How it works

Four steps

Catalog, take one, packet, leave.

HoodStreet gave him the oats idea. This is that idea as a list: a named repo, an honest status, an owner — not the old saga of great expectations and a letdown.

  1. 1

    Pick a project with an honest status

    Live means you can run it. Salvageable means the hard part is done. Instructive is notes, not a gift. Seed is a breadcrumb. If we skip that, people feel dumped.

  2. 2

    Opt in with a name

    Saving it in this app is local, not ownership. The real opt-in is a DM or saying on Building Live: I will take this. 'The room' is not a founder.

  3. 3

    Copy the packet, take the keys

    Who it's for, what worked, what failed, next three steps, access, license. Private projects stay locked until STACC moves keys. Public ones you can clone today.

  4. 4

    Four weeks, then advisory

    STACC helps. After week four: questions and reviews, not the founder. Write the end date. Credit stays: you shipped it, oat by STACCoverflow.

Stage tags

  • Live

    Demo or repo you can actually run. Ready to hand off if someone takes it.

  • Salvageable

    The hard bit is done. Needs a named owner, not another weekend.

  • Instructive

    Dead or quiet, still a map. Read it. Do not ship it as live.

  • Seed

    Empty, renamed, or a breadcrumb. Not a gift. Not a dump.

Rules from STACC

  • Keep the ethos. Share the oats.
  • No forced face. No forced token.
  • Shipped by them, oat by you.
  • The goal is infinite oats with the homies.
  • Don't dump half-broken repos and call it sharing. Don't pitch unfinished work during NFT shopping hours.
