checking availability across npm, GitHub, domains, and social platforms to reduce negative-SEO risk before committing. This ensures your open-source project name is legally accessible and discoverable across your developer ecosystem.
Competitive saturation research evaluates niche, platform, pain, and hype scans to avoid building open-source tools in obsolete or weak-demand markets. It prevents launching products into ecosystems that already have too many similar solutions competing for attention.
Score multiple side project ideas using a two-axis evaluation that rates narrative coherence and user value separately. This brand-versus-product independent evaluation lets you intentionally weigh how well an open-source tool extends your portfolio against its standalone utility.
Yes, you can use this approach to select npm CLI tools, dev utilities, or side projects. The workflow applies specifically to comparing open-source ideas for brand growth rather than revenue, requiring constraint locking and a reality-check that results in a committed buildable spec.
